      ...in the back yard...

      Mostly stock Axial SCX10.2 Just some wheel-wells from china, a winch servo, punkin' guards, and some accessories for the roof rack.

      I think I made the steep incline too steep... I think it's between 90% and 100%, plus I added the crossed up logs... I added some old roof shingles for traction. The bare wood was too slippery. It's still barely scalable when there is even the littlest amount of mud on there. (see the very end of the second video)

          Those tattered old bridges were the inspiration, although the wood is still a little new on mine. (only 6 months old).

            Wood is so handy for building scale obstacles but usually offers such poor grip. It's a terrible catch 22. Garden pavers and bricks are fantastic, though.

                @just-jeepin I'd get vertigo on that bridge with how skinny it is, but that's just me.

                Some journalist told me about this site. Now I own three cars.
