00:00Hi, I'm Street Bike Talia from Nitro Circus, and I'm on pace with Pastrana.
00:04Woo-dee-doo!
00:06My name is Travis Pastrana.
00:10This is my wife.
00:18This is where I came from.
00:27This is where I'm going.
00:35And this is my story.
00:46We're here at Fontana.
00:47We're not doing NASCAR this time.
00:49We're doing Rally.
00:50We've got the Rally set up right over here with the Dodge Dart.
00:52X Games is two days away.
00:53And X Games is actually going to be our best for the Dart track.
00:57It definitely has a lot of different variety in it, so it's going to be a fun week.
01:01So we're trying to get Travis' Dodge Dart sorted out for X Games.
01:04The trouble is we never had an ideal set up at Charlotte or at Texas.
01:08And then X Games is different again.
01:10It's more narrow, the speeds aren't as high, and there's a lot of dirt sections which might have some bumps
01:15into and out of.
01:16So if we can get Travis really comfortable where he feels like he can place the car where he needs
01:20to, we're going to be going the right direction.
01:22Got all the new chassis, new everything, so we'll take over a little shakedown.
01:25It's awesome.
01:26Just came from Milwaukee yesterday.
01:28Had an awesome test with the NASCAR team.
01:30Learned some cool stuff.
01:31We're going to try it on the Rally car.
01:32We've got Bryce over here in the 99 car, so it's pretty cool.
01:36He's never really been in a car quite like this, so it's going to be a really fun day for
01:38him.
01:39We're giving him a lot of crap.
01:40These are the easiest cars and the hardest cars to drive because wherever you're pointing, they go.
01:43But wherever you're pointing, they go in a hurry.
01:46My first time ever driving a rally car, so we're going to be out here testing for two days trying
01:49to get, you know, the feel for it.
01:51My background is off-road. I race trophy trucks and short-course trucks.
01:54Everything that you put into it, as long as you just keep aiming.
01:59Wheeling it?
01:59Yeah.
01:59Hey, slick turns.
02:00We're good, man.
02:33I feel like we still have a little bit of an understeer issue after it sets.
02:38I've been out here all morning watching Travis, you know, test his car and make a bunch of changes and
02:42see what he does with the car.
02:43Throw it around and trying to get some feedback from him of what I should do in my car.
02:47Biggest thing for me, I think, is to get the understeer out of the car. I mean, it's a big
02:50car. It's the American muscle of rally.
02:52The problem was once it rotated and all that weight set on that front tire, the front outside tire, that's
02:58the only, like it was like only one wheel was gripping with the ground.
03:01I think it's gonna be good to make some pretty substantial changes in a direction so it's clear very quickly
03:08if it helped or didn't.
03:09And then we can back off from there and find maybe a sweet spot.
03:12We're about 1.2 seconds faster with this setup than back-to-back runs with the old setup.
03:19And we were 9 tenths off the pole of the last race.
03:22So in theory, this ship won us 3 tenths faster than everybody else.
03:58This year at X Games, it's different from every other year.
04:01A, because I'm not afraid for my life.
04:02And B, because I'm not riding a dirt bike.
04:04So I made a career on dirt bikes, but this year, I'm going for the gold in the rally car.
04:08And I get to watch all my friends with motorcycles.
04:10I don't know if it'll be hard or easy for him to kind of sit back while all the festivities
04:15go on and wait until Sunday for his event.
04:21Alright, on our way today we have the Red Bull X Games opening party and then we're going straight from
04:27there to the red carpet.
04:28The Man Chinese Theater for a Nitro with 3D premiere.
04:31Should be good. I don't dress up much.
04:33And I love it when she dresses up, so this is gonna be a good night.
04:35Aw, well thanks.
04:36This is service with a smile right here.
04:40How to talk to the team.
04:42You know, communicating with those guys.
04:44Spending time and just really, it's kind of a different, it's not in the car practice, per se.
04:49So it's been a very challenging thing, but I really enjoy the challenge, so it's been fun.
04:54Do you have any Grey Poupon?
04:57Do you have any Grey Poupon?
04:58Do you have any Grey Poupon?
05:01Hey, you have malt liquor.
05:03Hey, you gotta switch malt liquor.
05:05Did you see you split it down?
05:07Oh, I gotta go that way.
05:08Yes.
05:13It can't be low because then you don't see it.
05:15We're here at the Red Bull X Games opening party.
05:17It's going to be awesome.
05:18What are we doing?
05:22I thought this was a party.
05:25I know, dude.
05:26I forgot Blue Steel.
05:26It wasn't quite ready yet.
05:28No.
05:43We're here at the Roosevelt at a DC party just before Nitro Circus 3D private screening.
05:49And we put so much work and energy, blood, sweat and tears into this.
05:53I'm happy to still be standing.
05:55And tonight's the night.
05:56My wife has a super awesome cape.
05:58It's a butt cape.
05:59Turn around real quick.
06:00Look at the butt cape.
06:01She's a superhero.
06:02It's a super butt.
06:03She's got a nice butt.
06:04It's been years and years in the works just to get a movie.
