I got air over the Corkscrew my first few laps around Laguna Seca ...I think
I ended up in Salinas after a really bad one<vbg>.

What tracks allow cars to become airborne? I have noticed that
Zandvoort is in the GPL video... with cars jumping a crest.

But I can't get my Honda airborne :( (but I don't know the track very
well)

Dont know about Zandvort cause I dont like that track but you can get
( very ) airborne at Nrburgring.
( And I often get airborne at Snetterton due to those hay-things right next
to the road ;p )

go flying into the turn after the esses at full speed and lose control and BAM
your in the haybail and over the wall. =)

You sure you're not confusing this with the Flugplatz at the Nurburgring?

It's also possible to get 4-off at the end of the back straight at
Mosport....but be prepared to collect the fence if you do! :-)

things"!!) :-)

Not that I would ever try such a childish stunt, but go to Roen, come
out of the last turn at full speed and as your passing the pits ver
right and launch up the grass embankment, try to miss the first trees.
As mentioned, the biggest realistic air in gpl is at the Nurburgring.

... and in the same enterprising spirit, you certainly can catch a lot of
air at Zandvoort - if you go off the track, as I usually have the ill
fortune to do. I just cant get to grips with the damn thing.....

Well, I'll tell you you're problem "Speedy Fast".

You'll never get a Honda airborne... they weigh like, 8000 pounds dry,
without tires. ;-)

Dents.

PS. If you try hard enough, you can get air at Mosport too... at the end
of the straight.

In O-ring I once went wide between Dr. Tiroch Kurve and the Bosh Kurve,
and I become to a wild flight, the car went higher and higher, and
then also the program crashed... "illegal operation". I would have liked
to see the replay, but propably the car went so high that it came out
of the world og GPL... :-)

Just get ahead of McLaren or Surtees, then, they'll make sure you get plenty
of air. Don't plan on finishing the race though
