not to be cheeky Chris we didn't get it wrong at all today, the problem with it is if you hit it at any descent pace it kills the car, just roll up to it of throttle the BLIP it just on exit to ramp lands on down ram every time ISH?
ps had our best days racing in months loved it today
the new nosram brushless is ace

Not really, you just go miles

So long as you hit it with the car settled you can go as fast as you like, it only goes wrong when you are trying to accelerate or change direction on the upslope. Get you speed and line sorted on the straight before then just hold the car there, easy

Great days racing. The jump is a great addition to the track. i roofed it a few times but luckily no breakages. once you have got the speed and the line it aint so bad.
