Work your way back across the obstacle. Find and obtain another ball. Again go across the obstacle, and shoot again.

Unless the stars align perfectly, I doubt this would be possible in the given time even with a very fast chassis.
I wouldn't eliminate the possibility, we've seen some pretty crazy autos before, and I wouldn't be surprised to see someone show up with something insane by champs. It'll be especially hard with the terrain, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.
