Holy cow.  I dont care who you are, that guy has skills.  The 180* turn was my favorite, it was pinpoint.  The segway part, I would have bailed, lol.

Here is a legend of Rallye that died way too early, Colin MacRae. He died in a helicopter crash last year.

He rolls his WRX and doesn't miss a beat. He had to have down shifted during this roll.

4x4 drifting - now that's skill. Awesome car and driving. Collin MacRae and Possum Bourne, both awesome drivers who passed on behind the wheel. It's a shame the US isn't involved more in the WRC - World Rally Champs, hardest driving in the world - easily. New Zealand is a player and they have the NZ event down here, it's a sight to see.

This is how it's done New Zealand style!!  :ylsuper:

That guy has MAD skills!  :eek2: :2thumbs:

There is some rally in the US sponsored by the SCCA, but nothing like the WRC.  Most drivers who are into racing on open course dirt are active in off-road racing, which I think you don't see much of in other parts of the world.  Paris - Dakar is the only big race I'm aware of similar to the Baja 1000.  I'm sure there are others in other parts of the world - gotta be something in OZ? - but for some reason WRC has never caught on here.  I was bummed when it stopped being shown on SPEED regularly.

We have Rally America in the US also. Travis Pastrana is my hero! I'm pretty sure he was thinking about taking the leap to the WRC. I would loveee to race novice rally(http://www.nasarallysport.com/) when I get older and have a better cash flow.

DRifting is a blast , not too hard once you realize you can steer with power & don`t get panicked , it would still take some practice to get the prcision he has with the car , great driving  :2thumbs:
