i thought it looked like a bike ramp cause it was so narrow. There is a skate park thing around us. I'd love to take my nitro off one of the jumps just to see, but those skater kids never leave (cause it's free)
 
That ramps frickin crazy i want one. Btw I'm a skater and if you ask those skaters to let you ramp it they will. Guarenteed they want to see a cool little radio control car launch the jump. But before you launch it...bet them that you can launch higher...then win and collect your money!!

hey maybe I could pay for the repairs with my winning :hehe:
 
I dig the angle of the ramp. Its not STRAIGHT up at the top. I prefer better trajectory vs. height. The key is to be able to land. Hit that ramp doing 40+ mph and you should still be able to land due to the angle.

Good job.
 
Here is what I think!
We should all get together once a year or mabey twice and have the BIG AIR contest to end all BIG AIR contest.

I'm DOWN!!!

Name the time and place!... I borrow my cousins Savage. :hehe:
 
Christian was saying about the trajectory. I agree. The little curve in it makes all the difference.

I was thinking about building one just for R/C's. Take some 1/4" plywood or something bendable and make a nice scoop going both directions. It wouldn't have to be that tall. I'm thinking like 1 foot max. The scoop will give you all the air you need. It will, however, have to be wider. Four foot wide or something cause hitting a small target sucks at high speed.

I have all the tools (and the plywood too). :D Maybe I'll just shut my pie hole and make one. :P

I was thinking video. I think it should be pretty sweet. Tinkering with the idea of going to Lowes this weekend to grab some lumber I need for it. Shouldn't cost that much. :D
 
I should be able to accommodate a 'NorthEast' track get together. I'm building one at my cousins as soon as the weather breaks. I'm starting with about 20 ton of fill/earth. I just might to have to make it 18 and older though. Insurance/Entertainment purposes.

:bling:
 
Hey Christian, I may have to grab a few buds, & embark on a road trip up there.... Bashin on Long Island is gettin boring....lol
 
RCNT members seem to bunch up around the Buffalo area. I'm only 5 hours away, but Christian has already said he'd punch me square in the mouth. I think I'll my distance. :normal:
