That angle is awesome!
What mods do you have done to your xmod?

CarlsV6 12-17-2003 10:37 PM

Thanks. No Damage. It's stock except for a little body trimming on the front to make it more friendly for general driving. I'll probably end up doing the usual motor, suspension, tire upgrades in the future though.

what did u make the ramp out of?

CarlsV6 12-17-2003 11:22 PM

It's just a piece of 8" Aluminum flashing, bout 10" long, bent as I desired. Really cheap and easy to make.

thanks

did you have secure the ramp? all of the ramps i have need to be secured down because they move with the car once the car hits it

CarlsV6 12-18-2003 03:04 PM

Excuse me Mr. Physics Professor, but they are not photshopped. For 1, I have no reason to photoshop something like this, 2, I don't have the skills to do such. The ramp is a smoothe curve. The front lip is trimmed off the car so it doesn't hit, it just rubs a little as it's going off the ramp. If I had a video camera I'd post a video but I see no reason to have to prove myself to you. You can also see the shadows on the wall in the background.

Also in the 2nd picture you can see the reflection of the car on the linoleum floor right before it hits.

if you are so smart you would know that with a regular camera you can "catch the wheels in action". they can be caught not turning. i belive him because i think he has no reason to not be telling the truth. we are a bunch of guys and gals from across the contry, why would he have to prove himself?

is it hard to get the car to actually go off the ramp, it was hard with my bits... i dont have an xmod yet... did u damage it at all???
