I had a ton of fun but would have been much better if my twin hammers was running and if I didnt fry my steering servo in the wraith. Next time will make sure everything is running top notch. When is the next meet?

| Re: pewitts nest Its only 5 mins or so from devils lake. You could come down for the devils lake run and if anyone Wanted, take an hour or so trip to the nest.

| Re: pewitts nest Devils lake is the next planned one around here. I for one will not be able to get out until then due to my wife's surgery. She won't be able to take care of the kids for a few weeks.I'd probably get shot.

Heres the photo's I took. Too bad none of my sawbacks in them. Stupid leaf spring.... Oh well, got the wraith in! The water crossing that I soaked my shoes for. Was worth it on the other side. the slippery moss/rock hill climb was a challenge but fun as hell! My turd. 100% stock. running 2S 6500mah batteries. Haha, this is where the other Brian (santa1) took a nice little spill! This trail was super technical. Lots of elevation change, side hills, and roots. And PLENTY of loose moss, and fluffy loam. Traction was an issue for everyone! This nice little crack wanted to eat Bronco's Wraith! Bronco took a nice leap of faith, and BARELY saved his truck, and himself for that matter. He almost went down too. Hope the dirty underwear was worth it! Super gettin' a little sidehill off canter himself! This picture really shows how steep the entire area was! The entire group, minus my sawback and a few of the other "backup" rigs! This hill was straight wheel speed. Constant throttle to climb this! All in all, the majority of us spent 7+ hours there, that's along time in one "small" area. I definitely say we go back sometime! |

Looks like a lot of fun. 7 hours, wow! That is a full day. It should help me get my piles of parts into something I can actually use. I sure will try to make it next time.

Hey my name is Andrew and I heard about your crawling club from Blain at RC performance. I am very interested in meeting up with you guys and going for some crawls. Please keep me posted on your next event so I can tag along. By the pics it looks like you guys are running some pretty scale rigs, and I think my crawlers will fit right in. Thanks
