I jump up but never return

hi - I'm creating a shot that involves a car jumping from one ramp to another. The car and rig are great - they even interact with the surface really well. My problem arises when the car makes the jump . . . it hits the ramp and launches into the air . . . but just keeps going up and up and up. It looks almost like it goes into orbit! If I slow down when I hit the ramp, the cars falls over the edge like a lead balloon. Where do I start to adjust the "mid-air" characteristics of the rig? It's obviously working with the terrain fine (as it goes up hill and down again, plus goes up the ramp). It's once it takes off where I have a problem. Any thoughts?

yeah - I found that posting not long after I posted my question. Thank you for your response. Do you have a rough idea when the jumping module will be added back in?
