Lenard Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 i don't know, so school me, how do they score you on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88mjmanche Posted October 24, 2009 Author Share Posted October 24, 2009 First the ramp. In most cases the ramp is on a 20 degree angle. Some events measure the extremely flexible vehicles with a ramp of greater angle like the 23 degree ramp. The vehicle attempts to climb the ramp as high as possible without lifting a wheel off the ground. The distance the vehicle can travel up the ramp without losing contact with the ground is measured from the leading edge of the ramp to the center of the hub on the ramp. That number is then divided by the vehicles wheelbase (the distance between the vehicles centerline of the front axle and the centerline of the rear axle) and then multiplied by 1000 to calculate the average. For instance, if a vehicle with a wheelbase of 94 inches travels 62 inches up the 20 degree ramp then the RTI would be calculated as: 62" divided by 94" x 1000 resulting in a score of 659. This method of multiplying by the vehicles wheelbase allows one vehicle to compete with another vehicle like a CJ-5 to an F-250 Crew Cab on the same ramp test this site is very accurate http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_li ... lators.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89eliminator Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 nice flex. RTI ramps are fun especially that point where a tire starts to lift. i never scored mine so i really have no idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComancheKid45 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Alright I'm resurrecting an old topic but I got my truck on an RTI ramp for the 1st time yesterday and scored a 631. I was pretty happy with that considering I'm only on maybe 2" of lift and 31s :clapping: I never knew excatly how they scored them but this topic helped :typing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1990 Pioneer 4x4 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I'd probably break something on the rti ramp... That layer of mud is a good look, but what's up with that clean, lime green shock boot? :shake: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW86 Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 forget about the lime green shock boot. how about the tool box used as a tail gate lol still a cool truck though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88mjmanche Posted July 21, 2010 Author Share Posted July 21, 2010 yea the shock boots were put on about 3 hours prior to the event and the tool box tailgate was a last minute thing worked good though :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
