In a new MINI? No, the one pictured drove home to Sydney. I am told you should turn DSC off when airborn, as the computer will try to lock the wheels when off the ground!! :shock:
If your interested to read about it, follow this Targa thread for more pics and background.

Oh!!!,,,,& this is how we travelled from Brisbane to Tassie & back,,,cool or what!!! :-)

Image

This old Combie Ute took us all the way down there, followed the rally around the whole Is & then took us back to Brisbane again, mind you , she`d allready been a sand buggy doin big air jumps in the sand dunes at Moreton Is for years & years, & has allready carried our race minis to all the race tracks for about 15 years prior, so we did have a fair bit of confidence in the old girl,,,put out to pastures now tho :-(
