Works pretty good.

Gotta go to my sister's wedding on saturday, but Sunday I'm free.

Would be interested in meeting up at Horn of the Moon or East Barre damn. Or heck, even the parking lot at Black Rock Coal is tons of fun.

Hey it's been awhile since I been on here, heck it's been a while since I crawled with my shitty cliff climber. Got some plans for a new build. Just got back from Afghanistan. It sucked but wish I had my climber prolly would have been fun. I'd be up for a gtg but my blazers altinater decided to stop working so without a truck right now. But east barre Dam I used to crawl all the time and is alot of fun just wish I had a better crawler. Working on a Moa berg build.

Whenever works. I live less than five minutes from the East Barre Damn. My AX-10 and SCX are ready to rock.

Give my cell a call if you'd like to meet up and crawl. 1-802-917-3067

Well I got my blazer fixed finally. Thanks for asking if I needed help with the altinater but I got it. I know most everything to do on my vehicles. But I am looking for a good deal on a tranny flush and filter change. My tranny bucks like a mule when shifting and the fluid looks like shit just haven't had what most shops are asking. There all asking like 200 bucks. For me right now with out a job I can't afford that, 100 is pushing it. A hundred dollar altinater put me in the whole. But anyways sorry I missed the gtg this weekend was my sisters gradutation and we had family come up from southern nh. Just let me know the next time any of you are going to east barre dam. My email is irbfishing13@aim.com. I check that all the time so that's the best way to get a hold if me.

Yeah, don't you just hate it when technology doesn't cooperate.

I was up at the washout on Brook road last weekend, which sucks, but man there is some good crawling left behind.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that has found enjoyment in washed out roads.. I also had a blast on a section of washed out road this spring.. Was just wide enough for 1/10 scale crawling. Unfortunately they fixed it. It's not like anyone depended on the road or anything, it was just part of a resevoir and nature area so I was hoping they would've left it longer.

Found this little spot Monday on Rt12.











Then it cartwheeled a couple times off a rock and broke the plastic knuckle. I have aluminum ones on the way



Ill be going back when my parts come in.

Uh, Hyde802, is your body reinforced with digital camo duct tape? Cause that is straight Vermonter right there. "I'll just cover it in camo and noone will even notice!". I'm personally a Goop and layers of lexan on the inside kind of guy, but whatever works.
