Other day at Toys R Us i saw a jeep Rubicon remote control crawler. That one sucks. It LOOKS like it would do well, but it doesnt. Iunno, I got the Rubicon for xmas and wow it is incredible. It was 50 bucks and is 1:10 scale, locked f/r, kinda a "2 link" w/coil-over setup and has variable throttle. Found a 1:10 rubicon on the clearance aisle at Target last night for $40 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> Pretty fun so far, although my wife thinks I'm nuts, especially after seeing this thread open on the computer <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> Let's see what she says when I'm out in the garage tonight doing suspension mods <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Here's a cool article for you kids. I've been out of R/C since I sold my Nitro RS4 last year, but this looks awful tempting.
Back in the West!

Me and my boys took ours down to Barton Creek today...no water...like RC moab. Only the rock is white. Anyhow, the traction was great, I didn't want to leave. I did not pose these pics. I drove in and drove out on all... ![[Linked Image]](http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y198/TexJeff87/crawl1.jpg)
If Mad Max had a 4runner...
