- excellent! — Stoopid_Fish_Racing
- take a booster, a ramp, and an inclined foam track and let the fun begin — dr_dodge

- Josh Paufler from Rust Belt Racing did something similar on the 4th of July one year (or was it New Year's...?) He laid down a track from the peak of his roof to the edge, curving up into a jump ramp with a LONG drop to the ground. The victim (after popular vote) was the Duck'n'Roll car. It sped down the track, launched from the ramp, and after a few good rolls, actually managed to land upright on its wheels again. — SpyDude
Here is a cool hill climb/road race in Pennsylvania -- The Giants Dispair Hilclimb
FYI, testing stuff

I think the booster (or a rebuild/upgraded old one)
(have 2 old dead ones slated for 22k rpm 12vdc motor upgrades
and multi boost levels)
They would send cars up a "reverse sawtooth" track, prob pretty far
inclined raceway (w/ agreget) up pretty good,
a jump into the hill, and....up, ur almost up, and down ya go
dr
and the "reverse sawtooth" would keep them from rollin' back down
Why are the engines blowing up?
