Who has jumped there Evo?
Just wanted to make a thread to see how many people have actually jumped their Evo (all 4 tires off the ground). I actually got the pleasure of doing this today while taking a sunday drive with my friend.
This was not intentional at all. We were driving on some backs roads (kind of county) where we always go because there are very sharp corners and inclines/declines through the woods, great roads for the Evo. Well anyway we came to a straight away so I got on in through 3rd shifted to 4th while approching a small to medium hill, which you could see past, there were no blind spots.
By this time we were going about 90+mph coming towards this hill and vrrooooommmmmm(free reving engine) all 4 tires off the ground and we were in flight! OMG I was thinking in my head while sailing through the air. Those 5sec seemed forever! Luckily the car landed on all 4's but started getting loose back and forth a little but I saved it and we drove away screaming in excitement and fear! haha. That was the most adrenaline rushed experience i've ever had.
By no means am I promoting this. It was an nonintentional. If anyone else has any stories please share.....

I think I hold the record for the EVO 9 so far. I kinda did it on accident but I was in the air with all 4 tires off the ground for an amazing 31 FEET!!!, It was really fun though. Here is the link....https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=187003

I did once. I was driving my local back roads. I carriered to much speed over a small bridge and got some air. I did dent the bottom of the intercooler. Only because it is larger, however it felt under control and smooth while in the air. But i won't recomend to try to do this. lol

Jumping? Fine i believe that you were dumb enough to do that... But 5 seconds even 3 seconds I call BS. Maybe 1-2 seconds, and thats what rally cars do.
