How will different Ramp angles affect my cars handling?

Ramp angles will affect the cars handling in corner entry and exit with how aggressive the deceleration and acceleration is. For example

30/90° ramp angle- 90° will feel very free going into a bend on deceleration almost a free wheel feel to the car. 30° will be a very aggressive acceleration and will have alot of "lock" and drive off the bend.
