jdshark000 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 After seeing that back view and how much room there is on the left side, I have a feeling obstacles will be added there between racing and freestyle as well. It seems like the track crew is using the two day format really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxdman Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 After a second look, unless they add more dirt to the back of the semi-trailer back flip ramps, there is no way they will give the kick needed for a back flip. I can only with they are meant to be driven thru.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Dough Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 What would be really cool is if Joe Sylvester were to clear the quintuple jump and actually break his own record IN competition (assuming the obstacle is longer than the record distance). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavySonicShell Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I doubt it's that long, but even if it is that long, i still don't think he'd have enough run-up room to clear it. that'd be cool though >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dough Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Let's do the math.... If the previous record was 237.5 feet, that makes it 79.1 yards. Judging by the picture, these appear to be the dimensions (lengthwise) of the jump. Going off of the length of the football field, the obstacle is roughly 65 yards (195 feet) long. So in order to clear the obstacle, Joe Sylvester would need to jump at least 195 feet. However, there's still quite a bit of room between the end of the obstacle and the backflip ramp. Appearing to be an additional 20 yards. This would total up to be 85 yards. Or 255 feet. Assuming that Joe can somehow gain the speed to clear the obstacle (nitrous?), he would still have to fly at least 43 more feet in order to beat the record, before flying into the backflip ramp and breaking another world record by performing a triple backflip. If my math is right and there's enough space available for speed, Joe Sylvester has a good chance this year to make it onto the front of the World Finals XV DVD. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steiale Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 So we are destroying Disney World History? Sad. Every jump looks so square. Cross Threads would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavySonicShell Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 As much as I hate to see the monorail go, I will say that they'd otherwise be sitting in a junk yard, those models are all being replaced with newer ones soon (AFAIK could be wrong), so I guess we can look at it as one last time for the old monorail to give people joy. EDIT: I researched this. That's a Mk. IV Disney World Monorail, that when retired was bought for use by the city of Las Vegas. After years of use, Las Vegas started to use newer monorails an left the two Disney ones they own out in the elements for a few years. Monster jam seems to have bought this one as one last hurrah for it. seems like it had a great life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cousin Rob Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 i hope the containers are smash-able and not like last year cause the backflips sucked (madusa lol) scotts backflip had to be the greatest backflip I have ever seen...and meents didn't have air in both front tires and not enough speed either to do it...they need to just have a regular dirt obstacle backflip like the POD shows...other then that...that wall looks like the damn fences from the sandlot movies...and they look like they will fall over vaaaaaaary easily...hope Pablo doesn't go hit em and park it like he did 10 years ago hahhaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
