Rockhugger and I had a great time, loved the slide too! Made it down ok, but watched and heard several rigs fall down hard onto the slab below, better line up proper and keep the throttle on slightly all the way down.

Damatheus, congratulations great job in Show n Shine with your detailed truck that looks and crawls great, nice driving too!


Enroute, excitement builds!




Night city and then crawling! My Va'Blazer and Rockhugger's custom pickup body modded TRX-4.






Badass old Tonka truck based rig




Dunno why the next two pics are sideways, I rotated and saved before uploading, wth?
Rockhugger concentrating on a technical line with his modded TRX4.




Casey trying and finally making a difficult line with his hardbody Sand Scorcher with 3d printed motor, accessories and the Tamiya driver, nice truck!




Steep large slab climb, then down a very steep ladder that liked to dump you right over on your lid if you weren't careful!



Great pictures guys and love the video Casey!

Yeah that area is my favorite I think, tons of fun. Though its so unforgiving its hard to stay there too long.
Yep got the tumble, though I missed Oscars, just got the audio but I think it painted a good enough picture to understand .

Yes, the shirts are 'maroon', or burgundy, or dark red, or whatever you want to call it. LOL
We get tired of the same ol' white, gray or black. Just be grateful they're not pink.

@Shinshu - cool trailer-camper.

Chris, if you can't get rid of them, I'll take one.

We can meet up at Ultimate or something.

Or CDM rocks...


Do you have an Ascender?

The shirts Proline did for the event weren't nearly as nice. It looked like they forgot to do something and at the last minute threw something up on the screen and said 'let's print this'.

I do! 3 of them in fact. 2 of them running, and 1 unbuilt kit.

The K10 RTR was supposed to be my Ascender, but my son staked his claim to it which is why I don't post much on it. The other running rig I haven't touched, because I'm mulling over whether to sell or keep it as a loaner for my son's cousins, and the kit is what I plan to post about when I get around to it.

I know, crazy....I bought a couple Proline shirts last year, but not this year. This year's shirt looked less than meh lol.

Ascender shirts came out great for second year in a row!
