Had a solo practice session between comps today, just thought I'd share with my RS10 bros. Enjoy! |

That looks like an incredibly nice spot. Also, I dig your battery mount.

Yeah, that place is pretty awesome. The rock is super grippy, you can pull off some amazing lines there. I also was really happy with the battery mount, it's made from a plastic junction box cover from ace hardware. It's really strong plastic, and easy to work with.

Very nice...I'm somewhat tempted to try a mount like that on my rig. If you ever want to do a how-to write up on that battery mount I'll post it on the first post of the tips and tricks thread.

Thanks! I actually placed 2nd overall in the winter series for the novice class, I was happy considering this was my first crawler and first comp season. This rig is so different since I got 6 months ago, I think it does pretty good. We'll see how it does in the pro class this season coming up, Boston Crawlers has some serious talent and some serious rigs to back them up. Hopefully I can put up a good show with the RS10, already some are impressed with what it's capable of and frankly so am I |

Thanks for the compliments guys, I am actually in the process of painting up a new bug body for it! I'll post up some pics before she gets all scratched up at the next comp this weekend.
