FlatOut bonus races: what is the best angle to throw the driver?

I've played Flatout 2, which has the same stunts. Its meter displays how many degrees its at. I'm guessing this one doesn't =(

If they're at all similar, then each notch should be 10 degrees.

For the long jump, 45 degrees is ideal - Aim for just above the middle notch.

In the case of the high jump, it depends on the speed you're going at when you launch out of the car. Try 45 degrees - If you hit the "net" after you've stopped rising and started falling, then try launching at a lower meter position. If you hit the net before you reach the peak of your trajectory, then try launching at a higher meter position.
