Considering jumping your L over the house???

Before you decide to fullfill your childhood fantasies like jumping your car or truck over the house consider this...

VERY graphic...get the kids out of the room!

I know so do I. Did you see it was still moven after the jump. That thing was built tough. When I saw the title of this thread, I thought some guy actually rammed his truck into a house or something... You never know anymore. I'm glad it was just an rc car jumping a house. It was a cool video. Thanks, Shane

l-menace:

You could try it at Christmas...with all the family and friends in the
front yard...waiting for the brave l-menace to attempt such a surely dangerous and reckless feat...

I saw that the other day. My 8 year old son loved it. I cant believe it was still running, my old gas truck would always die if it flipped.

That would have been so much cooler if it was a real car

however, that was awsome, don't those things cost alot of money though? Still that was really funny, I think I'm gonna go try it with my L, how high would I have to make the ramp if I hit it at say...40 MPH? assuming no wind.

All them 1/8th nitro cars look the same. Still way to expensive to be doing that though.

Those suckers can cost a few hundred bucks easy...depends on what kind of mods he has done to it (if any) and what brand...etc.

Its a gas powered one so it starts at at *least* $300 I would say...but I wouldnt doubt if that one cost more.
