I got a bunch of gate markers from Axial to set up a ten gate course. Best of all I found an APP that scores rock crawler competition. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rc-comp-scorer-lite/id1543125357 This simplifies my scoring

Preaching to the choir here! In my spare time I run a motorcycle with a 100% nitrous power increase pushing the motor to 14000 rpm right between my legs.

For the record I did take three takes to get that video without flipping over. But the flips were on easy stuff. Also I run this corse with everything I got almost every day.

Trying different camera angle. This is a G Speed frame SCX10ii based rig. It is the only rig I have that can complete all the climbs. Seventeen climbs total. This is just six of the hard ones. Wait for it!

I am really lucky. The back yard is great but just practice. This is the big rocks nearby.

Finished my Creep build. This has a GSpeed frame and castle power system.

I finally was able to put together a video. It was four short videos. The problem I have been having is when I try to edit four videos together it does three of them then the forth video has a problem. I can’t figure out why, and I can’t figure out how to remove a part of a video in the center...

Ok Back at it after a big weekend crawling at my local spillway. I think I have a world beater set up. Go to the gorge and find out I need more work. Basically I need to lower my CG more. Better foams and lighter shock oil. Then I will try again. Back to the subject at hand. I think I will...

I tried to make a video of the run yesterday. It did not work out at all. I want a consistent format so I can show each vehicle and test and make them all the same. Plan C or maybe its D I’ll put the camera on a tripod. 1 show the vehicle on the corner weight scale and describe the...

This is a test run for my go pro and the new track start. It’s been raining so everything is wet. The truck is my UMG 10. I don’t want to beat this thing up. It is my first real rig and now they are out of production. I still love to run it. I’ll do a video of it and a full corse run when the...

I have the corse set up for now. I’m going to see if this all works and have some fun. That’s what it’s all about. What I’m going to do is shoot a video and feature each one of my rigs and show the set up. Kinda quick rundown of what it is and what mods are don’t to it. Then run it over the...

We have free rocks in Iowa too. Let’s just say it cost $100.00 to get 2000 pounds of clean smooth river jacks delivered into my driveway . I had to purchase a ton of granite trap rock for the patio because the stuff I put down a couple years ago has settled and is not moving water away from the...

I spent the weekend playing with rocks. I made the new pile of rocks as smooth as possible. My thinking is it is an obstacle that will take time to cover. I can always make it harder. But I want to establish a base line. The whole purpose of my corse is to test and tune the rigs in a controlled...

Well this is what 100 bucks worth of rock gets me. I now have an infinitely adjustable obstacle corse. This is not the corse yet. This is a pile of rocks. I’ll spend the next week or so just playing with it all.

This is a run on corse. I’m sorta trying to explain what I’m doing wrong and what is expected. I got this Go Pro for Xmas and am still trying to figure it out. Please forgive the video quality. I have to figure out videos. But I had to video this because tomorrow it will be different. This...

The rocks and gravel have arrived. Tonight I will do some prep work with a weed eater and Preen to keep the weeds down. Then tomorrow I will begin to modify my crawling corse. currently I have a low bridge called the parallel bridge and the high suspension bridge of doom. Then the rock...

I’m from Baltimore and now I’m in Iowa. To me August is a time of hazy hot and humid. But in Iowa it like seventy to eighty deg and pretty nice outside.

I guess with winter approaching the fires will subside. Cold wet weather and the amount of area burned already. I feel for the people and animals caught up in it. Here in Iowa it seems pretty calm at the moment, but Iowa weather is all about severe change. Crazy wind and temp. One day 40f the...

I’m trying to figure out how to make it work with snow. Nice to have a winter wonder land project. Maybe trails with a snow blower and solar light package.

Price went up. But I guess that’s with everything...
