We are hitting the 2007 Formula Toy season heavy. This year John James(Driver), Jerry Sparks(spotter) and H.T. Barnes(Crew Chief) will make up our competing force. The buggy has under gone a few changes. We Installed a set of 37" BFG crawlers mounted of 17" x 9" BeadLock Spealties Double RockLocks (inner and outer bead locks). A Howie Hydro assist was also added. The Detroits were removed in favor of ARB's. Look for us at Henderson, NV for the first WEROCK comp of 2007 on February 23, 24 and 25.

Also watch for Eric and Team Webster with their Green and Yellow Toyota.. We are proud to be Team Webster's exclusive Toyota Sponsor.

We are working hard to get the race prep done on the #28 formula Toy, and we're exited to get the season started as Team Marlin Crawler

.
If you plan on being at the event in Henderson, make sure you come by and say hi.

Thanks, That is a good idea. We'll see what we can come up with.

Let me know if I can help. I'd be happy to work on the artwork for free. I have a local supplier who does ~6" stickers for about $5/ea in small runs.

Team Marlin Crawler Took First Place!!

Marlin was there to watch all the action and he took plenty of pictures that I will share once he gets back

Go Team Marlin Crawler!!

Thanks Mike, we definately worked for it. We drew forth in the running order (out of 7) which is the best we have ever drew. This way we are in the middle of the pack on day one, and on day two when they invert the starting order we are in the middle of the pack again.
We finished day one 30 points ahead of second place feeling pretty confident. Well day 2 brought some REALLY hard courses. We cleaned the forst course. The second course killed us. We ended up timing out and scored a 40. this put Trail gear within striking range. The third course we scored a 3, but Matt scored a 1. This put Trail Gear 1 point ahead of us going into the last course.
Jerry and I worked almost flawless together scoring a 6 but Matt was competing after us so he had the advantage of being able to watch us and do exactly what we did. He was on his was to beating us by one point when he went out of bounds and was disqualified.
We took first, cody and Hal Deuschamp took second, and Matt ended up third.

Thanks to all the guys at Marlin Crawler for building a winning rig, and Marlin himself for coming out and supporting us.
