It felt like i left the planet the first time i did it. I over jumped it real bad by like 15 ft. I won't be doing any more jumps like that for a little while, that track is more than 100 miles from my house. I was the 1st quad to ever jump that jump in a race as well. I really need to get a job soon that way I can get some shocks by the end of summer too.

That jump was the most amazing jump i've ever done. I'm still on my stock shocks too. after the jump we go through the scoring chute, around a berm over a whoop and over two more doubles, on the last double, I laded flat about 20 ft past it, my belly pan hit the dirt hard. As soon as my tires hit the ground i was in 4th and the throttle was pinned again. Funny thing is my suspension is still in half way good shape.

Thats at least 50ft, I have a 45 footer built at my house and it looks like that jump is quite a bit farther than mine.

I know when i flatted it, the motorcycle guys said i was really pushing 75 ft. all i can say is I hope i get shocks soon.

Yeah, I first over jumped my 45 footer by about 10-15 feet and that hurt. I broke my speedo lens with my helmet. Hopefully I will be getting some Elka's soon.

I did after the race though. My mom thinks I ran a 12.5 minute lap over roughly 7 miles of track. KFC gave us gas money for one race.

KFC gave us gas money for one race.

Hey that stinks no wings.:cool:

But seriously I think it would be cool to have a big bucket of chicken sent for each race and they could throw in a can of race gas too but just not fry the damn chicken in it.

Hey high octane chicken I know a few neighborhoods where that would sell like crazy:D
