That's awesome. I did know what your going through..I started to make a track at my dads business...so far i had a downhill double, uphill doubl double, and a little double...i had many more plans for this and to make it into a nice track, 3 lanes wide. BUT, damn DEP or DCNR (one or the other or both..not sure) made us do sooo much stuff there and they said something about the "motorcycle tracks" and we had to get rid of everything and plant grass on all of it. I HATE those people who can come out and cost you thousands and thousands of dollars, just because they think they're some powerful hotshot.
but w/e.
post some more pics then! :cool:

looks like a nice start and nice material but i do have 1 question for you..... are you going to make the landing wider?

oo yea the landing isnt done at all, thats just from my shoveling the dirt off the truck. i havnt shaped it at all. i still need a few more truck loads of dirt

I think the take off is too abrupt to be going that far. It will most likely kick ur @ss end up.
