Well Photos will come soon... We went to Pilot Mtn, but not sure where they do the RC Crawling at... anyone know, chime in please!! :)
We ended up playing around a bit, bent my servo arm launching it off a rock (for no reason at all), stripped a spur gear (DDS wanted to see how smooth he could make it) and dropped a drive shaft in the front.
It was a good day!!!

How did the Panther's do up against the hammers?

Having played with both... I am up in the air...
I like the height the Panthers have, but like the compound/foam combo of the Hammers.
I do need a little more wheel spin with the Hammers, but found a couple spots where the height of the Panthers kicked in and help keep the skid off the ground!
Both are a very very nice tire on rock in our area of the state!!

Are the hammers M2 or M3?

m3s but not as soft as the red panthers.

i think im going to swap out the stock memory foams and try the losi stockers to see if it may give the tires less wrap in some of that vid

Its a bit tight...but no tighter than HRL... Its nicely shaded area. maybe we can get a few more folks to join us up there to see how many people can hang out...
I like the area... its nice!
Now if i could only find out where it is they do stuff at Pilot Mtn.. :)

Its a nice drive for most... but its worth it I think... and there are more things down other trails, and ... If I can figure out the Pilot Mtn part... well we would have a bunch of places to crawl...
We could hold an All Day event crawling all the places for sure!!
