How so can you go over speed humps faster? Depends on your driving and how low the car is. There's ways of going over speed humps really fast.
If you approach a speed hump fast, you brake hard just before it and just as quickly let go of the brake, this causes the car to lurch forward on the braking meaning the front is lower than the rear and when you lift off the brake, you can apply steady gas as well, the rear will lower and the front will raise up meaning you can clear the speed hump better and you don't feel the harsh bump from the speed hump if you do it right.
Ehh have you driven an Euro? It's because the nose is really low and the suspension is medium..
I've tried several ways of going over speed humps, but in an Euro you need to slow down way before the speed hump, go slow on the hump, and stay slow until your back tyres have gone past too.. Some of the time my rear is completely off the ground and my suspension makes a funny noise as all pressure is released..
Or else, if I do your method, the beginning is fine, however if you accelerate during the hump to raise the nose, it WILL scratch the bottom when you come down again because suspension is sorta soft..
I cant even go onto some driveways properly because of this stupid problem.. and sometimes the bottom of the nose scratches the log of cement in some parking spaces.. hence I tend to go rear in first now..
