Let's just say after today's comp I hope they -dont- post the results.

And I'm putting a non scale looking Porsche body and basher gearing in my rig for a week or two.
With all my extras, body pieces and full interior I still had less scale points than about everybody else.

That comp was definetely not what I expected. I had fun and all. But to me it seemed more like a hardcore crawler thing instead of a "scale" event.

I don't think anybody was expecting that haha. Scale should mean scale, not rip your rig apart just trying to get through the first gate.

Well I apologize you guys did not like the comp. Looking at the scores a lot of people finished courses and everyone I judged was smiling and having a good time! I have gone to competitions all over the US and those courses were actually very tame compared to competing at a national level.

Again I apologize you did not have fun.

Don't get it wrong man. Maybe a misunderstanding on my part. I was thinking more scale than anything. It was my first comp so maybe I was way off on my expectations. I had a blast. Just a different mindset I think.

I agree with mutant. I figured more of a trail run with some technical areas. Not a full blown comp. I had a good time just was not at all what I was expecting.

It wasnt a bad event its just the misleading when it says a "scale" comp so i though it was a trail run like how we all run in the springs the couse seemed poorley set up to me.

This was the first comp for several of us. I think we were expecting a "fun" (easier) get together when we showed up for a technical competition.
Basically I believe we had a misunderstanding, and understand what a comp is for future reference.

I think we were thrown off by the "scale" part. Was still an experience just didnt expect it to be as extreme as it was.

As was said by a few others it was my first comp for one but I quickly realized that it was way outa my league. Think ill just stick to trail runs in the springs from now on.... the only course I tried was nearly impossible even for the better sett up modifieds so yeh.:banghead:

sent from my 5th scale

 

[donnielovett]

It was definatly a challange thats for sure.
