thanks man, you da bomb! "thumbsup"

 

[Mega Fattie]

sweet!

nothing wrong with a dry trail, not every outing has to be muddy.

i haven't been motivated to mount the winch on my C2 lately, maybe tomorrow ill do it, and paint my wheel hubs.

 

[sally1800]

I was super happy with the way the trail looks. I hope you all enjoy.


I can't wait to take some action shots!!!!

So what exactley do we do in a trail class event? Just follow a trail of gates?

Yes

But in the TTC we do count reverses, winching. Class three rear steer or dig.

There is some skill type locations, steep climbs, long side hills, Drop off.'s, Oh ya long cross logs to get a cross the river bed. :twisted:

Aww hell.. I want to do this! I need my R/C fix!

F**k rain it the butt!

 

[johnnyh66]

ohhh no you didn't!

it'll beeeee fine, we'll just bring our ballons (or prophylactics)... and boots and rain coats and plenty of plastic bags to keep the tx's dry, you'll see. No problems man "thumbsup"

Well, I'm bringing a rebuilt rig. The only thing that didn't work out was the electronics. The motor/esc wires I had on hand were pretty short so I had to dith my bec... I'll look into it again tomorrow.

Does the br-xl's internal bec only go to 6v?

 

[johnnyh66]

[Die-Laughing]

Woo!

...it better not rain! Let us northern folk know if its raining down by you guys tomorrow morning. Ill check this thread in the morning to see if its still goin down.

 

[WarTrader]

Looking at the weather... Looks decent least for a little while. Rain/Storms supposed to be rolling in as day progresses...... What to do what to do!!!! My stuff is all ready sitting by the door ..... DOH!!

 

[Mega Fattie]

Weather channel says rain this morning with thunderstorms this afternoon.

Its overcast up by me right now.

Keep me updated on the weather out near roselle. Im an hour north.

 

[thzero]

It is getting a tad darker here (Streamwood, not too far from roselle).

That being said, come on out. Rain never hurt nobody. This ain't NASCAR where they won't run in the rain.

 

[WarTrader]

I'm on my way bringing my wraith and my 1.9.....

 

[johnnyh66]

omw. leaving in 20 mins.

 

[Die-Laughing]

For real? Its raining pretty hard up here. Ehhhh..

It is NOT raining in Streamwood, so probably not in Roselle. Looking at the radar from Weather.com it looks like we just may get missed.
