Okay, getting down to decision time and I'm a little torn on which way to go:



SCX10
AE-2, 55T silver can, 2s or 3s power (3s in this case), 6600 mAh total 3s power available, stock AS-3 CMS, 645mg servo winch, R35 ripsaws, underdrive rear, all links upgraded as well as chubs and knuckles

Wraith
Eiger, 18.5T Ballistic, 2s only, ~12000 mAh available, 7955tg stock steering, no winch, R35 ripsaws, underdrive rear (uninstalled as of this moment), stock kit links, steering, chubs and knuckles upgraded

The Wraith is new and I'm still in the midst of the honeymoon but prep upgrades haven't gone quite the way I'd have hoped. In spite of the problems I've got a Wild Willy driver about 24 hours from taking the drivers seat and I think it'll be the more convincing ride (in spite of the clown axles and wheels that plague the Wraith). Anyway, I've got two days left to prepare and no more parts incoming, which way would you go?

I'd take both but plan to run the 1.9, they are more fun at a G6.

I'd say the decision has been made for me. Balance plug short today on a 2s 5000 mAh battery leaves me a ways down on power with the Wraith. SCX10 it is...

Attention Ruckus Juice & Jello RECON G6'ers it is DMC Time!

Drivers Meeting Challenge



Whose up for starting their adventure a week early? Yes. No. It doesn't matter. The DMC is not mandatory, but highly recommended.

What is this challenge, you ask? It is an online adventure. Answer the questions or complete the tasks for a chance for swag, stage bonuses, or just plain ole satisfaction, but most importantly, do it for Fun!

Let's get started.

Ruckus Juice & Jello RECON G6 DMC

1. What flavor of Jello will you use and why?

2. Share a picture of what you will be driving in Oregon's first ever RECON G6 on the RECON G6 FB page and here, in this thread. Does your scaler have a name? If so, what is it?

3. Link your favorite scale video from the following producers;

- Rivasconcepts - YouTube

- EXTREME SCALE PERFORMANCE - YouTube

- HOYFAB - YouTube

- Rapid Rhino Productions - YouTube

- http://www.youtube.com/user/ferndogg310

Note: These producers rely on organic views & subscribers only. To the best of my knowledge, no bought views or subscribers have been associated with them. Just pure view finder talent and a passion for scale rc.

4. Have you seen the Captain? Axial has a BOLO out on Captain Axial. Find a pic of the missing Captain Axial and post it on the RECON G6 FB page. First pic, first to post. Do not re post a pic that has been someone has already shared.

Bonus Points for pics with rc legends or rc babes.

5. SMC Batteries are the Official Batteries of the RECON G6. If you could design a battery, what would be the ideal battery for the RECON G6? Post your answer here and at, https://www.facebook.com/smcracing

Bonus Question

The Bautista Terror Pull Sled has claimed many a victim. In one senctenct, describe how you will put the beat down on the Baustista Terror.


Have fun, G6'ers & as always, Good Luck!

Warpig will be transporting freshly cooked DSPro Turkeys to the event for purchase. Cooked to FDA standards, injected with Donkey-Berry Schrek Go-Gurt, then flash frozen. Serving tray is about 1.5" long.

Probably $2 each, unless he paints them all fancy.

This is one of the sickest scale items I've ever seen. You are a mad genius, Mr. Gerrish & I love you!

I was planning on bringing the 6x6 I'm building, but I have a feeling I won't have it ready by then. In which case I will bring my Class 2 truck.

1. What flavor of Jello will you use and why?

Great question, whatever color I kind find pre-made at a nearby convenience store because, well, convenience.

2. Share a picture of what you will be driving in Oregon's first ever RECON G6 on the RECON G6 FB page and here, in this thread. Does your scaler have a name? If so, what is it?



Well my vengeful hand of god co-driver call it "daddy's monster truck" so we'll go with that.

3. Link your favorite scale video from the following producers;

I seem to still have this bookmarked:

Wraith Craze - YouTube

4. Have you seen the Captain? Axial has a BOLO out on Captain Axial. Find a pic of the missing Captain Axial and post it on the RECON G6 FB page. First pic, first to post. Do not re post a pic that has been someone has already shared.

Snitches get stitches. I see nothing.

5. SMC Batteries are the Official Batteries of the RECON G6. If you could design a battery, what would be the ideal battery for the RECON G6? Post your answer here and at, https://www.facebook.com/smcracing

I leave the thinking to the professionals.

Blue....it brings great karma

2. Share a picture of what you will be driving in Oregon's first ever RECON G6 on the RECON G6 FB page and here, in this thread. Does your scaler have a name? If so, what is it?
Brush Buster......seems to find itself stuck in tumble weeds when busting through the desert

Already posting links to these guys from twitter and fb page....in fact I need to get these guys on interview of my podcast so they can self promo from there

4. Have you seen the Captain? Axial has a BOLO out on Captain Axial. Find a pic of the missing Captain Axial and post it on the RECON G6 FB page. First pic, first to post. Do not re post a pic that has been someone has already shared. Bonus Points for pics with rc legends or rc babes.

The Captain is off for the weekend ..... He has been replaced by Jean Luc Pecard.....but he is currently crossing the border, which is okay because they don't speak english anyway.....

5. SMC Batteries are the Official Batteries of the RECON G6. If you could design a battery, what would be the ideal battery for the RECON G6? Post your answer here and at, https://www.facebook.com/smcracing

It would be solar powered and run a gyro stabalizer

Bonus Question The Bautista Terror Pull Sled has claimed many a victim. In one senctenct, describe how you will put the beat down on the Baustista Terror.

At this point I will grab a plate of nachos and cheer for the BT.....I am often found cheering for the bull at rodeos as well....
