found best scale place ever 56k beware

[alpinehyperlite]

Went with some of the local crew to a new scale and crawl area. Not many rocks, but amazing natural formations. Steep vertical climbs, deep ditches with water, amazing for 1.9 scaling and 2.2 crawling. More to be added later.

There's water, there's dirt, there's mud....are you INSANE!!!

I can't believe the three of you drove to that site in separate trucks......

That's a REALLY great pic!

Ditto on what Rolex said,that pic is cool. Looks like a fun place to play

Nice pics, alpine!!!

 

[ThunderTiger]

REAL nice pics alpine, a couple of them pictures could be mistaken to be full size rigs!!!

Yea, the WK kinda threw off the scale appearance, but we had fun. We really need to make some scale tow straps, and tow hooks.

Yep, if you didn't know any better that's true. Looks like fun.

Looks like a fun time and a sweet place for some scaler action for sure, X3 on that pic of the 3 of you going up the hill together.....

This is one of the best places I've ever scaled at. Its got nice trail/mud runs on the way up to it, then it just opens up to the crawler scale area. Its like 25 min from my house. can't wait to go back.

This photograph, for me, sais it all, It shouts full scale, but for the little leaves in the forground of the pic.

What a B E A U T I FU L photograph, great light, great composition but what a pity there is a body shadow to reveal it is a miniature rig

Alpine, if you get the chance to repeat this photograph without the shadow PLEASE, repeat the photo.

How do those vehicles do compared to each other? That's a pretty diverse group! Does one stand out from the others as far as climbing and off camber stuff?

 

[alpinehyperlite]

the axial crawler got through better than anything else...... the scx (f350) and the tamiya toyota were really good in the scale, and the other rig was just a w/k that just bashed out everywhere

 

[Metalhead Matt]

Those Tamiya CC-01 rigs are pretty tempting at around $200. Awesome pics and place!
