Obviously they arent going to make one pass and thats it, and you'll see tire marks from practice runs. It just takes away from the wow factor for me knowing its not one run that he was able to practice each section and then tie them all together with one solid pass. Hell, a lot of people could piece together a solid run if they took the best from each section and just edited them all together. I'll have to check out the Gymkhana Files. |

one of the reasons for multiple runs on the jump over the harbor was to get the timing on the boat passing directly under the car mid-flight. the video doesnt really give you an appreciation for how tight that landing area is. i thought there was a serious risk of him ending up in the bar area of the restaurant that was less than 25 yards from the end of the ramp. seeing him land and immediately begin drifting to make the turn off the end of the ramp is just insane.

Professionals are always leaps and bounds ahead of amateurs. Whether it be on the golf course, the pool, or a race track. It would be quite dangerous to have the expectation that Pastrana could do it once full throttle without practice. I'm kind of disappointed how members of a race driven car brand don't understand how difficult the driving is in the video.

Super cool to see Pastrana and Hoonigan team up, I love it!
Few things cough my attention though: 1) Pastrana seems to have that resting 'Oh SHIT face 2) The new BRZ was slow AF 3) When the 5'oh clock me at 144 I stay on it too. Also Speed Limit 25, LOL 4) When the wife calls, I don't care who you are, you better get home

Good work if you can get it.
