Garden Spider as stated above. Will cause a fright if you walk through one of their webs in low light conditions...gives you the creeps, but they are a great asset in the volume of bugs they eat.

Awesome, thanks guys for the info.
Randy, I just talked to Mitch on the phone and he is bringing his proto 917 to race against your Cheetah so i will bring my proto Sugar Caddy to add to the field. I hope we can run them down the track.

Jeff

I think it's a golden orb spider. Gnarly looking, but won't bother you. Funny how their body and leg structure are so much like that of a black or brown widow...

awesome jeff
i am trying to find out who runs the track
and getting a few runs just for us and maybe even hyped a bit i have my cheetah and a proto camaro i am running

Hey Jeff,

Funny joke...Holoween rubber spider...Lol!

[FONT=century gothic]Holy Tartantula! I would definitely stay away from that one.

Looks like it is ready for a footprint

I haa huge spider streched between the front post and the pear tree in the front yard. Harmless or not it caught me by surprise and scared the #$%^ out of me
