well 135mph for a human is a lot more than the car could fall, especially since they have it falling wheels down, it's essentially a falling brick (which is not going to happen, it should fall front end facing the earth because of the mass of the engine), meaning the drag has a huge impact

I think we're starting to catch on.

Not CG, but two separate shots pasted together.
