AXIALFEST 2021: The Full Experience (Part I)

Here you go!!! #Axialfest 2021 - the full experience! Axialfest is a scale remote control offroad event in the Tahoe, CA area that brings together hundreds of hobbyists for 3 days of tiny trucking, events and competitions. This was my second year attending, and it did not disappoint. So fun catching up with old friends and making new ones, all around the scale RC hobby. Oh! And I got to drive the Lasernut Racing full scale comp crawler #PrettyPenny. What a rush!
I cut this edit into two parts because I could not leave any of the great convos and interviews with you out! Feel free to skip around the chapters as well.
Part 1 (Scale Ultra 5k, Driving Pretty Penny, Interviews, Night Crawl)
Part 2 (Concours, Rock Racing, Rock Bouncing, Awards, Interviews): • AXIALFEST 2021: The Fu...
And wanted to say a big thanks and shout out to everyone who made an appearance in the video!!

i get a little emotional everytime i see the Operation 11 Charlie guys. So amazing what they are doing, literally saving lives.

[@mtnmyke]

✊

[@RCGirl]

Agreed! They were so nice and even let us use their booth to fix my Ryft. :)

[@sol029]

22 suicides a day! These guys are doing such a great service giving vets a community to be a part of back home.

[@scottdaubenspeck2291]

Awesome video. That Operation 11 Charlie is amazing. Thats what these Vets need is someone there to help through the hard times. Not out on the streets trying to survive. Amazing stuff there.

[@kulr3924]

good job on the big crawler i wanna go!! haha

[@RCGirl]

Thanks!! I was freaking out the whole time driving it 😂

[@nogocux]

Kev, you need to rethink the monstertruck, a crawler is much cooler.

[@balanbeeify]

Come over next year !

[@dirtrc.]

Love you Kev 😉😂

[@warpig24v81]

Kev come to Cali

[@outbackrcaustralia4895]

Great video!👌 Thanks so much for sharing 👍🦘🇦🇺

[@TachyonDriver]

Thank you for sharing this event, RC Girl! Much jealousy of you having a drive of the full scaler!!

[@RC4all]

Nice video, Looked like a great time, that Cali weather just on point 👍🏼

[@RCGirl]

It was HOT! Got a little smokey from a nearby fire on Saturday but otherwise it was good

[@jaredgreen502]

Great video & nice work on the Altra 5k! Surprised neither you or Harley mentioned each other in one another's vids since you both ran Pretty Penny? You had more footage & so awesome to run a crawler of that caliber. Makes quick work out of some Unbelievable terrain. Nice driving!

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

Man that looks like a lot of fun! Great rigs!

[@breakingmoney3077]

Oh my goodness you are awesome my goodness girl. Perfect and extremely impressive!! You're a natural 4×4 queen 👑!!!!

[@donharsh5469]

Awesome video 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 and enjoying and watching now and nice looking RC truck and car too AWESOME RC Girl 😎👌❤️

[@cbthecollector]

The Op 11 Charlie is awesome, I’m a vet and didn’t know about it! That’s super cool. Glad you highlighted them!

[@michaelmacisco2566]

This is great ! Thanks for sharing. Hoping to make it out to one of these..

[@BlueDually4x4]

Love what the people at Operation 11 Charlie are doing. If I had an Axial rig I would go.

[@TheRcKiwis]

Looks like awesome fun! Wish we had an event like this in NZ! Fantastic video ❤️

[@overbese]

"For us this is therapy." I would say a good portion of the rest of us too.

[@jeffparryncc1701]

4:25 Thank you for your service 👏👏👏👏 The rigs this year are spectacular.

[@norsefalconer]

Great video! Near impossible for me to attend, so I really appreciate the coverage.

[@prestonsrc]

Incredible! That would be a real hoot. Nice Driving 🤘🏼

[@eric1138]

Very cool. Looks like you had a blast.

[@averyhubatch139]

Awesome! You have one of the coolest intro's of any rc channel.

[@HunterTravels]

Just signed up for my first one . Glad I can watch this to get an idea.

[@gwpattrick]

That looked fun, glad you had fun.

[@88davidw]

This is so awesome. Well done for putting this video together. Wish I could go one day. Crawling in Cali looks so much better then the UK.

[@TachyonDriver]

Indeed, although there are some good spots over here (weather dependent!) - I live near the Trough of Bowland so there's a bit of scope. It's great that there are Veteran support organisations involved in RC - our UK veterans could do with more respect in these crazy times..

[@nogocux]

Great event, great video.

[@allmightygreatone1048]

Thank you . Fun video.

