Default Lake Balboa Park Testing

A little easy for clods but what a 2.2 & Scale haven.
Rigs featured are my Unimog TLT and gregrocks90046's NN Clod.

Man I miss that mog, looks awesome, I am so glad it is in the hands of someone who appreciates it as much as I did. Love the new narrowed mashers too, very nice!

Yeah greg let me use those. I dunno they definitely worked but I think the geolanders could actually go anywhere those could. The mashers raised the COG too which led to more side tip overs. They look great though.

octigon - yeah that what greg and I were talking about. It's like a border for the playground that used to be in the center. Hopefully they're not removing all that. We actually were "legally" not supposed to be there because we were told all the rocks were closed. So I guess we'll have to really find out whats up before doing a GTG here.

it was definetly not built for r/c crawlers, although it looks like it. i relate it to skaters using swimming pools in the 70's.

Great vid. Nice low angles and the lack of people being everywhere added a scale touch. I would love to have a 2.2 scale GTG there.

BTW: I almost sharted my pants laughing at the jaws Mog!

I think it'd be perfect with just a touch more speed for certain obstacles. But yeah even with the small maxx masher's greg's NN is setup great.
