Took the car last night to the local bmx track with 2 batteries... was some good fun, cleared a few jumps.. On the second battery i went to the start gates and went for the first jump, first time i nearly got it. So went back for another shot and she landed on the rear right wheel and because i had previously stripped the thread on the hole in the suspension arm, the screw fell out... I didn't take my tool box with me so it ended my day early.. :(
I'm still thinking about getting a nitro car so that would be alot of fun...

Yeah I take my Savage to Bullcreek BMX track occasionally, and I use the huge dirt jump...its a helluva lot of fun, but I tend to break a few things after a while :)

It is loads of fun, and those jumps are the perfect size for offroad RC

This jump looks harmless enough, but that scalloped out part tend to make the trucks jump toward the sky. Think of the ski jump's at the winter Olympics.
They always land on their bums.

I am suprised at how well the Mad Bison takes the jumps. It seems very well balanced and generally lands on all 4 wheels
