Scale Builders R/C Club Kinghauler
Well everyone ,since everytime we do an event or a show people are always asking us about our trucks and how they would like to drive them,then the question..do you mind if i give it a try .well the solution to that dilema is why not build a plain jane slow crawler motor tractor to allow the curious to try it .this was a great idea from one of our members (goose19) so here it is in all of its plain glory .....Our Club Truck

Re: Scale Builders R/C Club Kinghauler
as some of you may or may not know ,we have built a "club truck and trailer" for our r/c truck club .When we do events ,it gives the spectators a chance to drive one instead of our custom trucks.i went to my decal person who does the vinyl decals for me and got some custom made ones for the club truck.it is official now .Scale Builders R/C Of Ontario has a new division .this truck and trailer is also for members to use in case their custom truck and trailer is "in the shop" so i felt it necessary to put these decals on our club truck

Re: Scale Builders R/C Club Kinghauler
That's a good idea! Too bad I live in Oregon! I just wanna get my hands on one here soon and get a feel, also dimensions so I can start a trailer build or two. The local hobby shop here does this with rock crawlers and smaller race cars. He also has a Rock course and a race track with competitions. No one around here deals with semis or construction equipment. Its pretty rare here. We get a lot of older retired Californians here. Other than that everyone's a redneck that spends their money on other stuff. We need more oppertunitys like this here and I know people will love it. Almost everyone here is a logger or truck driver!

Great idea 1985. I was lucky enough to have a friend that is into the hobby. He let me run his truck at the Indy show. I was hooked after that!!
