Well if you hit any ramp fast enough, it will do that and having foam works well too

I wish they'd have shown what was said before that run.. "Yeah, you can hit that twice as fast as last time..." It's paraphrased, but I remember it being very close to the exact dialogue.

Simple physics there.

I can't remember exactly where it happened but I think it was when streetbike tommy did the wheelie and locked the motor up. Before he goes they pound what I think was an XXS helmet on an XXL head and the helmet looked like it was used in the 1970s for shooting people out of cannons. I just remember Travis saying "What's the worst that can happen? You have a helmet on". Greatest line ever said.
