Can cars get airborne?

Hello, as the tittle says , do or will cars get airborne in the future?
(Sorry if there is any grammar mistake, im from Spain!! )

 

???
Obviously if you give em a ramp or a drop, they will get airborne. Otherwise I have no idea what the bloody hell you are on about as cars don't just magically take off and fly

 

Well some cars depending from their aerodinamic do get airborne quite easily with a simple touch with an object or other car which doesnt happen in this game, so thats what im more about.
Its actually quite difficult to get them off the ground unless as you said you use a ramp or so.

 

No car tends to do that at all, not a clue where on earth you got that from. Certainly not the sort of vehicles we have in game so far.

 

Do you mean like the LeMans cars?

 

Well thats an exaple, i dont really know about how or why it happens but it just looks like in the game gravity force was to strong to lift them up.

 

The lemans race cars are lightweight and have lots of surface area. This means if they go too fast at a certain angle the air resistance can cause them to shoot right up.

The cars in game have reallistic weight and shape, so they won't just do 5 flips in the air from nothing like in a burnout game.

 

Cars will only do that if a large amount of air resistance builds up underneath the car, causing it to lift. It's a similar principle to an airplane wing.

Almost all cars either don't go fast enough for this to happen, or for ones that do (namely race cars or super cars), have sufficient aerodynamics and downforce to stop the car from lifting. In that video though, I believe the car hit some sort of bump, or there was a crest in which the front started to lift. Naturally, the air that went under the front lifted the car, and caused it to behave like a wing.

The Lamborghini Muira did suffer from front end lift, apparently the steering became noticeably lighter at high speeds because of this. Other than that, most cars are designed in such a way as to avoid this from happening. Taking off in a car is not a good look after all...

 

Well then I guess we should try with faster and lighter cars, and maybe some bump haha.
Thanks!

 

Haha thats sweet!
How did you get it to that speed?

If you could put some gaudy wing on the Grand Marshal like NASCAR'S COT would it lift off at 180MPH?

So, mission acomplished, but its still doesnt flip up into the air as i expected, it just stays with the 2 back wheels until I reach about 850 km/h then the back wheels fly off and i crash so its like the air doesnt affet it in that way, but still its quite fun to do this haha

 

That would do the exact opposite. Those wings create down force not lift.

Or it doesn't have the aerodynamic properties to flip, the game simulates the aerodynamics just fine... If it doesn't flip, its because it won't flip not because of the game.

 

I didn't mean going forwards.

Touche!
hahahaha

In this case the wing actually help me to get some lift or at least it smeed like it... might it be because its doing the down force in the back so it helps it to lift in the front bit?
But still i really doubt that a car at 800 km/h lifting so much wouldnt get enough air resistance under it to flip over.
I dont know... could be possible but i just find it strange
