I'm trying to put a face with the Bronco, have a pic of your rig? I get confused going to these things and trying to cross reference screen names with real names.

They are made from wood, then covered with mesh, after that he used burlap dipped in plaster. Then they were primed and painted. Dave had to add some grip.

Had a great time Saturday at the comp. Glad that there was as big a turn-out as there was. Lots of new faces crawling and plenty of spectators. I think a few scorpions are going to be bought here soon.
I think everything went fairly smooth, however we did learn some things to make it even more smooth next time. The course was not as easy as everyone thought it might be, which was good, and it wasn't impossible either (except the Finals bonus gate, I don't even think Franks' super made it up that beast).

Thanks to Dave and Ned and HobbyTown USA. I'm glad that VARCOR was able to work them to help make this event what it was. Looking forward to the next one.

Yep, Hopewell it is. I go by your way every single day to work and my gf lives down Rt 10 in Chester so I'm always going through Enon. I had a small rock garden in my yard, but most of it went to the course at HobbyTown. Have you heard of City Point in Hopewell? I go there occasionally to test out my trucks since it is 5 minutes from my house. I'd like to see what you set up. We'll definitely have to get up!

Yeah, I know where City Point is. I realized that I actually have a ton of space to set up a course...just a lot of work to get it done!

Did anyone happen to get any pics of either of my trucks while I was on the courses? I had the bright green Jeep Rubicon 2.2 comp and the dark green D90 1.9? I want a new background and I didn't get any pics of my trucks.

Also, anyone with any pics, please post up for everyone to see. I've seen a couple vids from Thor and SlypDawg but I know I saw about a dozen cameras taking pics, so let's see them.
