3 wide in the high banking!
Talladega meets Planet Zod!! Okay, maybe not 3 wide but the elevated banking is gonna be the shizzle. Here's the beginnings of the NASCAR SHORE at PZ, designed from the sick and demented inner thoughts of fellow Stanleyite, Charlie Daniels.

A little bit closer to built!
yeah the drop in his picture is definately not any bigger than it looks. ive seen it up close and that picture is making it look bigger than it is more than smaller than it is.bizutch said:If your girlfriend's not buyin' that line, I'm not either....
Well theres been many pics of that jump put up here but they are the first of me hitting it on my new jump. But we finally rebuilt the jump a couple days ago so its now hittable.
Jason, that is the drop on the right of the roll-in at legend park. It actually is pretty big, atleast by my standards. I guess not yours.
Did you do anywork on the step-down, or was it still ridable. I heard that it was in bad condition.

wow Zod, you're cool. I wanna ride at your place.
Yeah i know where it is. But yeah we had to do alot of work to it. Added like 3 inches to the lip and like 4-5 inches to the whole right side of the jump. IT was in really ****ty shape. It's rockin now though. I need to find somewhere to make something bigger cause that ones getting to be kinda boring and small feeling now.haromtnbiker said:

We're a constant "work in progress" park but you're welcome to swing by anytime you're in the area.

I think that when I get my bike back from the shop (new fork being installed) I am gonna hit the step-down. I dont want to land to flat though.
When are you gonna get it back. ill probly head out to regency tomorow. Also what fork are you gettin put on there. But the stepdown is really easy. all you gotta do is get the speed down right. Landing flat isnt that bad. I have a bad habit of going way to fast and landing it to flat quite a bit. It's alot better how we have it built now. It launches you into the air more now so you have a bigger margin of how fast you can go before you over shoot it.
zod...what are you going to put on top of the berm...just plywood or something?
Nah, plywood wouldn't last long outside, we'll use spool slats like the ones in the forefront of this picture
Here is a picture of the far right drop at Legend park in clayton.
Me on the far right hand drop at Legend:

The nascar turn has finally been elevated and I started planking it last night......
aaahh...ahhhh...damnit! Gonna have to towel off the monitor...where's the Windex?
Thanks fellas......we should have it finished by the weekend if we get some time to work on it in the afternoon after quittin' time. I'll post pics of the final product and maybe a vid!
dude, you are so stealthy. I never see you in "online" status. Must just swoop in and haul azz out, like a turkey buzzard.zod said:
That was almost poetic...motomike said:
more finished.....sorry for the crappy pic quality, it was dark
I saw my first ever turkey buzzard road kill. It was in a blind curve in Mills River. this one wasn't haulin ass..it was flatmotomike said:
And this is where in NC?
Got to hand it to Zod , That berm does look good.
We finished it up enough today to finally get to ride it....here is a shot and 2 vids I took of Mr.Tiles hitting it. Basically it's as fast as you feel like going, you're gonna stick!

The Tower hasn't been extended into a loop yet. Collecting material at the moment. We're riding the portion that is here. It's been reworked a few times since you were here. Here's a thumbnail of what the hip looks like now.
Here's some pics of the new stuff at Tar I cribbed from TMTB. Photo credits go to Hound and TM.
