Im new to this, I have a SCX10 Jeep. What are considered scale items? I have in my Jeep. Ammo box, 2 guns, a fuel cell, a little army driver dude and a spare tire on the back. I can order a tow strap and see if I can find some more scale items. What else do I need? ANY TIPS please. I missed the last one in Sparks and went out and bought this SCX10 so I could go to the G6 after that. Thank you!!!

There are many simple things you can make yourself. A bundle of firewood, a coil of string for a rope. make a tow strap out of a long shoe lace with a couple of "s" hooks from the hardware store.

It sounds like your excellent on scale items. How much battery do you have?

[RC Aquatic]

So today I made 2 tow straps, one is thin coated medal wire kind with hooks on each end, the other is nylon rope with hoops, 2 bungee cords, and a skateboard.

I have Two 2s Duratrax Onyx 5000mah lipos and a Turnigy 5000mah. I do have a small 2200 3s 2200mah but I only use it for speed runs in my street cars.

Tow straps are fairly simple to make...I suck at making stuff....so it is really easy....shoe lace, s-clips, shoo goo, and heat shrink tubing. A few vids out there....here is one...

Sorry....missed this post...saw the other one.sounds like you are on the right track. I am new to scale world, and the G6 is an incredible experience. The people, the rigs, everything.

Take a small camera, a good attitude, and pack a lunch.... You are going to have fun. Semper Gumby....be flexible at all times. My first one I expected it to be all regimented and have a specific agenda. I had to quickly learn its like a semi formal get together, which is great....nobody stresses out.

The atmosphere is that of "community". Be ready to jump in and give a tow, help somebody carry gear to the car, set up a tarp, etc. A G6 is like nothing else....you will love it.

Just Paypaled you for my entry.

Im wondering if forest hill road is better than the road out of colfax, forest hills looks alot straighter

[BentMetaL]

2 HOURS ON THE COLFAX ROAD. 1 HOUR AND A FEW MINS ON THE FOREST HILL ROAD. I'm not yelling it's the best way.

[Norcal_GIT_r]

Iowa Hill rd through Colfax is a very slow and winding road. It's a beautiful road if you're not in a hurry.
I'll be going down to Auburn to get there and I live a couple of minutes east of Colfax.

[BentMetaL]

Yelp I believe everyone from Sac and the valley will choose this route. I'm looking at 3 hrs from Antioch.

[Norcal_GIT_r]

If you're coming from the west go to Auburn don't go to Colfax.
