DAMN!
That guy can drive. From pavement, to lose dirt to altitude.
No way I'd have the stones to keep my foot in it that close to some of those drop offs
Thanks for posting thats the first time I've seen the whole in car version

I know, I've gone to Vimeo a few times now to watch it HD full screen on my 27" monitor - Awesome

The second clip is one of the best edited (and shot) videos I have ever seen.

11 minutes in a rear drive car:eek:

I have always wondered about the drivers when the air gets that thin, does the noggin get a little groggy?

That guy's got mad skills - although I did catch him lifting in a couple of the turns. Still, amazing run. That's officially on my bucket list now!

Some real "pucker factor" moments on the dirt just after the 10:00 mark. Day-umm!
