Having moved a tire of that size before I just knew something bad was going to happen. I also wouldn't be standing down there at the end of the jump. :shock:

I would love to see it redone with better construction on the last tire. Great stuff though.

That is a good one! Tire warmers are out for Formula One in 2015.

I would still love to see the biggest tire with a rebuilt ramp. See how far it goes.

Oldie but a goodie. Definitely would have loved to see the ramp hold together for the last tire. And I'm not sure what kind or truck tire that was. But I would like to see a semi steer tire go down the ramp too. It looks like that truck tire might have done a little damage to the ramp too.

I saw a wheel and tire come off a pro2 short course truck that was going appx 70mph. It bounced and rolled about 500yds before slamming into the drivers door of a newer chevy street truck that was used by the track crew. It totally destroyed the truck. The drivers seat was pushed to where the passenger seat was. It was a damn good thing no one was in the trk at the time.
