  1. I had never seen the wheels show before I came Canada.
    While the driver started from the ramp, these audiences immediately began shoting.
    By the time it took off, the car was very fast.

  2. As soon as the driver heard "one", he took off from the ramp. Before he landed on the lane several hundreds miles away, he had accelerated to the speed limit. While the car was flying in the air, the excited claim could be heard all the time. All audiences had been deeply impressed by the time the car stopped.

  3. As soon as the car jumped up from the ramp, people screamed loudly. Before the car started. it was silent. While the car was jumping up it looked like a air plane.

  4. It is totally awesome! When I watched the video, I got a bit of scared. While he was going down on the ramp, we heard the engine was accelerated. He took off and the car hurtled through air. And the car was perfectly landed to the other side.
