It's a bomb mate!
What you have to do is go flat out, hit a ramp,get your car upside down, then knock it off with the jib on a crane!

I've seen Jason Statham do it on his Audi, so it's definitely possible

what 1 do you recken is best to try it on :P





these are the biggest ramps i can think off may need to up it by 34degree's to get the air "/



sorry for the million of pics! just dont want to pick the wrong machine to hit and end up not hitting the bomb!

i know! i think i will take my bumper off so theres nothing going to impact the ramp and make me loose momentum!

i think the only thing ill be paying for is my p45 haha but im sure i can wiggle my way out of it by saying there was a bomb under the car and had to knock it off using one of the machines :P
