Video: Practice Session #2 for Travis Pastrana’s New Year’s Eve Jump
Yes, indeed, we're about to rename this blog Straightline by Travis Pastrana. So you've heard Pastrana will try to break his good buddy Ken Block's jump distance record by attempting to jump a Subaru WRX STI off the end of a Long Beach, California, pier and onto a barge in the harbor on New Year's Eve. You've witnessed a "crash" during a practice session and, with the help of CG, you've visualized the jump off the pier with Pastrana.
Here's Practice Session #2 in which Pastrana has graduated to using a ramp prefabricated of wood and metal that is possibly a better simulation of a barge that the big dirt hill he used in the first session. In any case, this is said to be his last practice session (or at least the last one that Red Bull will post on YouTube) ahead of the Chick-fil-A Bowl.
