Default shelljeep's Rock Garden Video thread

This will be a thread that I update periodically with video examples of different lines and obstacles in my backyard rock garden. Just learned to actually use software to edit my vids, so hopefully they will improve as time goes on. Will also be using a better cam soon as well.

Here's one with my 1.9 crawler to start things off. This was a continuous line I drove, but since it's only me, had to stop and reposition the camera occasionally. It shows the smaller of the gap jumps, and a steep high descent.

Good buddy o'mine just got this crawler and is trying it out for his first time. Dude is stoked. AX10 running gear, well set up in a UGC Fastback chassis, HH BRXL, VP Hertz dig, thing is nice.

The jump was defiantly a sweet maneuver, the rig looks great.

Had a big group over yesterday. All left happy, full of pulled pork and wanting to upgrade.
Had every intention of shooting lots of video but things got too busy. Here's another clip of the mini:

Man, I smoked that pig 26 hours. I looked at the bone and it JUMPED out of the roast for me. LOL J, you can take it for granted that if you make it over here, BBQ is gonna be here waiting.

That chassis is tits. It was so easy to get it bind free with good geometry, I can't say enough. Xcelorin 18.5 on 3s with an 18T pinion is a big contributor to it's succes too.

Hope you guys enjoy this, better resolution, 5 minutes long. Took me 9 1/2 hours to upload.
This is some footage of my buddy's berg rig, first time I've used a 4pk. Great rig, very forgiving, I'm not to smooth with it because I don't have the buttons memorized.
