South San Fran, Wed Night crawls

[Heckler]

No crawling for me today guys going to ride the dirt bike today.

I'm not gonna make it either, got a family party today

 

[JeepinDoug]

I thought it was gonna be swampy out at Gtek today so planned on staying home out of the rain.
By 1 oclock it still didn't rain and the streets were dry so I grabbed the shafty for a little time killing.

Note, I've been working the shafty all week. Change the wheels to RCBros 3 pc stars, the weight system to Krazed Builds and pine car weights, a new set of Purp's super narrow skinny VooDoos and finally got some over drive gears back in the front.
The track width is a half in wider all around and may narrow the rear a bit later.
Drove for 10 minutes on rocks I know and everything seemed well.
I don't know why I drove towards Silicone Peak, no one has ever made it up the front side of this rock, everyone has tried. I've only seen a few get all four tires on the face of the rock on to slip off the side or flip over.
I popped right on to it with all four and slipped off my first try today, but it felt great so I grabbed the GoPro just in case and here's what I got.

Once these tires get some silt in them they wont be able to do this anymore, I'm sure.

Thats sweet! I've gotten all 4 wheels on it a few times but it didn't last long. Your setup seems perfect there is so little hop it keeps traction.

Nice, guess the silicone finally washed away. That was Manny's right? Haha
