There have been requests for a Tank Trap, so make sure to waterproof your 2.2 Scale/Modifieds and 1.9 Scale/Modifieds, Comp rigs will stay High and dry.

Well I spent way to much time out there today, but I'm pretty happy with the results and looking forward to testing it.

The 1.9 Loose rock and debris section

The first technical area for the comp rigs

and the second area.

DAMN RIP!! I didn't know you were such a hoss! Did you move all those rocks on your own?

Well, I highly suggest that you do, pine ridge is F-ing awesome.

One more thing.

This course is a crawling course, don't let the dirt and pine trees fool you. Wheel speed is very important, but control and torque are the only way to make it. I'll be running Mashers and a 55t lathe.

Most of the course will be marked with flags, there will be no penalties for hitting flags you just have to get two wheels in between the flags to clear it or you get a TF penalty.

The alternate Comp course sections will be marked with tennis balls, those are gates and will have the standard gate penalties.

Anything on the course when the Comp starts is part of the course, do not clear debris.

I will try to get an extra stop watch but next week will be very busy for me, so if you have one bring it. Because of the length of this course we will need to alternate judges on every run. So Driver, Spotter and judge will need to be ready to start at the first gate before the current driver completes the course. We may even overlap drivers, the course is that long.

People with broken legs will be given a time bonus unless they kick arse than they will receive a penalty...LOL

Until it rains the rock will not be set, for safety reasons please do not walk on the rocks.

I have not driven the course or tested the obstacles, the temp was 99 yesterday and it kicked my ass, I may get out there with my Yota to test it, but probably won't get a crawler out there until comp day. So I'm jealous of anyone that gets to test the area, I recommend a hand broom to dust the rocks, they are covered in loose dirt and the traction will be minimum. Keep in mind I was trying to build a truck breaking course that would push the rig and driver to the limits, if it's to easy than I'll make it harder, if it's to harder than I'll make it harder...LOL
