Re: Will the car make it in?

I'd say you could do it. My vehicle for it? Some jeep. Lots of ground clearance, not too wide. But, if you screw up... well, that jeep will not be in as good shape as, say, a Corvette. Approach at about 7 mph faster and switch to fwd mode (I assume Jeeps can, I don't know) when the ramp is hit, and drop the rpms. The second the rear wheels are on, brake. It might work. (esp. with aftermarket brakes)
