| First day actualy crawling!
Everyone should post pictures of their creepers out on the rocks here. Also tell about the time you had. Got to try out my 2 creepers and my buddy's moded axial (the creepers killed the axial). I had a blast and am amazed what these thing can do. Anyways here how it went. In the first picture the sign doesn't say no CRAWLING I am running solo on this one because the axial couldn't make it even close to where I am at!! It kept trying though?? I must say though I have a 45t in the red one and 55t in the green one and the 45t crawles alot better. Wish I would have went with a 45t in both of them.

Looks like a cool little area. Did you make it to the top of the waterfall?

Excellent. It's good to see there are more people my age out playing around with these little cars. |

Sure beats the cost of a full size rig! I'm about to be 32.... no shame here. Just breaking my creeper in now, and love it so far!

Looking good!! I hate to throw another motor in the mix... I stuck an integy 35T in my creeper using a sidewinder 1/10 ESC and CC BEC with stock gearing on 3s... after a bit of programing(throttle curves) its simply amazing how smooth it is and crawls slooooow with plenty of power... very nice wheel speed when ya need it I have a few projects going on now eating up my free cash... once done I can't wait to put in a GOOD 35T motor(homles or warrior) and see how much better it performs than the stock integy.

| Awsome! I got all my rigs ready, so lets just hope for good weather. Hope that berg don't eat or lunch to bad. Call me before you head out, or I'll call you in the morning.

Had another good day out crawling. 4 creepers, 2 axials, and a berg. We had a blast. Hey smashmetal we'll have to do it again soon. Last edited by hoplesshunter; 03-08-2009 at 04:32 PM. |

Hahaha, I just got back from the second go around. Was able to find a broken drill bit same size as the axle pin to get moving again. Moved the shocks up some more to get some belly clearance, sure helped. Here is my pic's. Another thing I learned this weekend is that I really need to get my son his own crawler. Now if i can get my Venom to do this id be set. Last edited by smashmetal; 03-08-2009 at 05:57 PM. |

Looks like a blast to have all those crawlers in the same area just playing around. I went out today and was about to start taking some video when my left rear axle stub broke. I got about 15 minutes of crawling in.

it's cool having a bunch of crawlers around but ya gotta be on constant look out. Like being in a day care full of babys. Your watching one, you go to step back and just about step on another.
