Cool vid...

Just a little something to practice. Once your truck leaves the ramp, let off the throttle. By staying on throttle, the torque of the motor pulls the front wheels up, causing all the landings on the back of the truck. With a little practice, you'll have the truck landing on all 4 wheels. If the front doesn't come down enough, give a quick blip of reverse.

I only mention this, because the landings sounded pretty brutal. Its just a matter of time till parts start breaking. Landing on the wheels will lessen the force on the other parts.

Yeah I have been practicing that. Ive already got some cracks in the tranny casing... Grr. But the truck did get a good 4 years of run and have had no problems with the tranny.
