Default 3 new crawlers 3 new mad torque

I would like to start off by saying hello, myself and two buddies all just ordered mad torque's.

Also starting a back yard crawler course. Will be adding pics of the crawlers and the course as we go.

We have a lot of area to work with, and plenty of rocks that just need to be hauled in.

Also a great ravine to work with.

Thinking of doing a terrain park around that tree like rcsparks has in some of his videos.

We have had two casulities here, one lost the set screw that holds on the front hub, other one fried the Esc buy putting a connector on a new battery pack backwards.



Getting mine ready for 4ws and skid plates

I don't plan ( don't plan lol) to do much modding to this model...... We will see what happens, but I do know it won't be for awhile.

OK we have made a lot of progress on the terrain park portion of the area.


Dirt and stumps on one side, rocks on the other.




Stumps ranging from 1/2" to 4" tall at approx 45 degs


Also at 45 degs


Look we had a 1/12 desert runner crash on the course.



45 deg log ramp

in a couple of the pictures I see a car with the front up against a tree and the front wheels off.
it also seems to be partly dug in. looking like it had crashed and been abandoned.

believing it was done on purpose (artistic license), I thought it was "cute".
no offense meant.
