Wow too expensive for Rc's you can get 2 or 3 ramps from Toys r us and still be less than half.
They do look great though, wish we can build one and keep it somewhere @ Floyd without it being taken or thrown away.

Yea, i got mine at toys r us a long time ago too. You can still get them there or online for $15-30. I was just asking about yours because I've never seen them as wide as those. The ramps definitely made the day.

When is soon? Do you have any offroad trucks or just cars?

Anyone up for checking out emaxx's spot in LI before it gets too cold? Honestly the only reason I wouldn't want to go is because of the price of gas. Maybe if we got a few people we could carpool and split the cost of gas?

I don't know if you guys are game, but I like to hit the Astoria skate park at midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. Not many skaters and the area is very safe with great parking. The jumps are huge, only the mugen is tough enough to bash at this spot everything else doesn't even last 5 minutes.

I go there when even I have time, there are a few nice jumps by the play ground and hell gate bridge. At night and after a lite rain I hit the skate park but like I say it will destroy anything but 1/8 buggies or truggies. Now I think we need to stick to electric, nitro will get us thrown out fast.

Nice bash, stepped it up a notch and lost a shock spring retainer. I can't believe how tough the mugen is, I was going wide open on 5s.

EmaXX's spot out on Ronkonkoma, L.I. I lost my RCs in the hurricane and he is hooking me up with a new truck for cheap. I have to go out there sometime to pick it up and bash a little so anyone is welcome to come. Check my post a little further up on this page also shows off the spot.
