I took a short video on me phone and will try and post it up later tonight.
It's about 18 inches high and goes across the short back straight and leads very nicely into the right hand bend.
Lets not talk about removing it .
The track is crying out for some features and this is the first. I firmly believe that features like this and an all day event once a month will attract new members and racers.

Hi

cool, look forward to it.

I am not saying I want it removed, just flexability.

Indeed we want to get an all day meeting for 2wd, 4wd and truck. Just need to fix a few things? How was the sounds today?

Well said that man !

It is just right and people will just have to learn how to jump.........most other tracks have them and it was desperately needed

So an education is needed... Sorry I wasn't there.

Yup a few things on the computer, printing etc needs to be tweaked.

I was there, I was rubbish, but I've not driven an RC car since September/October-ish. So it was to be expected.

I saw the work commence on the jump, but never saw the completed item, I'm sure it's quality though.

You cant have an off road track without any jumps, that's sooooo early 1990s.

I'm hoping to be there next saturday to lend a hand for a few hours. If you could get a time off Jules Mikey, that would be helpful, don't wanna get out of bed too early eh. lol

Indeed fingers crossed.

Yup Sky + and the use of the fast forward button. The pre race build up was more exciting.

I'll be sticking with ALMS (Sebring 12 hour), BTCC, Aussie V8's and Le Mans 24 hour (which I normally attend )

I can vouch for Crazy L, He was rubbish.
It was good to see some new faces, as well as some old (Lionel) welcome back Crazy.

The jump is an excellent addition to the track.

Very sensible height and placement, in fact it looks like its always been there!

I was even a little sceptical at first, but its spot on!

I got to use it for about an hour today, and reckon it may even help most drivers slow down and stop griprolling on the section after

Everyone ready for some hard graft tomorrow???!

As Mike said if you can bring tools too to aid us in areas where the digger can't get to etc. that would be great.

Tom will be there tomorrow and I will follow up after football training (11:30ish). Carol will drop him off, so please look out for him. By the way he is just as strong as me now . . . . or is it I'm getting weaker with age
