just figure out the angle of the ramp and you can follow the directions and convert it here http://www.therangerstation.com/tech...alculators.htm

lets say you find a 23° ramp to drive up and you follow the directions scoring a 500, well on a traditional 20° ramp that would translate to around 575 maybe even a little more in real life

Ran the teraflex all jeep show at miller motor sports park. Which was an AWESOME event, & venue! I held the best flex on the RTI ramp out of the entire full size jeep class with a 645 score!!! Even better than the long arm MJs, ZJs, & XJs that flexed out on it... still running short arms, factory uppers, & RE balistic style lowers (thats has very little to do with its all around flex though!)

Yup, I went blind. Hey that is a great run up the ramp and the LCA's look to be functioning fine. Now get that purple Dino and the riders on the ramp for a score.
