Default Making a track (Now with very big pictures)

This is what I have so far for my track, dirt is kind of limited because there is tomany pine needles, I've never biult an RC track, just BMX. So I need so ideas on what to do to get allot of air, I'm sorta drawing blanks, I whould of had something better to biuld off of but I ruined my previuos jumps with our quad and a steel grate. [&:] Here are some pics of what I have so far.

Sorry the pictures are small my fault.

if you want the most distance go with a 45 degree angle for your jumps. you want the most air go with like a 60.

I figured out how to make the pictures bigger. So what do you think? What should I do to it to make it a good track?

The problem is all the other areas are sandy and arent good for jumps, also this area is out of the way of everything. I've almost hit the trees on my bike but I saved it at the last minute. Right now im biulding a really big jump, I' got a brick base with dirt piled on it and then I putting a piece of plywood on it. It will probably be pretty close to 5ft high.
