the new ramp is done!! made from a 4'x8' sheet of plywood. and sits 4'6" at the height of the ramp. i also have extra legs for it to make it more steep so at the end we can shoot the moon!!!

well that was a bit of a let down. we had more fun afterwards at joes. this was the last day for the storm. but at least it had one good bus jump in. by the end of the day the chassis was bent bad in the back, the top plate was broken, the center shafts were bent, the shock towers were bent. so i retired it.

sorry to see it go.
I actully enjoyed the event.. I checked the camera.. we were only allowed 10 minutes. 
That being said.. getting cheer's for every donut and every jump was great! I hit the BIG jump a few times.. but it eventually did in both trucks! I thought it was a good effort with a great response.. nothing better then showing 10,000 people how cool RC is! I would bet some of those people go out and buy RC's tomorrow.
I think Tim even gave out some autographs! I need to get some sunglasses!  _________________ Brian(at)BigSquidRC.com http://www.BigSquidRC.com
