Yeah, I think it'll be best to store the down ramps on top of everything else in the loft. Will be stronger vs making them up from smaller sections. And with all those crappy SC10s landing nose-first into them, they'll need to be strong.

To use it on club nights we will need people to help set up early and stay to pack away.

Only cos it wouldn't make it up the takeoff ........

We will have to use it tomorrow to test it out, but seriously it ain't called the 'Mega Ramp of Death' for nothing. It is Mega in every sense, so we will need people to help get it out and pack it up. Might have to be used for outdors and indoors offroad only.

Well the idea of it was to throw the car up into the air for height instead of distance, so it can be used in a smaller piece of track, like were it was last night, just need bit more of a straight run up to it for safety reasons

If they are the original gold shock shafts then it doesn't take much to break them anyways. buy some B4 fronts instead, they never break.
