We have the SAME landscape! As soin a you wrap it up there, you can start on my 1/10 scale dirt track!

I've already got a pretty small grass area and a VERY large area of trees/shrubs and a ton of just pine straw...so the ideas are flowing, and the wife is scared lol

You could always let your wife look at this thread by @majin. But pack your things up first, just in case

I’ve browsed the Injora website already. I happen to have a hobbytown 10 minutes from my house so went in there today to get some wheel weights and came out with all of the other stuff lol

Hobby shop is a TRAP!!!

A little more work this afternoon. I got some coverage on the top and side walls of the dark soul's plateau. I also extended the rockslide and put down some more sand/topsoil around the edges of the structure. I could sit out there and piddle around all day if I didn't have a stupid job and family to feed. lol

That's what it's for, to unwind after dealing with work and feeding the family. I wish I had a yard to make a course in.

This corner of our backyard has been dirt and pine straw for years. We just had a big pine taken down and it really opened things up. I had just gotten my first couple of RC car's and it got my wheels turning...and here we are...

 

[PewPewChris]

All walls are complete on the dark souls plateau. There is still more shaping and painting, but it's getting close and my trx4m has found multiple ways to crawl it. As I continue to upgrade the truck, it will find more.

Morning all...itching to go swipe another 1/18th crawler...or possibly a 1/10th road warrior...yes, I have a problem.

I want to start exploring other brand options than just Traxxas...where should the next leap take me?
