you go backwards with the escudo and do some tweaking.

here's a trick you guys with 1800 hp escudos could do, widen out the gears all the way, move all the downforce to the back and move all the power to the back wheels and turn off the tcs and asm and go for the test course and then watch your front end of the car take off and then the whole car and then let it come all the way up and let the wheels spin and watch your speeds go way over 500 mph. I'm pretty sure this can also be done with the vette C5R. GT3 lets you fly hehe

Set the Downforce in the back as high as possible, and opposite in the front, spring height all the way down, spring rate to the lowest possible, turn off the traction control as well as the stability, set the gears to wide, and go on the Maxspeed testing and turn around and run the track backwards. As soon as you hit 230mph, the front will start to lift.... then you pick up speed very very very fast. If you time it just right, you'll begin to lift as soon as you exit the turn. And by the way, I used the Escudo with stage 4 Turbo. It's kinda boring but interesting to do in the beginning. Plus you'll have bragging rights with your friends. Good luck!!
