Crawling

Houston RC got into RC Crawling in the summer of 2025 with 1/24-1/18 crawlers. We partnered up with brands like Axial, Kyosho, RC4WD, Vanquish, Furitek, Injora, MEUS, LGR and more to bring the community together and host crawling events. From weekly open crawl days, to monthly competitions. 

Inspired by RCMCCA rules, and to garner manufacturer support (by affiliation), our rules were tailored for local customers with fun and scale realism in mind.

While the detailed ruleset can be viewed HERE , below is a quick guide highlighting the major class differences. If something is NOT mentioned, please refer to the RCMCCA ruleset.
