Brian-

Great to see you on the forum. I'm glad to hear you are getting into crawlers and stocking parts. I will come by and see what you have since I can always use more parts. Thank you so much for setting up a crawling course. This will really go a long way to ensuring you are the "crawler guy" in Nooga Town.

[sddill]

Wow I just saw this thread Can't believe I missed it....We will defiantly be down to check this out...Are you around on Saturdays ??

[MountainGoat]

First up to Brian,,,,,AWSOME man! Glad to see you got sighned in and every thing I have been wanting you to check out the post and see that we only say mostly some times good things about you! lol Anyway good to hear about the shippments I can't wait to come in and check them out I will prob stop by tomorrow morning for a bit I have to close but can always just shop for a bit!

Next , Brian is open Mon threw Sat right now and anyone close to come to check out his shop, and maybe if your nice he will show the area that the course is getting started in. He also said its fine to have an out door....we'll start on that as the weather gets warmer!

[Harvo]

You do want some real rock for the indoor course too right? We are trying to get a rock train (3 trucks) lined up in the next week or so to get you some.

Did the skids work out for what you needed? The pics look good. I'll try to get in sometime next week to check it out.

Good to see you on here Brian. I haven't met you yet but I have heard all about you. My suggestions for some stock items would be some quality crawler sized lipo batteries and related supplies.... some of the new crawler tires and foams, some crawler bodies, various 4 and 5 inch shocks and springs and plenty of rod ends

Oh yeah... the hot new crawler will be the Losi 1/10 roller crawler coming out in March

[cavie98]

hello to all. Brian, glad you posted up. i hope everyone gets to see what we are getting done. i'm glad to hear you got some parts in. i agree that you are going to need bodies, tires and, other parts to be able to hop-up the rigs. sorry to those who are working on the course with me, i will not be able to get to work on the course until after the first of march due to work and being out of town. once i get back i will be in full swing. we have gotten some great ideas from those who have helped. the truck loads of rock will help greatly. i also have some railroad ties that lunatik888 is going to get from my house when i get back into town. i hope we have a great turnout when we have the first gtg. more later.

[sddill]

How much room do you have outside to set up some courses ??? Think we could ever get it big enough to hold comps here ??? Hey Harvo with all the $$$ you got you should just call Jackie Evans and have a couple dump truck loads of river rock brought in

[lunatik888]

yeah Harvo. get us a truck load or two.:-P

[cavie98]

there is quite a bit of room outside. i'll try to get some pics of the area outside to get everyone's .02. it kinda backs up to a hill and it is a pretty long area, so we could build a good size course. hopefully we can get all the rocks that everyone is saying that we can get, that would be superb.
thanks to harvo for the pallets. we do need some plywood and 2x4's for building platforms and other structures.

That's crazy talk right there

[THE PARTS GUY]

I PLAN ON HAVING A BIG COURSE OUTSIDE. AS LONG AS ALL THE CRAWLER GUYS SUPPORT MY SHOP, I WILL PUT WHAT EVER YOU GUYS WANT FOR THE COURSE OUT THERE. THE AREA OUTSIDE IS BIG ENOUGH TO PUT 50 DUMP TRUCK LOADS OUT THERE IF YOU WANT. ALL THE GUYS INTERESTED, SEND ME A LIST OF THE PARTS YOU GUYS WOULD LIKE ME TO STOCK IN MY STORE. ALOT OF AXIAL AND GOLDEN HORIZONS PARTS ARE ROLLING IN. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT SERVOS YOU GUYS USE ON THE CRAWLERS. IF YOU WANTED YOU CAN PUT 2 COURSES OUTSIDE. I PROMISE THAT NOBODY WILL BE DISAPOINTED.

I WILL TAKE THE STEP TO MAKE SURE THAT IN CHATTANOOGA, YOU SAY CRAWLER, YOU WILL KNOW BRIAN'S HOBBYLAND INC.
STORE HOURS ARE MON-SAT 9AM-6PM. SUMMERTIME HOURS WILL BE LONGER ON FRIDAYS AND SATURDAYS.

DON'T FORGET TO COME BY AND SHARE SOME IDEAS WITH ME.

[lt99ls1]

Wow, I dont check the board for few days and a indoor crawl track pops up 30 minutes from my house.

[MountainGoat]

Hello all! I just wanted to update every one I will be at the store tomorrow to do a little odd's and ends to the track and get some more plans together for furthering the build. We can still use rock and other materials, I have gotten with Danny and am going to try to do a moch up this week or next useing fiberglass resin to see if this will over take the plaster that we where going to use on some of the higher sections to save on weight. So anyway one that wants to stop by and either say hey or lend a hand let me know, or just stop on by!! To Brian can't wait to see what all you have got!!

[cavie98]

hey guys, what's up. just checking on the thread. i'm glad to see that everyone is taking interest in the course(s). brian, i'm glad you got some stuff in. bodies and some different chassis would be good. some scale parts also. go ahead and get the rocks here if you can. if we have the rock there we can get to work as soon as it warms up. has anyone done any more work on the course? can't wait until 1st of march to get back to work. got a guy looking at getting us a discount on some resin for the indoor course build. anybody else have any hook-ups please post up. see ya.

[sddill]

We went and checked out Brians yesterday they have a good start on the indoor course and he has allot of axial parts in now I think this is going to be great...A place to get parts and a place to crawl.. I'm just glad we have a local shop showing some interest so everybody needs to support him by buying parts there when possible

[scoutinaround]

We are still needing rocks mainly I am going to try to get some more this weekend from out in soddy. Anyway come on by and check it out Brian's is getting a lot of parts in to sell for the crawlers and his shop will also do consighnment sells.(hope thats spelled right!)
