We were racing at this track http://www.rcracephotos.com/special/westcoast3.html
Directly to the left is the baby sized table top which is hard for us to not over clear. They don't want to make it any bigger, because a lot of the 1/10th buggies and 2wd trucks already struggle to clear it. When mxracer (Marty) was using 6s at the end of the night he was jumping to about in line with the end of that black railing. It's hard to tell from the picture, but it's a decent amount of air from the short run up.
It's meant to be a 1/10th track, which is why there was some arguments about rules on Friday night, and probably be some more in the next couple of weeks. Some track committee members don't care that their called 1/8th truggies, just as long as they can fit into specific sized box made for when we only raced e-maxx's. One of the committee members doesn't like that their called 1/8th's. They say they damage the track, but when driven properly the truggies are easier on the track than the maxx's were (we only have one monster truck class).
