[BUG] Pod speed exploit

Normally when you hit the spacebar while in the pod it jets very quickly almost straight down. You can try to keep altitude by looking straight up while doing this but then you can't see where you're going. I was messing around with the pod the other day flying around upside-down; when I returned to flying upright I could hit space and jet around parrallel to the ground rather then shooting downwards, allowing me to move around quite quickly and indefinately. I've been able to reproduce this any time on any map whenever I've tried. All it takes is flying around upside-down for a short time while holding space and then returning to an upright position.
