Well, Wes and I plan on taking going out to Skookumchuck on Sunday morning. I still need to get a new ESC that will play well with 3s and an 11 turn puller, to get my rig running at full potential. :booo:

What time you planning on heading out there on Sunday Phil?

PHILLBILLY1 · Sep 3, 2011

We should be arriving there around 8:30am. We have a going away party for our brother tomorrow as well, so we made it for earlier, that way we could put more time in over there.:awesomework:

hlb3 · Sep 3, 2011

How long do you think you will be out there? Don't think I'll be able to get out there that early.

PHILLBILLY1 · Sep 3, 2011

Not sure......kinda see how it plays out I guess. Probably a couple hours at least.

hlb3 · Sep 4, 2011

Looks like my morning is shot, I think I'll probably head out in the afternoon to fart around.

PHILLBILLY1 · Sep 4, 2011

Well, we were there till a little after 12:00! Had a nice long morning of wheelin.:awesomework: Have some good pictures and a few videos that I will be uploading later. That place is pretty fun:redneck: Made a few new courses, and almost lost my cawler into a huge hole full of sticker bushes.

Nice! Wish I could have made it out, it was about 12:30 before I was done getting my daughter fed, bathed, and ready to go. Never made it out there, ended up killing the day in the shop working on the Cruiser.

IT IS!!!:haha: I don't know how many times he ran over my radio, but it was more than 5:haha:

Once I find new shocks and a new speed control, I will go out there again. It got very annoying having to refill and put the shocks back together any time I rolled it..... There are some pretty cool spots to crawl right there:awesomework: We were having a blast cutting in new lines by the ditch. :redneck:

GOT NEW SHOCKS!!!!! These things are badass!!

My shock problems have been solved

It now rides on a set of scale FOX racing air shocks. I had to make new shock mounts for the rear. you'll see in a sec...

Perfect amount of flex

Here is what I was saying about new shock mounts. Now they are incorperated into the rear truss. Works awesome!

Now, with the new shocks, I did change the way my suspension works.....Hopefully it wont affect it negatively. I farted around the yard with it today, and didn't notice any misbehavior.

I found your lil short trail to the rockface pal. did it in the rain with a scaler pickup truck. I liked it. I need to hit the skook with a rake there are a couple new rockfaces Id like to clear and crawl.

I know what you mean. Lots of prospective spots to wheel, but they are all overgrown. I wanna go back out there and crawl with some of you guys that frequent that spot. I got my shocks on, still waiting on funding for an ESC, but I will wheel it anyhow:redneck::beer:

Actually, I have a pair being shipped to me right now.:awesomework:

Did some horse trading on RCC and scored some high steer knuckles and another set of aluminum shocks

Thanks though!
