Has anyone ever jumped over a car in Seattle?

[Slick Rick]

That sounds pretty cool, ill have a go. I think its best not to use a way faster car because then its possible to hit him from the back as you try to pick up speed.

If anyones done it, i would love to see some pictures 👍

Has anyone thought of jumping over the lowest car they can find?

I mean, Honda Civics are not exactly low, to say the least.

The Bentley is pretty low...but you can't run it on Cathedral Rocks...rally, no?

What's the lowest rally-able car in the game? It might possible...

I tried jumping the Ford GT at Seattle. That's pretty low and I had more than enough speed to clear it.

No luck.

Ya can't jump cars, but you can still make some interesting photo's.

I allready posted that in "oh crap moments" topic...

************************************
http://users.volja.net/gturismo88/IMG0284.JPG - I drive RS200 Rally Car, fully tuned, up the Seattle jumps, going faster than that Ford GT beside me, but he cut me off ...

result - one moment from three angles:

"It's a bird!"
"No it's a plane!"
"No it's a Ford RS200 Rally Car!?!"

And conclusion - landed on wheels and full throttle (the whole experience was so disorientating, that I didn't know where I was going for a few seconds, but I kept the foot down on throttle pedal), and overtook all of 'em.

Coming down the back straight ...


... we come to a jump ...


... which is smaller for some, but for the others ...


... it's bigger ...


... and longer ...


... without knowing where exactly will you end.

I have done this by accident as someone suggested at Cathedral Rocks II. I've actually got it saved as a replay, as I was so astounded . I'll try to capture it to a video file if anyone is interested?

Go ahead I want to see if this 'myth' is true or not

 

[HondaRacer]

The spectators on the roof look quite confused by what they're witnessing.

Maybe we should send a request to Myth Busters on Discovery Channel...

 

[Sjenk]

yeah, that's why I said 'myth' in the first place

 

[Shugo(fox)]

sounds like a myth

Here is my video clip:

[Moby]

Did anyone see the clip? I'd like to delete it if possible to save webspace....

 

[Sjenk]

Ah you were from this thread. I pm'd you that didn't requested a video, but I did of course I just forgot about this thread.

Well, the problem is that it's a .mov file and I don't have quicktime to play it (I don't want to download quicktime either, since I had lots of problems with it before )

Is it possible to make it a avi/mpg/wmv file? I hope you will

 

[Moby]

I've managed to convert it to an .avi, but it's a bit dark and the file is twice the size (at 5MB)! However I've upload it to:

That video never shows you jumping over a car, you come from the left hand side about 2 car widths. And not once did you land or go near the other car. At the top of that it looks like you hit that barrier though.

 

[Sjenk]

Yep, I agree with eastley, if you look at the shadows they never reach each other, so the myth still stands

 

[crimson_menace]

Agreed. No jump.....

 

[Moby]

Thanks - I must admit that I wasn't sure myself. It's just that it seems almost too narrow to have gone down the side.

 

[HiyakuShiro]

It can't be done period ive tryed with a R390 gt1 1062hp and a cappuccino it can not be done
