Barry,

Thanks for the link, some excellent videos there too and the guys certainly have their cars set up right as the engines never seem to cut out. I have seen this done near me too, there is an excellent spot for this at the back of the Little Orme near to Llandudno, it is a disused quarry and has plenty of wide open space and bumps for all those sort of jumps too.
The cars do take quite a bashing with that kind of driving, amazingly some just seem to absorb whatever punishment is thrown at them and never seem to break, although I have seen a few casualties too with broken linkages, suspension and wishbones. Especially on the Bigger heavier cars like the Savage.
Great fun to watch though.

Regards......Mark.
