omg! That is a Beetle super airborne in the indoor arena shot! We have quite a few beaches nearby (living in the sunny south), might give it a go soon. Oh btw, I do normally kill my cars at this old bmx track because of 1 particular jump that is there, it is at quite an acute angle, and my belief is that the faster you go, the further/higher you go

Is that MB at a Monster Jam??? I was at the Toronto one with my FG (Hummer body) and didn't want to attempt that since it was all aluminum. Too much $$ to repair if it landed wrong.

Here is a few from last year. I say i got enough air but not sure how much.








If i had my DIgital SLR at the time then i would have gotten more shots when the truck was at it's peak height. This year I have the Nikon D70S for photos and the Panasonic PVGS -250 for videos

The only thing modded to my MT was just the FUEL and PAINT


You can never get enough air!
