Bloody lovely !
Now I REALLY want to get Rockhead back on the road !
I can't believe how long it is taking to get a spare part for a current model truck. Toy Traders haven't got a clue. Let's all sign a petition to give Monster Truck Parts distribution rights to Tamiay Monsters.

If you bring the ramp to the next meet ,that will mean i will have to mod BJ again.
I'll have to put the big shocks back on her to improve the articulation angle.
She will drive like a drunken sailor and there is a good chance she will self destruct again but at least i will win the ramp comp
Well done on the initiative ramp James'y boy. |

Awww shucks
I'd been thinking for a while that you guys were only missing a travel ramp for the comps to be more like TTC etc... and i got bored on the weekend so i thought i'd make it. J.K came round tuesday arvo and i got him to close his eyes and put his hands out and when he saw it his eyes lit up like a kid at christmas !!
I think i'll be joining you all for the next crawling meet too, looking forward to it !!!! Any of you want anything like this made up just give me a yell.
Cheers, Jeremy |

The ramp is awesome... and it will be sporting big www.mudcow.com stickers up the side at the next comp
Surfection, would it be much work to modify it so that it was adjustable from 20/30/40 deg angle? The steep angle is great for the crawlers, but will have some other trucks there that aren't quite as flexy. |

No worries! It is probably a world first having an RC ramp so don't feel bad about having to adjust it to get it right for the scale stuff... You have done an awesome job!
I'll be in touch! |
