Hello,
I am attempting to make a Super Car-ish Grasshopper (The thing from Twisted
Metal, not the insect). I really want it to be functionable. I have already

remote controlled car out on the market a while ago, and it jumped. Does
anyone know how that thing jumped? Or, does anyone have suggestions? Thanks,
