Travis Pastrana's New Year

[Car Freak]

Utterly utterly completely totally un-freaking believable! :omg:

(Okay, so the commentators were crap this time round, but do we really care? ;)

 

And some practice runs:

 

 

 

And the best thing about him? He's so nonchalant about all the dangers involved in jumping a car that far... Respect!

[DriftNismo]

Yeah, saw it the other day: INCREDIBLE :D :D :D :D. He's not all there in the head :D.

[KoenigseggBG]

Ah yeah, read about it in the last TG's magazine. He's a maniac really, incredible. :bow:

[Penfold]

That's completely mental :nuts:

[-Lr-SpeedraceR]

Awesome ! :D

[Jacob]

I Think He's Fearless, because he is the WORLDS GREATEST Freestyle motocross rider!!

[StrickenHAWK?]

I also saw this the other day. Amazing!

[iLLGT3]

Yeah, he can jump a "rally car " over a gap of water yet he's nowhere near a good enough driver to even think of racing in the WRC.

 

He just sticks to his little RA. He's a over-hyped person that gives people the wrong idea of what rally is all about. Oh wow, he won the X-Games rally, he must be awesome at it!!!

 

Don't get all mad... This was an amazing feat and everything and I like Travis but his fanboys over-hype him a little too much.

[Jacob]

Well Atleast Kenny Block has something to do.. To try and one up him.

He's only over-hyped in rally. And thats because him and KB are the only rally drivers anyone in the US has ever heard of. So that makes one of them 'world champion' ;)

In everything else his hype is well deserved... and I've been a huge fan of his since the mid nineties. Got a little bored now he's 'rallying' though.

Shame he's too injured to ride a bike properly anymore.

[Jacob]

Too Injured to freestyle but he can roll cars and crash them and jump over 250ft lol.

[Mb]

Pastrana and Block are great guys. They might not do WRC. But atleast they make Nitro Circus :lol:

[sfy2004]

great jump. perfectly level in the air, perfect landing.....ok so the stop did not go quite as well. but overall, the kind of jump every stuntman tries very hard to pull off

 

 

definitely believers in the "6 P's"

Don't get me wrong, I like Pastrana and everything he has done but the sport of Rallye is not for him.

[TimBud]

Jep.

Although KB is way more overhyped and overrated than Pastrana.

All he does is drift around an airport and crashes when he actually races.

[KoenigseggBG]

Anyone remembered how Pastrana "handled" a X-Bow at 2009's Race of the Champions? :lol:
