Axial “Bakers Dozen” RECON G6
presented by
Tekin Racing


The G Crew is cooking up an Axial RECON G6 scale adventure event in Alberta Canada. The stages will sizzle with excitement as drivers put together a recipe for adventure. Crawler Teds Garage will have an addition, the Crawler Teds Cafe, but this cafe will have driver challenges for appetizers, a main course of RECON G6 stage craziness, & a dessert of scale goodness.
Grab your aprons and an appetite for scale adventure & get your fix in the Axial Bakers Dozen RECON G6 presented by Tekin Racing.

A team can be 3 friends, 3 club members, or 3 hobby shop employees, but remember, its a team effort. All 3 drivers must start together, stay together, & finish together. All repairs must be made on stage. If a truck cannot be repaired, a team must tow that vehicle thru the rest of the stage or suffer the fate of a DNF. Grab your buddies and get ready to share a unique G6 stage experience.

Second, The tires must fit in the stock fender wells of the body being used. For example, a rc Pajero stock wheelbase is 9.9 inches or 252mm & a rc D90 stock wheelbase is 11.10in or 282mm. Trimming the fender wells for travel must be kept scale and have fender flares, but the wheelbase cannot be altered. The following scale items are mandatory: 1. side mirrors &/or a driver side mirror & rear view mirror. 2. Windshield wipers. 3. A cooler. 4. A first aid kit. 5. Spare tire.

Endurance Class (5 driver minimum) - This class is a 6 hour scale adventure that will push drivers and their equipment to new levels. The FIX 12 Hour Endurance Event takes place once a year and is the proving grounds for the products that you use on your scale adventure rig. Endurance Driving is next level driving. If you wish to push your limits, test your skills, or just are looking for the next level of scale adventure, look no further than the new RECON G6 Endurance Class.

I had a great time and i plan to go again next year. I would upload some pics but it doesnt seem to want to let me right now.
 
I'm not sure the final number. I heard that there were 35 people. I thought closer to 30 though. Directions weren't the best so we had some get lost/ show up late. We do have a large rc community here in Alberta, but it seems like Recon G6 still wasn't very well known/understood here. Some of the comments I saw leading up to the event suggested this. Hopefully next year will be better advertised and have better directions.

That being said it was still an awesome event and I cant wait til next year

Our first year we only had 32 entries, it wasn't locally promoted by the host(average Joe). This year Parker came back and it was huge we had 117 entries. I know you guys have a huge following out there, that's why I was surprised when I saw Lyle's video and it didn't seem like a big turnout. I'm glad you guys had a blast, Parker is a riot to hang out with.
