Traction Reaction Intel

- A tow strap is mandatory.
- A winch in not mandatory, but highly recommended.
- 10 scale items is mandatory. (An Axial RTR meets this requirement)
- 10 coal mining scale items are not mandatory, but highly recommended.
- A 1”x 1” minimum soap carving of your choice is not mandatory, but is required to enter the Drivers Club. All soap carvings must be turned into G Central prior to the day stage.
- A spare tire is not mandatory, but highly recommended and may or may not be used for a driver challenge.
- A scale white lotus flower is not mandatory, but highly recommended.
- A scale boat, canoe, kayak, innertube, or raft is mandatory for the day stage. Not having a scale boat may result in a time penalty, driving penalty, or pink tutu wearing penalty.
- Having a scale Pittsburgh Steeler bumper sticker on your G Ride / Scaler is not mandatory, but highly recommended.

Traction Reaction Stage Intel

- Each RECON G6 Stage will feature some of Mother Nature’s sickest Pennsylvania terra firma.
- The day stage will consist of three loops. Two will push the limits of driver and scaler. The third will tattoo a driver and truck if driving smart is not practiced. One loop may or may not have you enjoying Lake Cristy.
- There may or may not be any “clear dirt” on the night stage.

Shhhh, can you hear that East Coast? The G Train is coming. Pit Bull Tires & White Lotus Tattoo & Art Gallery have scheduled the first East Coast RECON G6 at the infamous Rausch Creek Off-Road Park.

Hmmm, The "Right" Coast is surely in for a good time. I'm headed to the "Promised Land" of NFL Greatness! I have a feeling the spirit of 6 Superbowl Rings may have an adverse affect on the stage of the RECON G6 Traction Reaction presented by Pit Bull Tires and White Lotus Tattoo.

So "Ready for Anything" may be just the ticket!

See ya soon, my Friend.

Never, just hard to get away from work and life 2 weeks in a row.

Looking forward to pics and vids!

[Jslick]

Since they are local and can be found up there, I will be carving a bear.

[Jslick]

Can you spectate at these events? My daughter and I have never been and want to check it out and we only have a stock Wraith and stock Yeti. We would like to check it out and then get the rigs ready over time for the next one.

Thanks for the info!

Yes, I don't see why not, it is a great way to learn which upgrades are best for this type of event.

Yes. Come out and spectate, but an Axial stock rig is ready right out of the box for a RECON G6.

I can't tell you how many stock rtr's have finished a RECON G6. Besides, the best way to learn is to participate. You would not be the first drivers to come to watch and wish they would have participated.

Do Work, Tower513 & get your fix in the first East Coast RECON G6!

Yes it is, jmz6, but driving in an event gives you much better info.

[jmz6]

True. The best way to learn what it is all about, is to just jump in and get your feet wet.

Ok, you guys convinced me!

I signed up for the day 2.2 adventure for my stock wraith with 16/84 gearing.

If I get my yeti in time could I use that instead?

[Tower513]

Oh yeah,

Parker, your tag line of "Do Work" is also my tag line as a career firefighter assigned to a ladder truck! Have a cool Do Work sticker on my helmet!

Yes Sir. We had two Yeti's run in Buena Vista, CO and they both finished. They worked for it, but they finished. Bring'em both and you can decide what to run when ya get there.
