Bridge instakill

Hi folks!

there's a pretty deadly combination in some race tracks - jump ramps and low-hanging bridges. Be very careful when you're racing there, because hitting a bridge is an instakill, unlike hitting sides of the track or pretty much any other obstacle head-on.

You can hit an oncoming car at 400 km/h, but it'll bounce off your hood, cost you 25% health, and slow you down quite a bit. Hit a bridge while in the air, and you're toast.

You can even hit a stationary obstacle, like a wall, head on - which will reduce your speed to almost zero, and most likely cost you the victory - but it won't do much more than put a few scratches on the paintjob. Not with bridges, though. Bridges are vicious.

The danger here are the jump ramps, especially in combination with nitro boosting. Always head dead-straight across the ramps, even the slightest spin or drift will edge-case the physics engine and send you skywards.

Doing that without a bridge can actually be quite hilarious, especially if you can manage to still win the race. Gives a bit of cash for airtime, too. But bridges kill. Beware.
