Any way I can get an actual copy of that Ant? I would really like to have it on my HD. Maybe you could upload it to my photobucket pro account.

Later this summer we will have to do some shakedown up in babbitt and hit a real jump on film. Railroad tracks are cool and all, but I have gotten that much air in a lowered WRX, we can do so much better. Ok, I'm exagerating a little, but we will beat Ken blocks record. LOL

That's because it is, and Ian's facial hair makes it that much better. You need to grow the beard out again, lol.

The suspension is custom. I built it around a set of inverted monotube bilstien dampers. I modified the stock strut tubes to accept the new dampers while also statically raising the ride height. Then I paired them with slightly stiffer and taller springs, on coilover sleeves. I used Tein camber plates on top to add more adjustability.

I like being dirty. :gapteeth:

What was the mph? Reminds me of getting airborne in my sohc in my horse pasture. Hit going about 50ish. Hood was off, battery came flying out of the tray then got snatched back down, luckily the cables were tight. My friend in the backseat thought he didn't need a seatbelt, he had a h3ll of a headache lol. Didn't have the same distance as you but I think I may of had a more vertical. Keep it up :)
What's your cars name? That one was AKA "The Lawnmower" due to exhaust and labeling stickers from a-zone

50ish on the first pass, then around 70 on the second. Next year I will hit it faster, or maybe we can just set up a real jump somewhere.

It doesnt have a name quite yet. I will choose one soon.
