emcon5,
There are some amazing maps to explore in that game. I love running my 73 RS on "Autobahn" and when I get to the toll gate, I aim for the dip in the road, so that you get a good jump, turn hard left and use the handbrake and fly through the screeching tollgate,
sideways AND airborne!!
Another favourite was on the back section of "Alps", where the roads are clear of snow... Just near the finish line, I usually wind up my 996 Turbo (which is amazingly fast) and aim for a large piece of embankment, launching the car into orbit! Usually you can cross the finish line at approximately 35,000ft.
