I think it can be accomplished correctly. put the loop in the top of the jump. Itll be a kool finish line jump...maybe a tower on each side with a banner going across high enough a marshaller can go under it, and with flames igniting out of the towers when the winner crosses!! oh yeea!

I always liked having a charged buggy and charged truck when building the track. Build one section at a time til it works right with test vehicles, then move on to the next part. But that was when we did it with shovels and it took 7 full days of labor. You have a skid loader now, take your time.

Good point Lee, that's how I always did it at Mike's. Tamp a spot down with a shovel or whatever then try it out with somebodys car before packing the whole jump down. Lots easier to rework the loose dirt, than trying to reshape something packed down.
I even used to build the take off jump alone, and jump a car simply to see how far I should put the landing. Use a stock equipped vehicle so you know all classes should be able to clear it.

Exactly. I will admit that Alex gets pretty close just guessing, though. I think partial revisions should take place if needed after the track is built. Run it, pick out the flaws, then change those flaws. Seems like the design gets treated like its set in stone once complete. I don't see what woulda been wrong with revising that triple. Instead we kept it the same for a month. It'd be easy to. Change half a track every two weeks instead of a whole track once a month. Less boring too. Just my thoughts. Don't bite my head off.
