yupp i finally finished my landing and i got to hit my ramp this afternoon.Thats right i hit my ramp with stock shocks and razr2s fornt and back :macho i pulled it up about 15 feet away jsut to roll over it and then i moved it back to 25 and thats as far as i got it back today becasue it got dark (i kept jumping in the dark but i didnt wanna pull it back futher and try it in the dark). i just dunno what to say its soooooooooo smooth my frined brittany is coming down monday to take pics so i should have pics monday night

if your wondering my ramp is 5'4" tall 13 feet long (with the flip down) and 6 feet wide .........my landing is 6 feet tall

yea im using a 35 degree final angle for my ramp ive got the plans for my ramp some where around here when i find them ill post them i used the cut and weld method and it worked great for me.

ANYONE that wants to come and ride my ramp just PM me and let me know and ill take off a saturday you can come. id be glad move the ramp up close and then move it back gradually to let people hit it. I live 1 hour NE of texarkana in arkansas so you can find out how far i am away the nearest town is Bluff City i think its on a map of arkansas lol
