I finally got around to building a ramp this weekend and just had to try it. Its is height adjustable and when I got it steep enough, I was able to get my monsoon to backflip!

I only had a camera phone with me so the video are just short clips, but I was a heck of alot of fun.
Check out the clips:

Nice!
Had chance this past Tuesday to build a portable/adjustable ramp myself. I put a bit of an arch into it so it doesn't have to be set very tall to get good air. I was going to use the Tornado as my training vehicle, but the steering has been a bit off. So, I grabbed the Warhead and put through some punishment. I was getting about 4 ft airs and most of the time couldn't get to land on all 4s, so the truck took a major punishment that day. Finish the virgin session with only a broken front bumper and antenna tube and a bent rear body mount (good thing I didn't have the body on)......not bad, I'd say. Can't wait to go at it again!!!!! When I can get it set up with some good running space, I'm going for those flips. Also need to find a camera guy to get some video of the carnage and blunders.
