| 1000 islands current water level
Since we all like this place so much, and because the water level is so inconsistent, I thought I'd start this thread so we know when we can crawl there I do get there every so often...I'll update next time I'm there Anyone else that stops by check the water level out & keep us updated... |

| 2.2 Pro-line Hammers on black 8 shooters, built up comp axles & trans I bought used on here, Dingo body I bought from T-buck, homeade links (8/32 & Jato rod ends, with alum sleeving), bought a SCX-10 chassis from hobbytown, prob XL5 & Axial 27t for now...nothing special- just trying to make it as bulletproof as I can. Alum shock towers are on the wish list.. Some cool scale accessories too... I need to build the driveshafts now- steel stampede outputs & pede shafts for now...I may switch to Maxx shafts If I beak too many pede shafts.

The Fox was runnin' pretty hard through the flats, I'm guessing that T.I. is prolly the same...weekly flash floods aren't helping the cause. The marble sized hail and hurricane winds were a nice change though .

Damn, that must have been wicked . The smaller stuff we got here was bad enough. More rain in the forecast, we might have to wait for T.I. to freeze over before we can crawl there . |
