Great crawling event!!

Hey if you didn't show up we had a great time crawling at Crawling Rock at Toms place. So many lines to pick and all are challenging. We set a course later in the day and I don't recall anyone completing it. It was a tough one with lots of different challenges to get by. So I plan on doing an event with Tom later in Sept, keep checking back for the date you won't want to miss is.

CRAWLER GATHERING AUGUST 23

Hey I have confirmed a date and time for our next crawl. Tom Spangler "Tom Cat" has built a course at his house and wants us to show up. So August 23 at 10am we will be crawling. This will just be for fun. I or we can set a course and score it or we can do whatever we want. I think it would also be fun to BBQ some burgers or hot dogs. I'm going to bring my gas grill so you will have a place to cook some food. Lets get another good group together and have some fun. Tom has spent a fair amount of time putting this together so it should be fun. Also you should see the paint work he can do and he also brought in some custom tube chassis. I'm sure he will have them there to look at and buy if you want. He will have directions for me later this week and I will also post them or you can call for them at the shop 222-5679. So I'll see you guys there.

New crawl spot!

Hey we have a new place to crawl. Tom Spangler of Redding has been building a crawler course. He would like to Invite us to come check it out. Its not finished yet but he has plenty of things for us to crawl on. He wants some input on the layout and ideas. So lets make it happen, He said this weekend would be fine for him, August 9th. Call me at the shop and l'll get you directions and time. Thinking we could bbq burgers and hot dogs. Also I guess there was a good group of guys this last Sunday at Oasis. Think we need to do a real comp out there very soon, maybe at the end of this month or first week in Sept. This would be the real deal, classes and all rules in effect. I also think the shop in Paradise is going to host a comp at the end of the month lets all go maybe we could car pool. Oh Tom is a master of the airbrush and paint. He can paint up your rigs body and make it "rock". We have sold some bodies that he has painted and they are really nice. Well lets make it happen and start crawling now.

Tuber!





Pretty much got thr Edge all set up. Going to change a few things but it crawls very well. I added Integy "H" type shock mounts in the rear and I think i'm going to go with an axle mounted split pack to get the cg lower and more forward.

crawlin, crawlin, crawlin! :-)

If anyone is interested we could start a monthly crawl. We could move the location every month. Maybe we did it on the 2nd Saturday of every month. Its just an idea. Trying to get something started where people can plan on having a place to go and have other people there. So if you are interested let us know. The crawl I had planned for Sat June 14, I didn't get any response back from on weather people would be showing up. So Im not planning on being out there. We could try and go Next Sat June 21 at the same spot on Oasis. Lets get something started
