Altitude record with Nissan

Some laps are good, some are bad, some are ugly, this is from one of the more ugly ones....

One would think you should need a chassis refresher after that but nooooo, the car gets up and keeps going.

As hard as I try, I can't put it on its roof......makes for good photos though...

Erm, lack of downforce, perhaps? Unless of course, you purposely did that... Interesting shot, nonetheless.

Welcome to GTPlanet, BTW!

It was on purpose at Trial Mountain. The idea was to get a photo of just the tip of the rear wing touching the ground.....tougher than it looks.

Just found this forum today, people have been real helpful so far....thanks.

At Trial Mountain, the last corner - going counter clockwise - has a "ramp' that is the side of the hill. Flat out in fifth and nail it, hang on, and watch replay. If you go good enough, you can smack the bridge...Dukes of Hazzard kind of stuff...

That is the best launching pad I have found so far. There might be a good one at Seattle, but probably not as good as Trial Mountain....

Here is the 'landing', same incident

Just ramming into the corner at Test Course at 240mph is usually enough to launch ya 👍
