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.

I might stop by the Toy r us by me and see if they have any more of the ones I have, anyone planning on going this Sunday to Floyd?

So, when are we meeting up next?

I'll be stopping by FBF soon! :)

RE: NEW YORK CITY BASH
 
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?

Where is everyone bashing these days? I usually hit astoria park because I live 1/2 block away but looking for other spots and people to get together with near queens.

I also have a backslacsh 4x4 (1/8 buggy conversion) with a mmp 2400 sct system (the wifes car) and a rustler mmp with leopard 4 pole running 4s (daughters).

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.

Goose1072 10-28-2012 01:56 PM

RE: NEW YORK CITY BASH
 
I'm game to go to Astoria skate park, I'm in Sunnyside so I can be there in 10min or less....LOL

This is what happen the last time I went to a skate park, [link=http://youtu.be/ThCFUzVOBbY]Savage Stake Park[/link] that's a friend of mine driving his Savage Flux and I'm the one filming & laughing...

RE: NEW YORK CITY BASH
 
I saw that this is why I go at night.

Goose1072 10-28-2012 02:39 PM

RE: NEW YORK CITY BASH
 
I been wanting to go to Astoria but don't want to hit anyone, I've always gone during the day.
They have lights at night?

robg68 10-28-2012 04:05 PM

RE: NEW YORK CITY BASH
 
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.

Voxmagna 10-28-2012 07:15 PM

RE: NEW YORK CITY BASH
 
I got nothing but Nitro :(, plus i hate landing on concrete does serious damage. unless its the XL

RE: NEW YORK CITY BASH
 
I'm going to hit Astoria skate park tonight at midnight. Anyone else game?

Hey robg68,

I might join you, gotta see what I have running.

robg68 11-02-2012 09:12 PM

RE: NEW YORK CITY BASH
 
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.

RE: NEW YORK CITY BASH
 
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.