[@BennyTygohome]

That is awesome!

[@stacygardner7959]

this is one awesome video, (had to watch the pretty penny part a few times)

[@RCGirl]

Yeah it was so fun. I thought they'd maybe let me drive a fire road. Then he showed me the route... LOL!!

[@andrewrichey7374]

Wow super cool, appreciate it RC girl for sharing.

[@RCPropaganda]

Great video footage. I saw you but you were always busy lol. Wife and I wanted a picture with you. Maybe next year.

[@1622_SCALE_DIVISION]

Cracking video, great to see some of the social media guys that I recognize, needs a UK version I think as that's a fair swim for me 😆

[@Darkcloud1983]

You killed it my lady good stuff, I will doing the ultra next year just have to beef up the bomber

[@RCGirl]

All i did to mine were metal steering links, rear sway bars and dual fans on the motor.

[@mtrccrawler6300]

Siiiick video! I love you axialfest videos!!

[@mefisto003]

RCgirl I’m in love with all your videos and thanks to persons like you I feel great building my own rc cars thanks for everything

Wow ya did great on the 5k…. Way to go

[@semmymetts2833]

We need a video game all about this!! Yea??

[@mattiasrc]

Ohh wish i could visit this awesome event, but it´s a bit to far away. Thanks for sharing.

[@mtnmyke]

There was a group from Russia!

[@SLRC17]

awesome, that's a real crawler😃

[@trailwomanrc]

Looks like a blast. Would be nice to see more scx24 there. A 5k in 24th scale would be quite a stroll. lol These events make me wish I had some 1/10s.

[@manong7413]

차 굴리기 너무 좋은 코스야~ 대단해!😊👍👊

[@junelopez9520]

Thank You

[@SyndicateRC]

Awesome Event...

[@galendcia]

lovely fest, i love it 👍

[@Wannaridebikes]

I've done real jeep crawls. It fun is it not. You did great on it. The drag down that was nice. What a rush.

[@michaelthomas3262]

nice driving skill :D - and Brian = he is my man

[@sol029]

Fantastic content RC girl.

[@DadsRCHangar]

That looked so much fun, not sure we have something like this in the UK.

[@friktionrc]

We dont sadly…..definitely nothing organised by a brand in such a swish way. At the most, we get the odd group of folks meeting up at a local level and that’s it. Maybe us ‘customers’ can organise something like they do ‘bashfest’ for 1/5th scale and then invite HobbyShops to attend and they can get the big brands to send supplies and help sponsor it …🤔🤷‍♂️

[@MassimoHely]

nice video .ciao from Italy

[@jeffsrcchannel2191]

I'm Binge watching everyone's Axialfest 2021 video's as we don't have anything like this in Australia.

[@dutchloveRC]

thanx for sharing ; )

[@sprocket374]

Thanks for the video. Question.... If you could take only one vehicle which one would you take to Axialfest next year? Best all around/fun?

[@weaponxa]

I actually met Wisdom at the Best buy I worked at lol! Wicked cool guy!

[@RockmanRC]

Nice 😍🎉🤙🏼

[@sigmaloner4013]

awesome driving, you should compete

[@OH-Hobbies]

Knights Ferry Crawlers!!

[@FippeM123]

3:48 This loocks soo cool 😄😉

[@devonasher7857]

So question I’m still fairly new in the rc world I’ve had a slash for a couple years now and love ripping around the makeshift track in my back yard but want to get into crawling I’m looking at the trx4 just cause I already have money invested in the traxxas family with chargers and batteries and wonder if it would be worth going into the axial family since they are the og when it comes to crawlers.

[@mikej8832]

It's hilarious that since I started watching KZbin RC channels that I seen Parker who I worked with back in the 90's at FedEx St Louis airport facility.

[@RCGirl]

Ha!! So funny

Wow! RC Girl drives the real thing. Uh-oh! I think her hobby is about to get REALLY expensive! :)

[@RCGirl]

LOL i know. I was seriously considering moving to the desert to switch jobs to full time comp crawler haha

[@mikejurnak4253]

I would love to go to one

[@manong7413]

오우~ 실차를 끌고 올라가다니.....ㅎㄷㄷ

[@emilgabl9069]

Do you think the Ryft would be a good ultra5k rig, if not do you recommend another rig instead?

[@Jeff-fv9rk]

Wish I had Some notice of this event and could have been there! A little bit of time for me to save up some gas money and I could have been there.

[@CCRCAdventures]

Man I so wish they would do something like this on the East Coast

[@RCGirl]

They do - Axialfest Badlands
