Well... had a blast for the whole 10 mins I ran :)
I broke a servo horn and dropped the drive shaft 5 or 6 times before I just said forget it. Didn't really run too much since there where only 4 of us there (with a 5th person finding us a tad bit too late).
I didn't get any photos, and didn't even bring the camera.

Yeah... I am not a fan... I dont like it at all. I don't see a true need for it in 90% of the situations... plus just didn't work the way I expected it to.

I really like the idea behind dig but if it is that much of a PIA then I may have one for sell...if it ever gets here:(

I ordered with VF on March 16th, still no word!
90% of the time I don't see a need for it as well but when that 10% shows up, if you don't have it and they do, it's the diffrence between 1st and not!

We were on the list for the dig from VF but in light of the recent issues with them I got a refund and desided to fool around with making my own. Crawlerking made one that works fairly well. He and a fella name Manny worked on it all week. It still has a couple bugs but it should work fine once they get the kinks worked out. My trucks work really good without the digs but I see where it could help me from time to time.
coarse #1 was ruff.........i dont think anyone made it to the 2nd gate without pointing out............whats funny is i layed the course out with my rig and had no problem;)

Not long bout 2 days for the credit to show up at paypal. I did have topay the paypal fees but that was like 4 bucks i think. All I done was email them and tell them I had desided not to get it and seeing that I was so far down the list they didn't even sweet it.

Hey, I showed up late to the comp the other day, but I just wanted to say that it was great to meet you guys. I also had a blast at the dam after the comp. I burned through two battery packs. I think I left around 3:30. If you guys meet again up there, I'll try to make it.

Wish I could have made it. I'm trying to remodel my house so we can move in before the baby comes. I'm working 12-14 hours a day between work and the house. I ordered my dig from VF on March 4th. I waited patiently for almost 2 months and then sent them an email. I got a smart a$$ reply that said it went out priority mail on April 30th. I have yet to see it. Either he lied or it got lost. I have no use for a liar. Most likely the first and last purchase from VF.
