I also only trimmed the foam with scissors, I also found out now, it works better with a sharp hobby knife, to get the star pattern.

Im most likely building TOT06 a TLT so I might just sell them to him, and buy me new ones.

Be wary with TOT06, there is a feedback thread about him.

There was more to the story than being mad at the WARCRC comp. His grandpa died the day before the comp. He was a bit stressed out, to say the least.:-(

Ok, so I am a day late in putting a response in. Still licking my wounds from getting beat by Brit....LOL. Honestly, good job Brit, good to see you out there giving us old guys a run for our money and keeping us on a narrow path. Good job and keep it up, looks like you have your dads crawling blood in ya. I had a great time, it was good to meet Mike, Tanis, Brit and Spence and hook with the others from last time. To say the least, it was definately fun and everything I imagined. Great people out having a great time, sharing idea's, cheering each other on and helping one another so everyone had a great time win or lose. A special thanks to Cory and Nate for setting up the course and keeping score. Mike if I left you out, forgive me but I do thank you for the advice as well as everybody else that has included some. I cant wait for another gtg and especially another comp. Us Spokane guys will get some video of our local area's and get the group up here.
PS- saw the video of the Yakima Area Nate, looks great.

Yo Mike, I think them scores should tell ya that YOU don't need rear steer! Good job man at throwing it back together in a rush and making it out to spank our azz's with a 12" WB rig for that matter. I wish I could have watched you go up the 1st gate on corse 2, that was a tuffy!

I am very proud of her, she does a great job for how much wheel time she has. She only has at the most 4hrs of crawling time, if you put it all together, and most of that is actual competing. Now that the weather has warmed up, and I have a truck of my own, we are going to start practicing together, I already know I am going to have to sit on my "humbled" stool, a lot more soon, as she gets better from actually practicing.

Like you need your truck to be more capable:-P , your setup is really good, Mike, it was a pleasure to watch it work the gates.

Mike had the line nailed, stay as far left as you could on the offcamber without rolling over, then hard right when your rightrear tire hit the ledge. That was the toughest obstacle on both courses. It was tough even for the supers.
