They had an RC Course set up which was sponsored by Axial Racing and staffed with North Texas Scale Crawlers and East Texas RC Crawlers guys. We all had a blast. The whole family drove our personal rigs as well as some of the ones that Axial had sent to the event. My 6x6 got loa...
Steve Studstill recaps his experiance at Stone Mountain GeorgiaPlaying on the biggest rock in Georgia with ScalerFab Team Driver Steve Studstill. Sundays event was held at Stone Mountain Georgia just above Atlanta. Both fields class 1 and class 2 came to seriously crawl the big rock! With a field of 20+ in class 1 we were in for a challenge. The points were tight, one gate took me out of first place and gave me third. Still second in points standing and two events to go, we got time to get the series win! Class 2 was filled with great drivers. 20 poin...
Team Driver Josh Krupenny Shares his New ScalerFab SR5 Comp Bumper!Following the rules but pushing the limits is what ScalerFab Team Driver Josh Krupenny is good at with his new ScalerFab SR5 Comp Bumper! Got my new Scalerfab SR5 Comp bumper and Rock Sliders in raw finish for the Rust Bucket and I must say it turned out perfect!! Actually how I wanted the bumper to be. This bumper says I follow the rules but I'm gonna cheat by using this awesome bumper with no issues on approaches on rocks or getting caught on anything while comping!! #pushingthelimits

Good ole family time by ScalerFab Team Driver Cristian FischerFamily crawling and Cajun Country Exploration, sharing the scale lifestyle. Jr and I went and explored the local parks and the water front down around my in-laws house and found some sweet spots to crawl while in Cajun country. We asked around and missed a local event but made friends and will be back soon. We traded some setup tips and shared where we get our parts and ScalerFab accessories.

To Comp, or Not to Comp, and Other DrivelA trip down memory lane with Team ScalerFab Father/Son Duo, Randy & Tristen Williams. In my search for ideas of subjects to bore my meager audience with, I often find myself drifting off in memories of the first realizations and discovery of RC crawling. The awe of actually seeing a 1/10th scale rock crawler and the scale details sometimes hidden around the rig. The amazement of researching all the aftermarket products and modifications, and the videos. I watched so many videos. The wa...

ScalerFab Team Driver Kerry Adams opens up to us and share old and new Father Son memories!Touching Father and Son memories created and captured between ScalerFab Team Driver and his son. Many years ago my dad bought me an rc plane. And after making the 3rd trip back into town and buying a 3rd plane that i crashed, he said maybe planes are not for me. So we saw something new from tamiya sitting there. A brand new grasshopper. Well, we took it home and built it that night. It is one of the best memories I have with my dad. And a week later we were replacing the motor. Years later m...
The Rise and Fall of a Legendary Course in Sunrise, FLA sad story of deterioration and stagnation of a once legendary course in this feature location post with Team ScalerFab Driver, Ant Petrone. I was at our local crawler course in Sunrise, FL a few weeks ago and was reminded that the RC world is no different than any other facet of life. The course was trashed, overgrown, and empty. A far cry from what it was a few years ago where it was normal to see 20-40 people out there on any given Saturday or Sunday. The RC community like any communit...
Test and Tune w/ ScalerFab Team Driver, Josh KrupennyWell today was a great day of test and tuning the truck worked great and as expected my ScalerFab comp series bumper and my stealth/hidden ScalerFab bomber sliders did its job today on the F350 platinum to protect my truck. I was finally able to test CBE RC Titan 300oz servo with my ScalerFab winch hook and pulled out a truck that couldn't make the climb and all I can say the winch pulled the truck with ease
ScalerFab Land Anchor In UseVeteran Team ScalerFab Driver, Mike Rowe, shows us that the ScalerFab Land Anchor isn't just for scale points, it actually works like the real deal! There are endless ways of using your winch to get you out of a situation. From wrapping around a tree or rock, to "doubling" your line pull using a snatch block. Each situation has a preferred method. Regardless, a land anchor will help in 99% of them, especially a ScalerFab Hybrid land anchor. But practice makes perfect. I try to p...
Monkey Face Day Crawl in Chico, California w/ Team ScalerFab Driver, Chris LealWe made our monthly trip down the hill to Chico California to crawl with the Butte County Scalers "For The Scale Of It" Crawl/Fun Run and it was a blast! We hiked the Upper Bidwell Park location Monkey Face, it was full of all kinds of obstacles and amazing lines next to a small water fall! The people were all friendly on the trail, asking questions about the RC's. Everyone had their own pace which was great as I had brought a friend for his first crawl. The ScalerFab Wraith had l...
Autism Awareness Crawlers Trail RunTake a run with Team ScalerFab Driver, Casey Dill, and the guys from Autism Awareness Crawlers at this week's feature location in Rock City on Mt. Diablo in California! Rock City on Mt. Diablo is one of the craziest places I've ever been to. It's very slippery and steep terrain not only puts your truck at risk but you too. It's totally worth it though especially when you're meeting up with the Autism Awareness Crawlers. These guys do sooo much to raise money for Autism Awa...
ScalerFab Showcase: Prerunner Bumper Series w/ Team Driver, Eric JaquayTake a look at the performance and scale appearance of the ScalerFab Prerunner Series Front Bumper on Team Driver, Eric Jauqay's Axial SCX10 II! Hey Tiny Truck enthusiasts, Eric.the.mechanic here today and boy what a day! got my brand new Scalerfab.com pre-runner bumper and rock sliders. All custom sized perfect for my scx10.2 Now I didn't have the rear cage finished on the new body I'm putting on it (stupid work always taken up all my time) but I was able to fit one of my old...
ScalerFab Low-Profile Roof Rack Install w/ Team Driver, Dave HallThis month my package from ScalerFab came in! Inside was a load of ScalerFab merch/ stickers and the ScalerFab low profile roof rack which I picked out for my cc01 pajero. I've been running a modified Sylvanian families roof rack which i picked up at toys r us for $20. Its worked well but was starting to deteriorate. So it was time for a upgrade to a ScalerFab all metal rack.The pajero roof has a slight step down which required me to but a couple of slight bends in the rack, once they whe...
Indoor Course Being Retired and the new Indoor Course will be underway soon.Veteran ScalerFab Team Driver Adam Nerby informs us of the retirement of the existing Indoor course and the plans on the rebuild during the summer! Well last weekend I have to say sadly I hosted my last comp on my indoor course, the turnout was lighter than previous comp but still a good one. I am going to be hand building a new course for the next winter season over the summer. As a club we have lots of new driver's joining us this year with all of them asking new questions on what t...
Just Go Drive It!As ScalerFab Team Driver, Oliver Barber knows, it doesn't need to be perfect to go out and have fun! I’m sure I’m not alone in this; I’ll have a number of projects on the go, and one fully functional truck, and then something breaks on the working truck, or I decide to do a rebuild, change something major to make it work better, etc. Whatever the case, I’m now without anything to drive or a few weeks until I slowly finish up another project or get around to “properly” fixing the original...
