Default Testing out my new ramp and the Shockwears! FUN PICS!

Well, today was one of those "man i am so glad to be alive/beautiful/picture perfect" days.

Testing the shockwears went great, these things stand up to some serious abuse!

And the new ramp is working perfect, great balance of distance and height.

I was hitting the ramp topped out WOT in second gear! FUN! No parts were broken today... Except for my buddies LST, man he cant catch a break, seems like everytime we go out, his truck breaks within a tank or two, bummer, but at least i had a camera man

And did i mention how beautiful it was today? Man Michigan in October, doesnt get any nicer.

Also on a side note, after the pics and the videos we shot (vids will be up soon hopefully) we gathered quite a crowd, several people in my little town stopped by and even cheered and clapped when we landed huge jumps. It was pretty cool, definetly a first for me, but i loved it. Anyway, here are a couple of quick pics:

Thanks for the feedback on the product. When you get a chance stop in this week with your trucks.

I wouldhave hit him wiht your truck, brake his shin bone and teach him a life lessin. And 55 feet? I think that is a bit fare? CAuse with the hight you have in your pics it looks like about 30 feet.

You would hit a kid with your R/C on purpose in hopes of breaking a shin bone, you are a class act. Hitting kids and girls with your R/C on purpose is a really good way to get them banned in public places, if that's what you are after.

If anything Mike is being conservative saying 55ft.

I understand you were probably joking, but I have to go with 2Dmaxx on this one. I'm not sure what I would do to a person if I saw them run one of these trucks into a kid on purpose... for any reason. I've taken a couple of lightweight truggies to the leg while marshalling and they hurt me bad enough, I can't imagine what kind of damage a LST could cause to a kid.


That ramp isn't that steep. It's not like it has a huge kicker on it or anything, so getting that kind of height off of that ramp is going to throw the truck out there pretty far. Probably 50' easy.

just an idea but if a kid 1)throws your truck, instead of hitting him with the truck, pick him up and throw him - see how he likes it
2)throws stuff at your truck, take the truck and throw it at him - again watch for after-effects

using this method you will not get r/c's banned, and you still get your revenge


p.s. im not responsible for broken trucks.....or children
