From most of the videos that I have seen of this type of driving when they get to the top they jump the car , land , bottem out and burst all the tyres of the rims .

Makes for good video entertainment!

Ok i just had some translation done on the Video.
This is taken from TV show in Sweden ( channel 5 ) that does road tests on diff things.

The Yellow Spider runs Volvo portal axles, Pasat engine and a Golf gearbox.
Also has 2 tyres per rim ( inner and outer)
