Since Shane painted his car last spring, he has needed something to occupy his time. He found that in the form of a remote-controlled Rock Crawler. Apparently there is a whole RC Crawler realm in this world and he has become a dabbler in the art. His little hobby doesn't come with a matching budget. But he really enjoys being able to work on it, tweak it and try it out on the rocks. Now he has 2 different bodies for the chasis, one is a VW Bug and the other is a Jeep Wrangler. Both have their unique qualities. The Bug body is more for hard core crawling and helps keep things from getting damaged because it just rolls back onto the wheels when flipped.
The Jeep looks a little more to scale and is really just for fun and looks. Shane's favorite place to climb is out at Black Rock on the south shore of the Great Salt Lake. It's a popular spot too. They even hold crawling competitions out there. I have kind of enjoyed watching him crawl and want to get my own in the future. Shane said that he will take me to Moab for the day during Jeep Safari since I have never been and so we can watch the real crawlers do the same thing on a bigger scale.
