Mr Terminator Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 The way you were treated Dan was nothing short of appauling for a supposedly professional TV show... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyLad Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) Can't believe they cancelled on me for that pathetic excuse for jumping lol Must admit, I didn't think 15m was that much of a challenge. Pretty sure Chris52 jumps his buggies further than that from the little Argos ramps Edited December 16, 2008 by HappyLad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Me, Chris and the rest of the TM guys have done much bigger jumps than that at a normal event. I was planning to hit the ramp at at least 80 lol. Plus the ramp needed a slight bit of curve to it. But at least we can get our names into the record books rather than the presenters who did naff all to deserve it. from what i saw they had no respect for the work that had gone into the rc's they were using Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest i thought all things considered they did a fair job, they could have made us all look a lot worse. chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antnee Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Chris, bet you were annoyed that they called your passat a lorry!! Mark, I thought you said you did some technical speech for them or something? I think it was unfair that the schuey lads got quite a bit of coverage where as the un-biased TM got very little. Looked like you had a good time though, wish I had went now (I think it was during halfterm) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midi-mania Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 you wouldn't need a Ferrari, an old ford escort rs turbo could easily beat the speed they got to, and do it in style not to mention it costing alot less than chris's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Still, they did a lot better at presenting this than what Fifth Gear did... who completely belittled R/C. I'm glad I didn't have any involvement with that. *Hides* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
