Default RE: Official Dark Impact Thread

Its got a layer of loose dust over hardpack. Its a good surface, they definitely need to do some more work on it. remove some random rocks and its got some ruts in places from rainwater washing it away and they need to make some real jumps and cover them with astroturf so they don't wash away. There is 3 actual dirt mounds on the track but they are bumpy to run up. A pair of them over on the right are supposed to be a "double" but they are so rough it kicks you off all cockeyed. Plus they dont have enough kick to get you actually up in the air. Like I said, it looks like a track for bashers, Stampede and Revo drivers with big tires.
It would help to spike the barriers in through the top instead of on both sides where you can rip an arm off if you hit it.

I did find I need to up the weight in my rear shocks though. I'd get nasty slap landing off of those jumps and I was only getting maybe 3 feet high at the most.
