    Can't do this static!









    Oh. Wait

    I just wanted a reason to post that picture, But you stop caring after awhile that your shit drags. It becomes a normal thing to floor it at entrance ramps.

      So, do you some of you guys really floor it over bumps/entrance ramps?

        How the hell else are we supposed to get over shit? Going slow just gets you stuck.

          if you even tap the brakes the nose will dip and make shit worse, if you go slow you will get stuck.

            Going over bridges and shit. I would throw it in 4th.... right before the dips/bumps MAT the throttle and then immediately let off. I swear it makes it smoother. lol

              Because in comparison our speedbumps would be called mountains..

                  Depends on the bump really.. but i rather go slow... there's no way I wanna rip my oilpan open... toooo expensive to get that mess cleaned hahaha

                  @ iloow
                  Well... those after 2min are more extreme than what they look on the video... especially the one at 2:39 and the last one look very flat on the video while they are as high as a curb, well the last one is even higher.

                  I know there are worse ones... been to an undergorund parking in Stockholm, Slussen where they had one large Speedbump right after the ramp of the exit, which went uphill... had 5 people in the car and I just pulled the whole underbody over the bump with the rearwheels up in the air... so yeah... there sure are worse speedbumps than the ones in the video.

                  lol... I've never seen any speedbump like these in Holland... in Holland it#s hard to find one where I scrape, guess so far I found one, while i drove over 50+.

                      You should try driving in Enschede (Holland) . Most of the older speedbumps (plateau's) are about a foot and a half high with about 45 degree ramp angle.
                      A lot of the newer ones are just meant to rip your oilpan of they're not wide enough to drive over. Like these:

                        So you're saying that next time I see a speed bump, or an uneven part in the road the best idea is to go faster? lol, I'm gonna stick with driving like I'm in a school zone.

                          well we have these it drops 2,4 inches if you drive just a small bit over the speed limit, it will literally rip pieces off your car! no problem if you dont speed over it but quite a big problem if you go 0.5mph over the speed limit :S
                          -.-

                            and you need low bag pressure to be low.
                            but if done right you roll low with high pressure. and lay out on low/no pressure, and get a very slight lift (if any) with really high pressure. i had a set up all spec'd out to do this but id rather stay static. a lot bag ppl dont do this because apparently lift is cool to some people

                            really though I want to do a tiny bag set up over my springs. roll static and lift 1-2" to get on lifts, go to bk, and make life better

                              Going to BK is definitely important and should be a major contributing factor to your ride height choices.

                                Well, if you want to get fat, having to walk to BK would be kinda contraproductive, no?
