Good thing he had his brown underware on that day! Great driving.

LOL! Let's see... I got home from work, checked for rallycross pics online, washed the VX and sprayed, pushed, pulled, and scrubbed off a couple hundred lbs of dirt and grass (well, it sure seemed like it anyway) out of the underbody, ended up looking like the underbody had myself, got cleaned up, then e-mailed John to get this video and then saw you'd posted it already... thanks - VERY cool clip!

That was freakin SWEET! Talk about some mad skillz! Can you imagine if that guy running from the path WASN'T watching what was going on? He woulda been toast! Gotta lover Ralley! I know when I had cable thats the ONE thing I always looked for. Great clip!

Coach... I mean Randy (I often forget who I really am) ;)

All I can say is WTF?!

I know driver experience comes into play, but without LUCK, that could never have been pulled off. I guess the man upsatirs finally decided to pay this guy back some, heh.
