Yeah... Nat found some good stuff for us. The one thing we did note though about the Mini and several other drivers going over those ramps was that they all let off the throttle while in the air. BAD MOVE!!! You always stay on the throttle in the air so when you land the truck goes into a natural wheel stand and then you let out of the throttle to plant the front end back onto the ground. In the Dukes of Hazard series and movie, they actually added bags of concrete to the trunk of the General Lee to keep it from nosing over on the landings.
