    It’s a Jeep that climbs rocks slower than a human. What is the point of all that metal just to be slower than a teenager or a Billy goat? It’s weird. It’s like a dragster that takes five minutes to do a run.

    RC ones…I truly don’t get it. It’s either for looking at on a shelf or the most boring time trials on earth. I’ve never seen scale rock climbing but I have watched paint dry and it sounds like a close tie.
    it's about the challenge, not the speed.

      The challenge of resisting the urge to just get out of the Jeep and just walk up the hill?

      That would be overwhelming. I wouldn’t be able to resist.

        If you have some truck or jeep, go get it off road, off camber, in a situation that is close to tipping over. Then tell me your heart didn't start beating faster and I'll be impressed. You didn't need speed to have a situation that is exciting.

        Not so much any more but I used to do a chunk of rock climbing. But stairs do exist. Same thing, you don't rock climb for the speed either

          The RC rock crawling for me is a great social and relax time.
          Grab a couple batteries and you are out on the trails for a few hours joking around with friends and family.
