you guys should check out the varcor site and sign up for our next comp this weekend in fredericksburg. 2.2 comp and 2.2 scale classes.

I think we should, but we all must be a bunch of wusses. More into outdoor in the warmer weather, or you are just a bunch of young bucks, and us old farts can't take it

For a temporarily transplanted Florida ol' man, it is darned cool up here right now and any outdoor event for me consists of making it from my apartment to my car. Brrrrrr

Still, it could be a great experience. But that is why I wanted to get my feet wet on the indoor track before embarking on the real outdoors.

Well my tuber is 90% finished. Just need to make a skid and fix the dig linkage.

Runs pretty good though. Hope to bring it by next week.

DanielJaxon · 01-16-2009, 10:07 AM

Sweet! Hope to see you crawling next wednesday night.

onefstsnake · 01-16-2009, 03:54 PM

hopefully. I might be working that night though.

onefstsnake · 01-17-2009, 05:59 PM

Yeah Im working Wednesday night. Ill be up there tomorrow sometime to test my rig out.

quickster47 · 01-18-2009, 05:03 AM

I finally got down to the store yesterday, Saturday that is, and was impressed with what they have setup. And as simple as it might look, take my word for it, it ain't that easy. That ol' adage about "crawl before you walk" takes on a whole new meaning.

So, I look forward to my next trip down to indoor quarry on Wednesday evening.

onefstsnake · 01-18-2009, 11:25 AM

Yeah looks pretty challenging. Ill be heading down there in a bit.

onefstsnake · 01-19-2009, 08:26 PM

Well I took my truck to Hobby Town to do some testing.
Rig ran great. No real big problems and nothing broke!

Really didnt have any problems getting around the course.

Ill be there Wednesday night.

ON THE ROCKS · 01-25-2009, 08:20 PM

quickster47..it was nice to meet you that night..i definately would like to see more of that kyosho rock force..seems to good box stock

onefstsnake...that tuber you got built looks SICK...turned out very nice

onefstsnake · 01-25-2009, 08:35 PM

Ill be there. Going to be testing out a few things.

Might make some new body panels too lol.

onefstsnake · 01-25-2009, 08:47 PM

Some recent pics of my rig.

ON THE ROCKS · 01-25-2009, 09:03 PM

sounds good.....what kind of servo did you have on your dig unit that burned up ? was it a high torque or a standard...

onefstsnake · 01-25-2009, 09:37 PM

645mg

quickster47 · 01-26-2009, 04:47 AM

onefstsnake, that really is a nice frame. Did you do all the work on it? I admire those who have some of those unique mechanical fabrication skills.

Carl

onefstsnake · 01-26-2009, 05:37 PM

I didnt make the frame. Its an RC4WD Copperhead.
I made the links, skid plate and a few other parts.

CrwlrPrtTym · 01-29-2009, 10:41 AM

Well-Well, It seems that Mr. Frost and Daniel are throwing in additional obstacles. The course is looking good and does present a challenge for us newbys. I can mention one of the coolest things I have seen so far was a custom crafted piece of art. If I catch it again I will be sure to have the camera ready. AWESOME STUFF!!!

C-Ya!

salteen · 01-29-2009, 12:03 PM

Man I have to stop by one of these Wednesdays...I keep forgetting

Do any MRCs show up on Wednesdays or am I going to be a loner?

I really want to do some comps up there...it'd be fun and it'd give me a reason to get the new Losi

Salteen- I think the forcast is calling for the LOSI reception in March or at least that is what I am hearing. It looks like a nice rig. I also heard there is a Venom Creeper roaming around the course. I'm anxious to see it in action. There is a regular crowd that shows up on Wednesday nights. They are folks you used to race with during the HTown Wdbg. series. Chances are you wil not be a loner... C-Ya down there.
