Thanks XV! Love my TD, just wish I could figure out a way to stop breaking axles every run :/

C'mon guys - where are the haikus? You need to stick to the rules!

Looks like he knows what he's doing with that Lunchbox!

The haikus are the best part IMHO

The box art Lunchbox

Leaps joyfully through the air.

What a lovely sight!

some fun today

White shoes, a mower,

And an Avante flying

Straight at the camera!

Perhaps some don't know how to haiku?

Five beats on the top,

Then seven, and then five more.

It's Willy simple.

Haha, when I saw the topic in the index I got the wrong idea...

That brown smear in the distance is lovely Sydney. On a sunday. Taken from my Multiplex Funcub.

But to make amends, here is what the op was after....

Sorry about the funny colour, I was asking a very basic camera to take very fast shots...

Oops

[zomboided]

Bullheads are so beautiful, especially upside down

Oh, WOW. That's a total winner. And the color is just fantastic. Took me back for a second. AWESOME!!!

BMT, love the landing with the tires all compressed. Good shot.

[AndyjcClod]

It certanly did although....

A week later I was using the same car in a carpark and all of a sudden one of the tyres exploded with a jet out water shooting out of it!

Big hole in the tyre! When I took the other tyres apart they also contained water logged spounges so it truned out a quite expensive outing for 4 new tyres

I take it your rig
Has waterproof electrics
Fitted in this shot?

[markbt73]

Same jump as before,

But this time, four wheel drive and

A pilot called "Crash."

[Crash Cramer]

I resemble that remark. Nice stance and looks like the landing would have been just as smooth

[Effigy3]

First day at the track

Flying high over the jumps

Landing with a smile

[markbt73]

An ode to my $50 garage-sale Clod Buster:

Battered behemoth

Purchased for next to nothing

Worth every penny.

[Crash Cramer]

I would love every minute of that, nice buy and shot too.

[Scapelnz]

Berman you are a legend! This would have to be my favorite shot of all time!!

A bunch of TC members agreed with you, as it won me first place in the 2012 Xmas comp! Very proud of that pic, and very grateful for the comments and votes.

Hey Kelly, you snuck that one in there. Sometimes it gets all mixed up when I click on the link to see the posts and I had missed the flying finn your son built with you.

Yeah, he was a champ at the track. I started him out with stock tires but the front end was pushing in the turns so I swapped him out to some AKA Vector super soft and that seemed to help. I still think it's under-steering too much so I'm going to put softer springs on the front and see where that gets us. That Desert Gator is pretty stable! Even if he lands sideways it straightens right back out.

[Crash Cramer]

MMMM, landing sideways, now let's get some photos of that jump!!!!

[Wooders28]

Tried to get some shots today,not quite the 3 wheels in air I was after!!
