Please post a list of dates that you can make it to a comp. I would really like to get all of us together at one place at the same time atleast once this year After August 15th I am good for every weekend thru October. Once we have a date set we need to stick to it and show up for a good time.

A few people went out to the gorge. Nat, Matt and Harley. I showed up to snap a few pics real quick but didn't take a truck. The next one on the schedule is for Sept. 8th and is a GTG at Nelson's ledges. I should be able to go! I'll definitely have a 1.9, nylint super and 2.2 ready to go. Possibly two 2.2s |

Would anyone be interested in changing the upcoming GTG to a comp? Seems like we should have a good turn out this time and I want to run over some tennis balls and watch Stu scratch his head while adding up my points..... |

If it gets changed I say we make a new thread. Get a list of people showing. Start a register for the comp. Who and what vehicles are running. Also get these rules narrowed down. Last comp went decent for being the first and thrown together but if we get a good showing this time we are gonna have to be more organized so it doesn't take 10 hours to run 10 trucks

what are the chances of this being changed to the Gorge? I might be able to make it there. Don't switch it just for me, though. |

I personally wouldn't mind where it is but I think the majority wants it to be at Nelson's Ledges to change it up. Been in Akron the last few times. |

and the gorge didnt present the best offering for a scale trial... or maybe that was the fault of the person who set the gates up with an extreme crawler |

Oh yeh, My dad will kick your Dad's ass! Kidding and poking aside. That was the first time we ever set anything up. Heck I didn't have a 1.9 to run. This time around there will be a lot more trucks and there will be no pre-running the course. Gates will be set down and every will only get one shot. That's the shot that will be scored. Person who scores the best on the first section gets to go first on the second. I personally think the 1.9 class should run the buddy system. Random 2 person teams will be assigned before it starts. (try to pair lexan 1.9 with a hard body 1.9) The first truck runs and is scored while the second follows. The truck being scored can be helped up the course by the following truck (1 point for towing, winch etc...) I think that would be cool. |

Here is my thought on what the buddy system teams will be. Two hats/buckets or whatever. One bucket will be lexan body rigs and the other bucket will be hardbody. One picked from each bucket will be a team. Matt, obviously you can't be on your own team unless you want someone else driving your recovery vehicle while you get scored. I just don't want one team to be two lexan bodies 1.9 comp style trucks while another team is two nicely scaled hard body trucks. I know they'll get bonus points for scale stuff but It's nice to see people get through gates too. |

I say the 1.9 should just be run as a follow the leader event, split between hard and lexan bodies. I have one of each I will be entering. |
