New Club Starting

[Warthog]

There's an awful lot of crawlers in the Charleston/Nitro etc area, so I'm trying to get something organized :-P so we don't have to drive so far for comps and gtgs. If you like crawling and are interested promoting the sport, and friendly competition, sharing ideas etc. please send an email to:

jcburn2@gmail.com

HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON !

[dirtmonkey912]

I live 30 min from charelston off i-79 about an hour and 30 min from p-burg but im flexible on travel i have to drive an hour just to get to a hobby shop so it doesnt bother me to drive for a meet.

This wouldn't happen to be the Jimmy that used to work at hobby town would it? If so, it is your fault I got hooked on crawlers. I don't know if you remember me since it has been awhile, but this is Manny from up in Flatwoods.

Yep...its him. He was a pusher for yrs. Fed my addiction quite a bit.

I am in Parkersburg. We need to get some of these WV boys together at a location for a big meet and greet and a GTG.

[t_kirl]

I would be down for a GTG, if I'm in home. I'm in Parkersburg by the way, I don't mind driving a couple hours away.

Racer4life is right... Its me. I remember you manny. Hows its been? Now... in my defense, I never forced you guys into the shop. I cant help it that I stocked what you guys needed... Its not my fault I had crawlers on the counter all the time... OK im guilty.

Now about this club... I dont care if we form a legit club or not, we just need to do regular gtgs. I will travel to crawl as long as I have a heads up at least 2 weeks in advance (the wifes rule... not mine) Saturdays just got freed up since she moved to a diffferent dept at work and I dont have kid duty every saturday. I scoped out some scaler style trails at kanawha state forest that looked very nice (waterproofing a must). Neither of my scalers are finished, but the CC01 should be done in the next week or so. My 2.2 scaler is a ways off from being finished. My comp truck will be running again in the next few hours once I replace a broken axle.

Tiny, can you give us some more info on your crawl spot? Is there room for a small gtg?

[T I N Y]

Yeah killswitch theres room..Theres a church next door so I got the parking covered. And I'd say "after it's done" (the course that is) I'd have room for 20 or so guys.And like 10 running at once.I did some more looking at the spot and I have a lot more room then I thought.I have like 70-80 foot one way and 80-100 foot the other I can use.Plus that dry creak bed runs up the whole side all the way to the river.the river is where the spot ends.I just need some help clearing it, and more ideas of what and where to put stuff is all.Hell me and one other guy could clear it all in less then a day easy I'd say.And You say you work at a hobby store??? If it's the hobby town in cross lanes or where ever you probably know me.I bought a white summit, the used artr ax10 that came with a bag of tires. a scx10 and a kit ax10 in like 2 weeks . 2 months ago.plus like 3 bodys 6 servos 4 motors and 2 sets of tires and wheels.2 hitec radio and receiver setups the 2 and 3 channels you had.this will be easier. I'm the 6 foot 5 tattooed guy with glasses and a long beard that always wheres a Yankee's hat...lol

I havent worked there in about 3 years, but im pretty sure ive seen you in there. Eric (the guy that works at hobbytown now) just got the ok from the reality company to put a rock pile behind the store for some crawling.

It's been going good. I have a little girl now and she has kept me quite busy, but now I am finding time to get back into rc, scalers especially.

No you never forced us to buy anything, but you sure made it easy. lol

I have never been to Kanawha state forest but I love running scalers (maybe someday I will have mine finished) and it will be water proof, but I have to be careful not to go in too deep. It would make me sad if my driver or his copilot drowned. Of course I also have the 3racing winch, which is by no means water proof.

[dirtmonkey912]

count me in. i would love to see an event similar to the crawl for kids even if it was just an informal gtg. it would be cool to get some crawling in with some guys who know what there doing so i wont be a permanent newb lol.

[only_in_a_yj]

Are you guys still doing this?
