In 2001, you might remember the infernal see-saw in the middle of the field. We were on this thing once, ahead of a partner. We were rushing to get over it (it was our best match of the year, with Wildstang at Epcot), but the partner behind us made the see-saw tip over more slowly. Instead of gently hitting the ground with the thing fully transitioned, we drove off the front with the saw's lip a good number of inches still in the air. We subsequently landed very hard and cracked our front frame, necessitating a lengthy pit repair.
Transitioning over the bump at a high rate of speed successfully simulates that 2001 situation. Our first system test isn't the place to unleash a turbo boost.
