            Just make sure you are aimed dead straight, and you give the car NO steering input while in air.

            If you take off or land without being straight, you will lose control, and there will not be a damned thing you can do about it.

              i completely agree, i get off the ground, and the steering wheel stays pegged. It was way smooth. thats one of my biggest fears, getting the wheels all sideways.

                I unintentionally did that charging down a mountain road last summer with an AMG ML55 on my ass. Blew both front shocks on impact. :x

                        It's going to be interesting to watch the back and forth battle of "that's cool" and "you're an idiot" replies in this thread.

                            yea, and their car flipped... and im guessing from seeing the wreckage, everyone inside died.
