It was another great show, and i'm glad i got to be a part of it! Thank you all for the work it takes to make this kind of thing happen. You guys rock. You took losing the Indy toy truck show, and got us a bigger, cheaper place that loves having us.

When I started coming to these events, I used to take all kinds of pictures and post them in an effort to get the coverage out there. This particular show I took set up pictures and of those who were some of the first there. By the time I got around to posting them someone else posted better one's of the same thing, which is great since I'm no photographer . Then Saturday rolled around and I was into driving and checking out all the great new trucks and never took a picture, felt bad but that's how it goes, we need an official photographer!

Thats funny I just told a friend that I need to bring him with to take photos because I have to much fun driving.

That would probably be me. (Not really all that old, just rode hard and hung up wet!) Anyhow, took some time to process photos so they would be a reasonable size for up/downloading. Also had to figure out how to use a photo hosting site as I've never used one before.

Some pictures of Friday's action:

Wishing I would have found this section of the forums earlier, beautiful trucks gentleman!! I'm from Valparaiso and am hoping to meet new people locally for advice and knowledge for these trucks as I'm beginning my first build(grand hauler) I have been out of the r/c hobby for years and am now getting back into it with 1/14 scale trucks. If anyone local would be willing to answer the hundreds of questions I have I would be greatly appreciative.
Thanks, Tim

Tim, you may also wish to start a build thread here, & you can ask questions there. Being fairly new myself, I can tell ya, the folks here are more then willing to help as much as they can to resolve issues you have with building your projects.

I love the idea for the drive over grizzly that feeds the conveyor belt!

The CAT in the other pic, It doesn't look like a Bruder conversion. What kind/type is it? I like the looks of it! Is it a pre-built kit or other model that's been converted?

The Larger Cat dozer is the RC4WD dozer. It is prebuilt with radio. Just add hyd. oil and battery.

Thank-you for the information. Unfortunately, the pricetag on one of htem things is a bit outside my budget. It's a mean looking machine. Perhaps, next year, I'll be able to acquire one of them. In the mean time, I've got Bruder's to keep me accupied.

Thanks, I appreciate the compliment. This was my first show where I was also able to drive and I really enjoyed myself. However I probably will not be able to make the next show if it is in January as that is when the Cabin Fever show is going on over the the other Lebanon (PA). As I also do miniature machining I've been going to that show for several years now. Always liked to watch the RC truckers at that show and maybe this year I can play on their big pile of dirt also.

I've taken a few pictures, I just started. 5 inch frame stretch. Just primed my frame . Do I post pictures here, or in another part of this forum?
