Vasquez rock crawl

[Shodog]

Yesterday I went down to the Los Angeles area to a place called Vasquez park. Participation was good as there were 5 others who brought trucks. We were there mainly there to See Richard (Sleeppercivic) so he could take pictures for upcoming issues of R/C car. In addition to my Mounty and Hilux, I brought my Jeep, FAV and Rough Rider. Here are some shots of my FAV and Rough rider in action

Hey, your pics aren't working anymore! I just looked at them (nice!) and now they are gone! A moving RR is a rare sight. If I only had on to even LOOK at....

I'm going after that RR from a local guy (the one I bought my first car from... new built RR... let make a good deal on that one...) Maybe for a Sinterklaas present! lol

That CRV is Sleepercivics. It is a TXT chassis with a CRV body from the cross country series of truck. The CRV is longer than the Wrangler or pajero so it looks really good on that chassis. the wheels as something new. They have hub mounts that fit a TXT but are sized to fit T-maxx tires.

That picture of Hua' Bruisernaut was taken after it stopped rolling down the rock. It must have rolled 7-8 times

the FAV looks right at home in those pics, almost can't see it with the camoflague !!!!

Also I have a spare Brand New CR-V body and a Juggernaut chassis waiting for me in Canada, I think those 3 should meet !!!

****, that thing goes like a rocket! You gotta be more carefull out there, that car even looks too nice to run to me... You didn't even take of the machine-gun of it (just for safety) I hear that is a rare FAV part.

I gotta get me one of those, they became instantly one of my FAVorites. What a Wild One, you FAV Well, at least I got a differential gear for it, now for the rest of it...

I hope my HotShot will run just as well as your FAV, I'm still looking for some parts. Good thing I found someone with loads of spares. I cleaned up the parts I got and I want to start assemble soon.

I am trying to get some video as well, would be a great addition to my site as well... Maybe of the HotShot I am restoring now (but I'm a bit affraid it's going to get 'too nice' )
