wish i could make it! i wont be back in town until later in the evening. Let me know next time you plan a trip.. Def. want to check out that spot.

93yjpiece · 10-18-2009, 11:16 PM

My roomate and I crawl on VT's campus and at a church near campus, I dont have any pictures on my computer but I will try to get some soon. I think we are going to go to the dam to try that for the first time around 3-5 on the Oct 19th. We'll have to put a group together sometime, my roomate has an ax-10 and I have a pieced together 2.2, and a 1.9 tube chassis scale rig.

My ex was from Radford! Spent many holidays in the area. If I was still coming up on holidays I would come crawle with you guys

jsowens · 10-19-2009, 08:32 AM

93yjpiece, dunno if you'll see this in time, but me and adale4130 will be at the dam this evening around 5:30ish. I'll send you a pm and we'll try to get a small group together today.

Fishmaxx, if you're ever in the area, send us a PM and we'll do some crawlin'

adale4130 · 10-19-2009, 07:15 PM

had fun today guys. nice meeting the both of you.

will def. do it again soon.

and i love my new torsion chassis

... pleasantly surprised me

awd199 · 10-19-2009, 08:58 PM

I guess you got your drive shaft issue fixed.

jsowens · 10-19-2009, 09:02 PM

haha more like he ghetto rigged his driveshaft...but whatever works. Today was fun...always good having new folks show up. We need to have a big get together sometime at the dam

awd199 · 10-19-2009, 09:14 PM

If it works, it works. I have been thinking how to fab up a servo mount for my rig. When I got home I checked the bolts that hold the mount down. One was loose. The threads in the axle tube are stripped. I have an idea though, I think it will work. Yea a big dam gtg would be good. Maybe next month. I am sure there will be a warm weekend in November.

93yjpiece · 10-19-2009, 10:07 PM

nice meeting yall too, great spot to crawl. Hopefully I get enough time to get everything in order to get out thier friday, I'll let yall know.

BlueDodgeRam · 10-20-2009, 01:14 AM

good meeting you guys today, the dam is definitely our new spot. probably see ya friday, hopefully my axial will have some new meats by then

adale4130 · 10-20-2009, 10:31 AM

yeah,.. i fixed the driveshaft.. it will get me through untill i get the funds to order a new set hopefully.. im still shopping around. Those MIP's do look pretty sweet! Also got bored and made a full torsion chassis on sunday. So far... im loving it. Def. different.. but in a good way. nice and predictable

adale4130 · 10-23-2009, 09:22 PM

I think we need to have a huge Get Together here at the LRD. I dont know what everyone's schedule looks like.. but maybe we could all start planning something for November?

Im free everyday except the 1st and the 22nd. and of course turkey day.
Otherwise i can be there anytime. Anyone interested?

shadowwalking · 10-23-2009, 09:29 PM

Yeah I am interested.
We also could plan to go to Lil' Moab (Roanoke) one Sat or Sun.
I know everyone wants to go back and you guys have said you want to go too.
Someone needs to pick a day and see what happens.

shadowwalking · 10-23-2009, 09:30 PM

(Now if I could just figure out why my post count will not go above 3 ?) LOL

jsowens · 10-23-2009, 10:17 PM

I'm definitely up for planning something. Typically my off days are Mondays and Fridays, but if i know in advance I can swap days at work. The only weekend that's really out of the question for me is the first weekend in November. I'm visiting the family that weekend. I wouldn't mind checking out Lil' moab also. Let's make both happen

adale4130 · 10-24-2009, 09:49 AM

Whats the weekend of the 7th and 8th looking like for everyone?

shadowwalking · 10-24-2009, 08:02 PM

Fine with me as long as the weather is decent.

jsowens · 10-24-2009, 08:11 PM

that may be the weekend I'm going home...the weekend after that would be much more possible for me...it would also give me more time in advance to swap a day at work with someone.

awd199 · 10-25-2009, 07:24 PM

The 7th or 8th would be good for me. I am doing a comp in AL the next weekend on the 14th.

bluezephyr · 10-29-2009, 02:31 PM
