For some reason VW busses/pickups were great for jumping. Sunset Beach used to have two parallel street seperated by a railroad track. When they removed the tracks, we would jump our crewcab VW fron one street to the other. There was a lot of sand and small dunes between the two streets, so you had to plan the jump so you wouldn't get stuck.
Now there's a green belt there---nice video Aaron

we have a road around here that if you are going over 35 thru the turn you jump. its also a 90 degree bend with another "wimp out" driveway on it, so the challenge is to see how fast you can go aroud the turn without crashing. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) the witnessed speed record so far is 65 in a mk3 gti, tho he claims that he's put a crx into it @70 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/happy11.gif)

i could probably grab one of the corner. no chance of seeing a video of a car going through tho, too many cops around the school these days, and its right near there, and too scary going thru with sand (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/icon8.gif)
