If he was balancing on two wheels like that his tires would be folded over like crazy. I think it's :zbsflag:

Nice chop though.

I say it's a chop because the antenna, isn't bent over or waving in one direction or the other.... cause if the car was moving like that, it should be wiggiling to one side or the other..... though there is more wheel gap on those wheels in the air... so it's hard to say... I really don't know anymore...

Have you guys never watched stunt shows? This is a possible stunt, the car is built for it... But it is possible that its just a photoshopped image. But I'm pretty sure its real. The ramp is probably just out of frame thats all.

If its chopped how come you can see underneath the car, if it was chopped you would have an image of a car titled where you couldn’t see the bottom.

Its not a chop, Nationally in the last 5 or 6 years there have been about 6 rollovers at national SCCA SOLO 2 events in the stock classes. Im pretty shure it happens to the G stock and H Stock cars.

Yes, Warm sticky tires+stock suspension can+High center of gravity can = roll over.

It happens, One guy rolled a car at one of our summer series Races. It was an OKA, and the thing looks like its going to tip over just standing still, let alone racing around an autocross track.
