On Mythbusters they couldn't get it done. :-)))
That 2CV is a disaster on wheels.
An aerodynamical mishap with matching suspension.
This car is so easy to flip over....just take a hard corner and watch as
the opposite rear wheel comes off the ground. Those French... ;-)
Those guys on Top Gear are crazy.
They launched a Mini off of the Lillehammer skijump (after attaching
rockets to it!), Richard raced a bobsleigh down the bobtrack while James
raced down in a ralleycar and the Stig "drove" a ski-doo down the skijump.
Never a dull moment with these chaps. :-)

| Mythbusters was using a much heaver vehicle and only one engine if I recall.
They could not get permission from authorities to try it with a real
airplane. I enjoy watching that show. The dead pig in the car was by far
the most gross.

They must not have been using Firestone SUV tires.
