Nice crawlers. Id say the popularity of crawlers has died tremendously over the last few years. 5 years ago, every body was trying to produce comp crawler products, now there isnt any comp crawlers being produced. Scalers took over though and are still really popular. I miss having crawlers big time, just was spending way too much money on them. Id take your xr10 if you decide to give it away haha.
 
^^Yep, Lloyd nailed it. People can relate to scalers because it looks like their 1:1, comp rigs on the other hand resemble nothing in the 1:1 world. And yes, scalers are easy to sink a metric shite ton of money into.

Its pretty much died up here also . There was a local crawler club that had some strange rules . If you ran a moa rig you took a huge penalty . So much so you could never win . Oh well I guess Ill just hold onto all my crawlers for another 5 years lol . Hell I'm still rocking a tlt rig .
 
There is a track local to me in Maine that has a really cool indoor rock crawl 'track'. They always seem to have a full room there with ppl running their rigs in competition with each other. I don't have a crawler, mainly because I am into nitro (which is Def dead in my area, but bashing is fine with me as of now). I still go to the track to check out what is winning etc. I will likely be purchasing an electric 4x4 soon. I'd like to get back into racing. I miss the fun and it gives me something to do during the cold winters where running nitro just doesn't work out! Anyway, I don't think it's dead and if you're really into it, and know other ppl local who are into it too, you might be able to convince a local track to set up a for it and have some fun!

Btw, there were guys in there running their scalers too.
 
Rock Climbing is cool and all but I like fast better. Nice builds MR4
 
anyone else?
