From the 2013 Neste Oil Rally Finland. This guy sticks the landing right at Vso on the centerline, upwind wheel touching down first. Like a boss!

Looked like pretty close to Vne to me.

Velocity Never Exceed more than Stall Dirty.

Amazing vid, anyway.

The only wing this car has produces negative lift. As a result, Vso for this machine is about as fast as Vne for most others. It's in the POH .

If he didn't have hemorroids before that landing...

So to maximize cruise flight, roll inverted?

Correct. This car was never popular with pilots for that very reason.
