From the title of your thread I thought you guys had made a REAL catapult and were flinging your R/C's into the air !

Nice jump though

bigger jumps, bigger cars, faster motors and something impressive and your in business

I do suppose thats a little harsh, Maybe just bigger ramp so it launches higher?

Nice jump, looks like more of a basher track. Can see carnage in your future.. Make sure to have camera rolling
