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.

[QUOTE=Zabco;158209]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.

YES!! that's you! Thanks for all the pics! I just got on and found them it should have notified me when you posted them, but for some reason it didn't.

Glad you liked them. Also have some video but I need to do some major editing as they are very short clips and I have to get some new software.

I used to live in NH in the 90s in Bridgewater near Bristol. Beautiful state, I enjoyed living there.

Congrats to everyone for a good shoe. Spectators were happy, show promoters are happy, drivers are happy.

We had about 30 to 35 drivers across the two days. That's a good strong turnout.

Thanks to all and especially those that helped tear down and set up.

Thanks to those who travelled far to come share along with us.

I'm ready and axioms for the next show. January!

Thanks mustang, I like photography, and it bugs me when there's a huge event with tons of people having a great time, and only a couple pics of it ever show up, and maybe a video or two that have someone standing in the way. I still have a few more to upload. I'm not trying to slight anyone, i touched my lens at some point, so i have a lot of blurry pics of really cool things.

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!

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.

Tim-

Welcome aboard. You found a good forum for assistance. Also it looks like we'll be getting together again at the Boone County Fairgrounds in Lebanon, IN in mid to late January 2018. You can come and join us.
