Belle Isle Richmond, VA I need some pictures of the area, looking to possibly do a national event there. Any help with pics and info would be appreciated. John |
Belle Isle Richmond, VA Here’s a couple pics of the area and a few small events that have been held there, nothing on a national level as far as I’ve been a member of the group, but would be pretty stoked if there was some more major interest in it. I really love the terrain in the whole park. It’s mostly slick rock, but it has everything, truly an Rc crawlers dream! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...13df14eea5.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c4666a3b36.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...82a7e4685d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...558a8380c7.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f98447b2df.jpg |
Re: Belle Isle Richmond, VA Looks awesome for Scale, any comp Crawler guys drive there? Great pics, do you have any more of the Rocks? |
Re: Belle Isle Richmond, VA John, I have reached out to some of the crawlers I know here for more pics of Belle Isle. This is a state park which has a web page with some pics. Richmondoutside.com » Belle Isle (JRPS) I also sent you a PM with a contact that might be able to help. |

Re: Belle Isle Richmond, VA This where where VARCOR ruled when there was comp crawling in VA. Sadly it does not have accessibility for a National event. Difficult and long trek for that kind of event. Also its very sensitive to rain, one day it can be above water and the next below depending on mountain rain/snow melt. Kbrog, Mariner, and I have crawled every inch of that place. |
Re: Belle Isle Richmond, VA If there was a scheduled event with the city aware, I'm sure they could open up the access roads to get vehicles onto Belle. Sent from my SM-N950U1 using Tapatalk |

What Rowdy said. Even on a good day it still has many water dangers on all courses. |
Re: Belle Isle Richmond, VA Anybody going to the event down there May 12th? Saw a sign for an event there at Hobby Town, plan on taking my 5 year old son down so he can check it out, see if he takes some interest in RC by seeing other people running, etc. |
Re: Belle Isle Richmond, VA Hi folks. I live in Charlottesville and am just getting back into the RC Crawling scene. I'm a bit older - owned a ton of Tamiya cars/trucks back in the 80's and recently pulled the trigger on a new RedCat Gen 8. (Yes, I know it isn't an Axial - please don't judge me.) Is anyone in the area or is there a club to join so we can get together? Thanks. Looking forward to meeting new folks and diving back into this great hobby. --T |
Re: Belle Isle Richmond, VA I live just outside of Richmond in Mechanicsville and would be interested in crawling some rocks sometime if anyone is up for it...I also have a Gen 8 |
Re: Belle Isle Richmond, VA Where and when does the group meet up. I have a Traxxas TRX-4 Land Rover and Thinking about getting my son a Traxxas TRX-4 Sport. We would be interested in viewing and participating in the fun. Thanks, Brett |
