Ah! THat sucks I thought it was there too. But luckly I ran into a guy "fastfred" and he led me to it. I'm suprised that so many people showed up. It was great to met everyone.

I posted this in the other thread as well, but here are a few more comments.

Had a great time guys, thanks for the energy you put into it. Felt bad that I broke, but that's what you get for taking an unproven rig out. I did learn alot and had fun, so it was well worth the drive (and the hike - phew, next time I'm going to hire a sherpa.)

How often do you guys think we can put this together? Quarterly / Every other month? It'd be cool to do one in the sierras or there's even a place here (Modesto) that looks good. Its all broken concrete...

Also, give me your feedback on the idea of putting together a Norcal RC Crawlers website. It wouldn't be to compete with the other forums, but more of a place to post our events/pictures/movies/etc. If you guys like the idea, and can contribute, I'll make it happen.

Well I'm glad I went I've got some pics. I'll just add a link so everyone can check them out. Instead of adding 25 pics to the board.

Here's a few samples

Here's 40 or so pics.

If anyone wants highres versions, please let me know, I'll be glad to email them to you.

Note that these are right out of the camera without any adjustments. A few are a bit flat, but can be adjusted pretty easily, just LMK.

It was a great day. I appreciate everyones help. Skyjacker did a great job. My little Half Pint didn't fair to well but it was a great learning experience. Hope to do this more often.

Thanks to Skyjacker for keeping score and laying out the course. I felt bad because he didn't get to drive the course

I had a great time. I did much better than I expected. I think once I get 4ws and some soft tires I will do pretty good.

EVERYBODY had an awesome trucks today. I got some good ideas from you guys...

This is an MPEG-4, so you'll need Quicktime (Free from Apple for Mac and PC)

It is approximately 18 MB, and 6+ minutes long.
