That driver is also the number one MotoX rider...


Doing tricks on motorcycles off jumps
like backflips and stuff. I saw him do a double backfip
on ESPN the other day. It was the first time
ever done in competition

Did anyone see the Rally Race for the X-Games the other day where the guy rolled his car, bent a rim (among other points of damage) and still managed to get second, missing first by only a second or so?

That was freaking awesome.

Classic Colin McRae right there. Even though he's one of the greatest rally drivers of all time, he's also known as one of the most reckless. They have a big jump named after him in the Finland Rally because he has had so many spectacular crashes there.

Pastrana aims to be his successor.

To the OP: this crash happened last year. Don't try this at home. Had this been a regular street car, and not rally-prepped, driver and co-driver would have been killed for sure.
