Fiesta Island E-Revo bash (video and pictures) - 06.02.2008, 07:07 PM

I would first like to mention that this is the first video I have ever edited, so I could not figure out how to do everything. It also did not help that the cameraman couldn't keep their hands still for the life of them. lol Anyway, it was a good day of bashing with no broken parts.

Two pictures of the Revo after the bash:



And here are two pictures of a "smart" guy trying to show off that his truck can drive in a lake.



And finally the video: (Once again, sorry about the shakiness...)

Good job on the video and it looks like you have an awesome spot to bash. Also what size pinion do you use?

I didn't know you live in that direction of me! I'll definitely let you know next time I'm out there.

Mike_D - I am running an 18 tooth pinion and 38 tooth spur. Speeds are about 38 - 40mph.

That was the first vid you've ever edited? I thought it was really good! I actually watched the whole thing when usually I give up halfway through. :-)

Great spot to bash too.

Yes, kulang, that was the first video I edited. The other two video's under my username were edited by friends. It is a great spot to bash, it is just a shame I don't get to go there more often. Its funny because every time I go there, the mounds of dirt are different shapes, sizes and in different places than when I was there the previous time...

Haha, I was just there Tuesday bashing along with a friend of mine. There were tractors and trucks hauling/moving dirt all over the place. We ended up finding a little tiny mound of dirt away from all of them, but it wasn't too bad. I think they use the dirt on the beach, or take beach dirt and put it where it is in the middle. There was a good 4 or 5 months that they had the PERFECT hill about 2 years ago, I still remember it, haha.

Where else do you bash in SD? I'm really at a loss as to where else I can go, and I don't think I want to drive around forever looking for a place.

E-Traxxer: Glad to hear there is another RC-Monster member in San Diego. Maybe sometime later this summer, we can get a little bash with Matthew_Armeni and whoever else that lives near by who wants to come. Fiesta Island is pretty much the only place I go to bash. However, it is a good 15 to 20 minutes away (I'm in Del Mar area), so laziness kicks in when I want to go there. But other than that, I'll sometime just run my trucks on my street or at the school which is up the street from me. I also remember it how it was 2 years ago. Too bad now that area has like a hundred piles of hardened dirt with rocks... unless it changed since I went during the video.

Thanks TruckBasher!

You're in Del Mar? I'm in Carmel Valley(ish). We're not too far away from each other.
When I went on Tuesday, there looked to be one good hill that wasn't too rough, but the tractors were moving pretty much everything, so I'm not sure if it looks the same now. We would have scoped it out but there were signs telling us to go around.
I'd like to get a bash together sometime. I always end up inviting a friend of mine who drives my extra RCs (he doesn't have any of his own). The bigger the group the better!

Is that your Toyota ute? Wish they were bought to Australia. We just got our 2nd TRD vehicle in Australia which is the TRD Hilux and looks great but only come in 4 door.





Nice video to, looks like a great spot and you had alot of fun
