ScalerFab Veteran Team Driver Brenda Sumner shares how team mates get it done!How Teammates get it done at the 801 Comp by ScalerFab Veteran Driver Brenda Sumner. What an amazing day out at White Rock. Great turnout again for the 801 comp. Started the course running with my teammate Brandon. We got through gate 7 before I stripped my servo horn. As I was replacing it, Brandon blew his transmission gears. I waited with him as he fixed it, but he dropped one of the gears down the hill and had to find another. After finding another we got going and again I had issues wi...
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...

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 Sponsored Event Update w/ NWI TTCNWI TTC Season is in Full Swing with the ScalerFab presents the Axial 2017 NWI TTC points series So far this year is off to a great start. On February 12th we held our 2017 Season Opener (the first of 9 sanctioned events this year).

We even had 6 kids in our FREE kids class, these kids even went home with something to h...
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...
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...
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...
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...
ESCC event Recap in the words of ScalerFab Team Driver, Steve StudstillScalerFab Team Driver Steve Studstill tells us of his fun experiences at the recent ESCC event with his Class 1 and Class 2 Trucks! February 19, 2017 ECSS on the beach. Beautiful Sunday morning in Georgia on Lake Lanier would be the setting for the second class 1 and first class 2 event of this year. The rocks were wet from morning dew and ready for action. The courses for class 2 were very hard and very technical. With 20 rigs entered for that day, finishing 8th Place was the best I could ...
California FAMILY Crawling with Team ScalerFab Driver, Casey Dill!Its all about the FAMILY FUN!! as stated by ScalerFab Team Driver Casey Dill. Here are a few pics of one of the coolest spots to crawl at, in my opinion. It's in Santa Rosa CA and it's called Flat Rock Creek. Most of the time my oldest daughter just runs around and freaks me out when she jumps off the rocks. But this time, she wanted to drive with my wife and I. We had a blast too, she is becoming a great driver. So is my wife, she was doing the lines that the big tire (aka training ...
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...
