Busters
Rock Park Meet 4-22-05
This
was a crawling get together. Nothing more than me (jakhammer)
and Brian (Buster)
getting our crawlers out for the
very first time. You can find info about the trucks
below.
The
terrain used for crawling was something Buster had set
up for 1:1 trucks
and jeeps to play on durring his
annual mud fest. We used it today (and will use
it
again) for our R/C crawlers. The cement chunks and rocks
offer varied types
of traction. There are some slick
flat slabs to busted up rough pieces. Its
difficult
to find a line with all the big holes to fall into.
Its a very challenging
course to pilot for a small
truck like mine and serves a good challenge to a long
wheel
base gecko clod like Busters. Pictures
and videos below the table.
