It's the National Monument near Grand Junction. I've got a couple friends that live out there. We found a few spots to play, need to go back and look some more though.

Thanks.

You can sign up with Google video here.
http://video.google.com/

While watching any video, you can click the "More from this user" tab. It'll display all videos uploaded by the maker of the video you are watching.

Thanks for the compliments.

The song is a re-make of Tom Sawyer by Rush. The band is Mindless Self Indulgence. I hated it the first few times I heard it, but it's grown on me. I also hacked the crap out of it to make it fit the video, it was too short.

I know the specs for your rig are somewhere on this site, but I was not able to find them. Can you post them? I was most impressed by its capabilities. I could see a Revolver, SW2 chassis (I would worry if it was something else) and I assume a 12.5" wheelbase. Do you have weight in the tires? It looks like it has wideners as well...?

Nice rig and you can tell you are a good driver as well. My durability testing would have lasted all day and I never would have made it up any of those rocks. I liked the elevator, I would love to tackle that one.

Sweet films Fred. I never get tired of watching the bug in action.

This video Google thing pisses me off though cuz I cannot save them to my computer and watch them while on the airplane to China.

Here's a link to my 2.2 build thread.
Shaggin' Wagon.......Stage 2 Build-up

I am running an Outrunner Revolver motor, Mamba 25 ESC combo. SW2 chassis, wideners in the front only. I do have weight in the wheels, 6oz in the front (3oz per wheel), 3oz in the rear (1.5oz per wheel).

Thanks for the compliments guys.

Grizz you can't download them?

Well...yes I can but I don't wanna use "Google Video Player". I would like to watch them on WMP like I do all my other videos. Plus since the laptop is a work machine I don't like downloading lots of stuff onto it.

I've got a couple DVD's I can hook you up with, that'll keep you busy for 2 of the 20+ hours you're in the air. :-P
