Well last nights efforts ensured that Ant cleared my head with relative ease, and ended up landing in my neighbours tree. So we re-profiled, and the new @martin Reid' edition take-off is much more driveable.
Plenty more work to do though.......

"Handy Antnee" is looking decidedly professional; pencil behind the ear, tape measure in hand. Just make sure he doesn't get hold of the power tools. They're for adults only. :lol:

He did nearly screw me to the ply actually with his electric screwdriver. MArtin brought one down that had a 3.5 in it :D
Next build day is going to be Monday. I am starting work early so should be home around 2-3pm ish and gonna keep going till I run out of sunlight.
If anyone can make it over would be much appreciated.

Also, its a good job we are going to have extended tracks for the weekend series, as the ramp fully assembled is about 5-6m long :wub

This will never pass health and safety. I hope Dave is going to bring plenty of spares to racing. Got a feeling we're going to need them :thumbsup:
although i enjoy racing out door,i cant wait to go indoor:thumbsup:see yall friday:woot:

I'm looking forward to going indoor racing too.
I have sold 2 chassis from my collection over the last two weeks.
A very small prize for anyone who knows what the two were.
A very small prize. A body clip, maybe two if I feel generous.

Looking at the down ramp, does that come apart? Great length for a downramp though :-)

Nope.
Not Tamiya or buggies.

The down ramps are 2x 8x4 sheets of mdf. They will be stored in the loft (well paul ok'ed it)

Nah. I love me e revo. It even kept up with the sc10s outdoors.
Considering getting a bigger motor for it coz I'm daft like that.
The Doctor
01-09-2010, 07:26 AM
Yeah, I think it'll be best to store the down ramps on top of everything else in the loft. Will be stronger vs making them up from smaller sections. And with all those crappy SC10s landing nose-first into them, they'll need to be strong. :lol:

Will we be using it on club nights mate. I think Dave should be the first to jump it with his mini :woot:.

To use it on club nights we will need people to help set up early and stay to pack away.

sorry but my mini wont be going over the ramp :lol:

Only cos it wouldn't make it up the takeoff ........:p
We will have to use it tomorrow to test it out, but seriously it ain't called the 'Mega Ramp of Death' for nothing. It is Mega in every sense, so we will need people to help get it out and pack it up. Might have to be used for outdors and indoors offroad only.

It nearly claimed my head twice!! as I was marshalling it....yep well done for time and effort into building it....it's a bit too steep for my liking though:(
antnee
11-09-2010, 12:37 PM
Well the idea of it was to throw the car up into the air for height instead of distance, so it can be used in a smaller piece of track, like were it was last night, just need bit more of a straight run up to it for safety reasons

If they are the original gold shock shafts then it doesn't take much to break them anyways. buy some B4 fronts instead, they never break.

I noticed that if we are short on space, someone could pit under the mega ramp. Oh, how about putting the tuck shop under there. Natty.
