Neil, the 2 maps are the same, the comp spot! Unless my browser isn't refreshing.
Also, I'm 50/50 at the moment. I have to "find out" what all I need to do tomorrow.
I'll start charging lipo's now... just in case. "thumbsup"

EDIT:I found it on the map. I don't think I can make it. It'd take me a while to get out there... I'm guessing 2:30ish.
There's no good way to go. I'd take 94 to Lake Cook (or Dundee) to NW Highway...

Yeah, from Evanston,
probably Lake Cook to Rand Rd to 22 to 14 to 31 and that would put you in Crystal lake.
 
Yeah, Cool. I gotta wake up and figure out how to get there still. I might have Buster with me. Is the spot far from the cars? I'll call you if I got any problems. I'll pm Trey my number just incase..
 
Nope, we can run right out of the back of our cars.

if i wasnt working today i would be there... we very much need to plan a lil weekend camping trip this summer at an off road park or nat park.

i should be able to make it sunday. "thumbsup"

Re: 3.8"

Anyone have ProLine "Traxxas" 3.8" BadLands?
They are 5.85" H x 2.72" W
that might work better... only a half inch taller though.

You are addicted to these big wheels. :)

You know I'm only running 3.2" Badlands on the RC8Te, right? ;) And thats with 6S on an 1800kv 8th scale motor!

Well, the Taco is down and out, Shattared Front Axle tube at the CHub. Thats with Beef Toobs.

But the Wraith just threw a MIP os it will be ready and maybe the TT for tomorrow.

whadItoeyouman! Don't break the rig before the comp... with out your DNF & DNS, I'm going to have to actually make it all the way through myself :mrgreen:

So, any reports on the new spot?
Saturdays are always hard for me to get away but I'd go out the on a Sunday.

You have the worst luck.

I have made some cool changes this morning.
 
Hard to believe, but no Pics, had my GoPro mounted but somehow I turned t off at the beginning of the trail and turned it on while I was carrying it back to the car.

We went a ways in, there is a LOT of cleanup that needs to happen but some nice hill climb sections, it is about twice as deep as the creek bed at Roselle maybe a little more. Lots of logs down and lots of damn cockleburs, but we could for sure make something of it.
 
My trucks managed to stay together so, I'm ready for tomorrow.

Trey's ESC got fireballed when we tried to plug in a 3s pack. Turns out he soldered his deans on untraditionally and the positive/negative were switched so, when we tried my battery on his truck it went poof. He said hes going to get it sorted tonight and run a different esc for tomorrow.
 
Tomorrow, I'm running Buxom Melons and bringing the Rock Rider to bash.
I was going to bring Hera so you guys can see it.
Anyone at all interested in seeing the Venom Safari I won? I can bring it if so...
 
all... I'm gonna need a van :shock:
Jason would need a semi truck :ror:

Does anyone have extra balloons? I forgot to pick some up today... I'll hit up a gas station for some condoms if not...

EDIT: Susan just asked "Should I be worried, you're going out in the woods with a bunch of guys but have to buy condoms first?" :shock:... :lmao:
