Gulf Coast?

[spankrjs]

Unattended kids can be quite annoying there. Especially if they take out their badassery on your truck. I went yesterday and there was a birthday party. Some of the kids were playing "American Ninja Warrior" on the crawler course.

My SCX10 is still in my truck from yesterday so I guess ill have to stop by the moose lodge when I get off and check it out for a little while before the great ball of fire falls out of the sky. Ill probably arrive there around 5:15pm if anyone wants to join in.

Just curious if you made it out there yesterday??

I did. My wife was fussing at me to get home and grill some steaks so I didn't even break out my truck. I just walked around and checked out that 1:10th grand canyon. It looked pretty cool. We should try and schedule a time for a little gtg out there.

 

[spankrjs]

Yep, IIRC, the "Grand Canyon" wraps all the way around the property. It is really "soft" in some spots. There also is a smoother "dry lake bed" area, too.

The best thing: every time it rains, the washouts change"thumbsup"

saw the canyon earlier this week. was on a test drive and saw it. will love to try it out. now only if my coworker will remember the welder i will be set.

 

[Hulldiver]

Well they are supposed to have that comp at the yard tomorrow but if the weather tomorrow is anything like what today was I'm not leaving the house. We can set up our own "comp" at "moose canyon" some other time. I may even bring the mrc.

 

[Hulldiver]

Anybody up for a canyon run today around noon? Weather is probably gonna suck tomorrow.

 

[rcman1164]

sorry had to work today. it went to 3. i have next weekend off. and also don't work sundays. if you want to do it at lunch i can do that. the only problem for you hulldiver is that the bridge is closed.

 

[Hulldiver]

Yeah, i dont get much of a lunch break most of the time. I usually bring my lunch and eat and work at the same time. Im always off sundays, it is supposed to rain tomorrow though. Nobody responded this morning so i started painting. Since my brain doesnt quite function correctly sometimes. i decided to use krylon to paint my lexan body instead of spending a little extra money and it was chipping off pretty bad. I couldnt get it all off so... whats a man to do? Tape off all the decals and paint the outside. Its coming along okay so far. I just have to wait sooo long for the first color to dry so i can tape it back up and do the next color.

If anyone is ever in the Gulfport area I have quite a few spots to crawl... rocks, dirt, mud, sand, hills, clay, water, spillways and crushed asphault . We usually go atleast once or twice a week and early Sat or Sun mornings

 

[Hulldiver]

How early? I'm not big on mud or water but rocks and trails is all good.

Just noticed my avatar is my truck sitting in water... But it's clean shallow water on rocks.

 

[TeamAxial]

We are going this afternoon if you wana go. Probably leave the house around 6. On the weekends we usually go around 7 or 8

 

[TeamAxial]

We dont ever play in the mud or water lol I was just saying what all we have out there in case anyone was interested in that. Too much stuff for me to tear up

 

[Hulldiver]

Where at? I'll go sat if I can finish painting my truck by then. Depends on the weather between now and then.

 

[TeamAxial]

Its in Gulfport across from Kmart on 49. Im not sure if I will be able to go Sat morning either lol depends on if they warranty the rear diff on my 4wheeler! MUDFEST is Sat at Muddy Joes!

 

[Hulldiver]

You know Eric with the wraith? He was telling me about a spot over there by the spillway.

 

[TeamAxial]

Yep thats one of my buddies! He knows where to go out there at the spillway. Theres spots out there to do EVERYTHING lol you just need a truck to get back there

 

[Hulldiver]

Well if hes got the know, i got the truck. Ill get with him and see about maybe goin sunday. The weather for sat and sun looks okay. Its gonna be cloudy with 10% chance of rain. Hopefully saturday morning i can finish painting my truck and it will be cured enough to go sunday.

 

[rcman1164]
