My inlaws used to have a petfect yard for crawlers, and their pool was landscaped with big dirt mounds with boulders around it. Of course this was before I was into RC's. :doh: they had moved before I realized what an awesome playground that could have been. :(
Go back and drive there. Technically if your car goes but you stay it's not trespassing. 🫠

Well it's not particularly pretty but it's very challenging. Literally a couple of mm's margin of error but I made it! (once)

Best wear a seat belt. Trying to wait patiently to see what else you do.

I'm not all that pretty either and I've lasted millennia!!!
You're having more fun with your crawler on your track than I am having without mine!
I keep seeing all you guys enjoying your trucks on these "backyard" tracks and they look like a total blast! Nice job!!!
 
It looks like a fun obstacle for sure. Throw some sticks across it in a few spots. Might make it more interesting? But you're off to a great start!
Though I'd try with the bare branches first to see if it had the grip. No problems even on the stock hard tyres. My replacement wheels are now in the country!
Also couldn't resist painting the tailgate. It just looked wrong before

I get a lot of my obstacles from Facebook marketplace and Craigslist
I look for things free or junk or rock people want Hauled off score lots of cool stuff for just the gas to pick it up
An old door cut up can make lots of stuff
I love what your doing bro can't.wait to see next update!
Pallets are worth their weight in gold!
Free wood slats to pull off and rearrange or can just cut the pallets to size and make a challenging bridge obstacle with a suspension bridge in between with just pallets and rope

One thing I'm not short of is junk! You've reminded me I've got 3 pallets lying around somewhere. Liking the idea of a suspension bridge 🤔
