    Im an OIT student and got into scaling sometime last year and its been amazingly addictive. Ive been around RCs of almost every kind for a while now. Started out with a Duratrax Evader back when ESCs were just coming to RTRs. Since then Ive had a Mini Quake, a Tamiya F150, and a 2WD Slash. I now have the SCX10, an E-Revo and a Tamiya DF03ra rally car.

    Hit me up if anyone is in K Falls and wants to crawl.

    My scaler was an Axial SCX10 Dingo that now has some RC4WD electronics, a hitech servo and a hacked GT3B. Anyways, heres a couple pics.

    Good eye Chase.  He should put a RC in the RC in the back of the RC.  From there I think it's turtles all the way down...

    Im in grants pass. Not to far from u. Might come up ther this summer for some races. But being a waiter I work all weekends and usually close. So im not off till 10 or 11. Or 2am when im working at the bar. So weekdays usually is best for me unless I meet in the day.
    I havent been in k falls since high school basketball. ( class of 04. Im not "that" old. (Yet))..so I would need a travel buddy that knew how to get their. . Where was the location u shot that vid?

    Oh just got a scale idea for you. You know those rubber chickens? Well maybe they have rubber deer. You could lay a buck in the bed and have his dead head flop up and down while driving around. Boom deer hurst . Lol  :eek:

    Your only a couple years older then me. Hope you dont feel as old as I do......

    The video was taken up on Haglestein. I hear there is a good spot under HWY97 next to the road but Ivent checked it out or meat the guy one of my buddys sees crawling there.

    I have to see what happens with classes and work this summer to see when would be free. As for the next term, Friday afternoons is basically all I got other then weekends. 4 labs next term, its gonna suck.

    Hope to see ya at some races too, maybe the guys around here will let my E-Revo or rally car play on the track.

    Kinda a bit of a necro post here but an update to my rig. Played with the front suspension. Modded the Y link and got some more flex as some of the resistance was removed from the panhard setup.
