Racing Wrecks

No wreck in this one, just some uber-cool airtime by Mikko Hirvonen in a WRC Ford Focus. Info courtesy of Autoblog.

Only ten days ago Jonny Greaves jumped his closed-course race truck from one dirt ramp to another — those ramps being separated by close to 300 feet. Greaves ended up going 301 feet, and set the record for the longest ever jump in a 2WD truck. It’s even more fun to watch than to read about, if only because his engine makes his Toyota sound like it’s powered by demons and banshees.
