I also do my best to make "outs" for gates we think might be problems. Nobody is perfect, but I do try my best. There were several gates on the class 1 courses that I could not get without a winch. Others, with longer wheel bases, walked the gate.
In the future, I will be allowing others to take a more active role in building courses. So, be
prepared to step up and try your hand at it. I will still bring my gates in case others do not have any sets. Hopefully others will be willing to help out.

Wes, the course that you just "threw gates down" for class 1 had 2 sets of gates with an out of bounds on te SAME rock. If that's not specifically for a tiny tight turning truck I'm not sure what is. It's our own fault for NOt walking thought before everything started becuase I would have pointed that out. I'm not going to destroy my rig dealing with a 1.9 crawler course. The courses should be challenging but no so rediculous as you risk a 10 foot fall as you tumbled pretty well a few times. These are just a few things to keep in mind when building courses.

I agree Wes
Unfortunately when someone builds a coarse you
Do build it to what u feel is possible and not
Possible well in retrospect that goes hand in hand with what your rig may be able to do I have built coarses alot. I always try and ask everyones opinion if I think there may be a hard gat but let's face it. Some times we think it's gonna be
Hard and everyone walks right through. Other times we think it's a cake walk and bam it's
The hardest gat of the day. It's the nature
Of the hobby no reason to get
Bent out of shape over it. And I also agree all rigs have what there really good and and not so good at it's lie comparing apples to oranges or bacon to Canadian bacon
