Is the 18TM in the greevo a mod motor?? What was the gearing? I have a new respect for that engine.

Hey, didn't someone else have a link to their pictures dropped in somewhere in this thread? I see TTM2's pics, and Brians link, but is there one more? Or is it in a new thread somewhere? Thanks, if you know.
(Thanks TTTM2)

Want a good chuckle? Check out the massive turnout at this Berwyn Bash in 2003. Is this RC thing growing, or what?!
October Berwyn Bash! - t to the maxx2 - 11-02-2005
what happened to those jumps?
October Berwyn Bash! - Obsessive R/C - 11-02-2005
Wow!! What was there like 8 people?
October Berwyn Bash! - firesprink281 - 11-02-2005
the jumps got knocked down. its all grown over back there now.
October Berwyn Bash! - Ponch - 11-02-2005
I wouldn't say it's grown over, just alot of leaves and now some 1-2 foot bumps leftover.
October Berwyn Bash! - SixVi6-Camaro - 11-02-2005
memories.. berwyn bash 03. that was just after a small group of us got off the Crapsass... err traxxas Board and moved to Showmerc. I have pics someplace from before even then fall 02. back then it was even smaller with basically 3-4 guys showing up to bash around.
October Berwyn Bash! - Tex - 11-03-2005
alot of good Berwyn memories. We used to go like every weekend! it'd be 5-10 people (every weekend)
October Berwyn Bash! - Michowski - 11-03-2005
i started in early 04 and the big group was maybe 10 people. Still was fun but man this bash got huge.
October Berwyn Bash! - thenewguy821 - 11-03-2005
I started right around the same time as Michowski. All last Spring and Summer, there were anywhere between 5-10 of us at the Berwyn woods EVERY weekend. This year, there were only 3 main bashes (2 at Berwyn, one at Devry). This past weekend was the Largest gathering yet.
October Berwyn Bash! - Michowski - 11-03-2005
well we would gather more if there was still jumps in the back but o well. And racing has taken people away also.
October Berwyn Bash! - squirrel - 11-03-2005
i'd say there were enough jumps! three ramps from beginner to moderate to advance! next time we need to get an actual race going(course) and the grass drags!
October Berwyn Bash! - DAVEC-NITRO-RS4 - 11-03-2005
Speaking of ramps, who brought the smaller, but wider, wooden ramp. Looking at the details of that ramp in the pictures...that thing is the work of real craftsman. The side plates are slick! So, who's the woodworker?
Squirrel, next time I'll bring some stuff to lay out a race track. I agree, some kind of racing would be fun. Drag racing was great, but too many guys had already bashed-out of it by then and couldn't drag race. Maybe a little less aerobatics would keep more of the trucks running next time. But that CSRC ramp was too tempting!
October Berwyn Bash! - thenewguy821 - 11-03-2005
The smaller ramp was built by ObsessiveRC. He's quite the woodworker...
October Berwyn Bash! - PoPRC - 11-03-2005
My truck couldnt handle that CSRC ramp, plus my son and I's inexperience jumping ramps like that made the damage worse. The grass drags were fun, too bad I lost in the first race of the first round. Damn throttle linkage.

That's what I was gonna guess based on the van he was driving.
