Today my friend dylan_95_09 came up with an idea involving a PDI Racing Kart 100; is it possible to flip it if you jump high enough and at the worst angle?

Track used: Mark17's Eif
Attempt 1: Unsuccessful, got it tipped a little, but not enough.:indiff:
Attempt 2: Almost, got it on it's side bumper, but tipped back onto it's wheels.:ouch:
Attempt 3: Unsuccessful, got rear ended by an AI Kart and flew high in the air, however completing a 720 degree spin.:dopey:
Attempt 4: Unsuccessful, the Kart just bounced along the ground spinning more and more with each bounce.:grumpy:

Has anybody successfully flipped a PDI Racing Kart 100? And if so, could you post a picture or two? Thanks!💡
 
Doubt it's possible, PD wouldn't want to show the driver hitting the track (or probably going through it.. cars going through guard rails as well). Did you try at Trial Mountain yet? Or a coursemaker track with a jump.
 
I think i tried it and it got to 90* before just falling back on the wheels. Not saying it's not possible, just that i failed miserably
 
The track I tried it on has a massive jump. I've rolled a F2007, 2J, and Toyota 7, but not the Kart. My poor guy's been in more head crushing accidents than ever before. I'll try Trial Mountain next time.
 
I managed to flip my kart at Cape Ring Outside. I clipped the grass in one of the sweeping S-curves and hit the rumble strips backwards. The camera kind of stopped when the kart flew through the air and faded to black. I got reset onto the track and went on my merry way. I also won the Rollover Trophy for that. Unfortunately, I do not have a picture.
 
If you can't do it at Trial Mountain there's a really good chance you just can't do it. Report back to us, could be worth a laugh.
 
I've done it in the last karting event in the 2nd lap, then I went on to get the human stopwatch trophy and win the event from the first time.

I clipped one of the corners too rough and too fast and it just flipped. Like that other guy said, try the trial mountain circuit. Right before the finish line there's this bump I always try to clip hard to flip on purpose.
 
I've seen it happen to a computer driver on the special events (Autumn Ring Mini I think), he rolled around on his helmet a bit before the kart flip back tot he correct position, but the kart did flip
 
I'll have a crack at it tomorrow and upload a video 👍. If i cant get the desired effect, i'll ram an AI guy onto the trial mountain hill and see if that gives me what we all want to see...
