viper's creeper build

He still has a external spring on his shock... Plus however many of us are running internal anti roll springs in are droop rear an internal springs for the front..
 
Don't blame you Sam, it's gonna top out at about 111* to 112* :shock: here today, and I know from living in Arkansas for 15 years, your 103* feels hotter than our 112*, that frickin' humidity is a killer :x.


well i decided that i am going to skip this comp , it is going to be between 103-105 out this weekend and i don't do well in the heat . but i will try to get out on my backyard course and test a little

that's for sure bob , right now we are looking at at least a week straight of this heat :flipoff: . to those who don't know me very well i have benn hospitalized three times now for heat exhaustion and dehydration ( hooked up to i.v. fluids ) so when i say i don't do well in the heat i really mean i don't do well in the heat .
 
well our next comp is this saturday at watts mill creek ( i like this area most of the time ) so we will see how she does since i made the changes to the links and shocks . "thumbsup"and of course it is going to be 100+ on saturday again ( guess i will brave the heat for this one )
 
lots of water and gatorade bud. also if u have to bring a couple of fans with you to keep ya cool. it was 96* here in upstate NY with almost 70% hermidity and i think just about every person at the track yesterday had some kind of fan with them and atleast 3 small lunch coolers with them.

yeah the fan would be great but there isn't anyplace to plug it in , i am going to spend most of my time in the shade and i will be drinking lots of water and gatorade as well . "thumbsup"

so i guess the mods i did worked out , i came in third at the comp today ( in a brand new location ) . i didn't get any action shots of the rig ( maybe next time ) , i tried out the new tires before the comp and they didn't hook up that well in stock form ( think i will trim them a little and maybe some foam changes )

Grats on the 3rd place finish! Glad to hear its working out well for you!
 
Great looking crawl spot! Congrats on the podium finish.
I'm with you Dalton, wish we had some more around me an we are 3-4 hours away from eachother..
 
Looks like an awsome scaler place to crawl as well! Though my scaler will go up almost anything a sporty will.
