Travis Pastrana Successfully Flips Rally Car
[ April 1st, 2009 ] By: Charles Smith Posted in » Ramblings
Just got word from a buddy who lives in Maryland that Travis Pastrana successfully landed a backflip in a stripped down version of his competition car. Video isn’t out of it yet, but hopefully it will be! Someone got a pic of it though:
Travis Pastrana really is amazing when it comes to things with wheels and motors. I hope to see him start using this move in his rallies!
Uh oh, I just realized this could also spell doom for rally in America. Just like with Motocross he could be switching to the Freestyle variety. Freestyle Rally, X-Games 09 is looking like it has yet another sport to add.

Damn, that is RAD. How did he manage to torque it over like that on that jump?

I know right. I bet they took the inlet restrictor off to get a ton more torque and gunned it off the end. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.

Travis is always doing something crazy. I can’t want to see this trick on video.

this is AWESOME! I would have held onto the wheel the whole time arms bouncing around in that cage can cause broken fingers and broken fingers mean less driving time.

At the Red Bull experiment, Rhys Millen flipped a trophy truck. but TP didnt flip his rally. Photoshop does wonders. Sorry guys
