Ok so I drive this drive to my girlfriends house everyday and I go through a series of hills. Kinda like this /\/\/ (but rounder). Anyways, today I felt like driving fast because I was pissed at somthing (plz, no comments on how stupid this was). So I florred it going up the first hill then went down it and on the middle one it has a kind of ubrupt tip of the hill where it just kinda goes flat, this is where the supra leaves the ground. I don't fly very high but I sure do fly with all wheels in the air!!! I land and just keep goin. Thats about it, but I just thought I would share it :)

Any other people done anything like this with their supra?

(hehe I might do it again somtime later and have my friend film it, its a backroad by the way)

I've done this before, but not in a Supe. I had a Ford Sierra XR4x4 at the time, big heavy 5-door hatchback with AWD and a 2.8 V6. I remember caning upto it at about 110mph and my friend who was in the passenger seat shouted 'blind summit!', grabbing onto the loud handle. Was quite a nice takeoff, although the suspension probably wasn't too happy!

As far as the supe goes, i have gone fast enough down a single track road (tarmacced though) so the front end went light after coming over the crest of the hill....scared me enough to not want to do it again :biglaugh:

I've done it a few times in an 89 Honda Prelude Si and a 77 Toyota Hilux. I have not progressed up the redneck chain far enough to jump a Supra though..lol.....If I do though I'll be sure and paint it Orange with a Confederate Flag on the roof and do it "Dukes of Hazzard" style:)

My buddy and I were flying down a dirt road in our Subaru's. (95 legacy wagon and 92 legacy wagon)
We were going about 65-70mph when in an instant the road dropped off. We had driven the road plenty of times before, but recent construction made them alter the road slightly where it went up slightly, and dropped off abruptly for about 50' at about a 20* angle.
talk about scared shitless... I measured out about 15' of air, judging from the marks my oil pan made when I landed :icon_razz
we went back and did it again though. lol

Ive been airborn twice but not in a Supra. It was in a jeep grand cherokee. I wasn't driving, but my friend was and we were checking out a construction site. He did a lot of offroading at the time, so we were messin around. We see a ridge and sure enough, he decided to jump it. We got a 4ft of air. I know because I got out and watched him do it a second time. lol