06:07And the fact that it's now going to be in the theaters for people to see.
06:10We are overjoyed.
06:12This place is really trending.
06:14I wonder if Travis Pastrana is here.
06:26The last one.
06:30The last one.
06:30The last one.
06:31The last one.
06:31The last one.
06:31The last one.
06:33Nitro Circus 3D.
06:34The pre, pre, pre premiere.
06:36Just as a thank you to all the guys that have helped us make this movie.
06:39All the guys at X Games were a part of it in some way, shape, or form.
06:42All of the industry.
06:43And it's going to be a good night.
06:45It's the first time I've actually seen the movie all the way done.
06:47And I'm looking forward to it.
06:48Is it because of the foreground I feel famous?
06:53I'm super excited to check out Nitro Circus 3D.
06:56I mean, it's 3D first off.
06:58That's going to be sick.
06:59But no, man.
07:00Those guys are crazy.
07:00Always doing crazy things.
07:01I enjoy watching it on TV.
07:03So I'm excited to see the movie.
07:04That's 3 Black Tom.
07:34This is the first time I saw the Nitro 3D movie.
07:36It's been a long time in the making.
07:38A lot of rug burns.
07:40A lot of cuts and bruises.
07:41It was amazing.
07:45You know, just watching Travis in Nitro Circus, it's insane what he does.
07:49Definitely makes me a little more nervous watching him do all this stuff and driving next to him.
07:53When it comes to the time of coming door-to-door, battling, he's going to give it all he has.
07:56And, you know, we're going to be rubbing paint out there, but the best one's going to come away with
07:59the win.
08:07Staying beside me, Sebastian Loeb, eight-time World Rally Champion.
08:14Everybody here knows that he's pretty much the fastest driver.
08:17We had to take the race to him.
08:19So, you know, that's our goal.
08:20For me, it's the first time I do a rally-cross race.
08:23So even compared to what happens in Europe, I cannot compare.
08:26I've never done it.
08:26So it's a bit different from everything I've seen at the moment.
08:32Yeah!
08:33Sebastian's very calculated.
08:34Even his mannerisms, everything is very...
08:36I don't think you can spook this guy.
08:37I don't think you, sir.
08:40That's not my way.
08:40My way is here.
08:41That's for the crazy guys like Travis.
08:45France against America.
08:46We're going to go and race go-karts against the world's best rally driver, Sebastian Loeb.
08:53America!
08:54America!
09:06This is the difference between rally and rally-cross.
09:11See, in rally-cross, you have to deal with other people as well.
09:15It doesn't really matter what you're in.
09:16Even if you jump in a completely different car, a new car, within the first corner or two,
09:20you know how much grip it has.
09:21You know how to drive it, you know, fast.
09:22And honestly, like Sebastian said earlier, driving's driving.
09:29I think Sebastian's just not used to the head-to-head as much.
09:33He was trying to be fair.
09:34My one-hundredth of a second!
09:36Woo!
09:38I just was yelling and screaming and taking him out in every corner, so make sure he can get a
09:42good laugh.
09:43Sunday, it'll look a lot like that.
09:44And then all hell breaks this.
09:46Game on and good luck.
09:48Clearly a hero of mine.
09:49I mean, gotta try to beat him this weekend.
09:51It's for Sunday.
09:54Down the whole place and just had Sebastian and I kind of racing around.
09:57It's just fun.
09:58Yeah.
10:08So no girl's ever going to want to do the seven-foot right there.
10:10Big guy?
10:11And she's linked into the corner.
10:13That's my wife.
10:13Yeah.
10:14She became the first girl to do this when she was 14 years old.
10:18And basically, she's done it.
10:19And she was 14.
10:20And she was 14.
10:21Drop in.
10:22Once you make this, then there's no breaks on the skateboard.
10:24It's all the way up to the trail.
10:48So tough.
10:50She's tougher than half the boys out there.
11:02Yeah.
11:02Just finished MegaRamp practice.
11:04And I finally landed the gap.
11:06And I got to the quarter pipe.
11:08Needed about a 10-foot air.
11:09But I popped out really far.
11:11So I pretty much fell like 25 feet out of the sky.
11:13And I bailed.
11:15But I'm pretty stoked that I landed the gap.
11:17Yeah.
11:19Right now, we are in the mazes that connect the Staples Center to the LA Live.
11:26Usually, when I'm here, I'm hurt.
11:27So this is kind of nice to be able to walk on my own power TV.
11:32I'm about to head out right now.
11:33We're doing all kinds of games.
11:34Just going to be commentating Best Trick.
11:36Good to watch all our buddies on that one.
11:38So maybe the 720 is going down tonight.
11:51And now we're watching Moto step up and they're just shattering world record right now.
11:57Travis is actually being a good little announcer and studying and making notes and getting all ready and psyched up
12:03for Best Trick.
12:04All these guys are all my friends.
12:05They're all on Nitro.
12:06Our buddy Ronnie Renner out there just absolutely crushing it.
12:09Clearing that bar.
12:09Super big.
12:10World record by like six feet.
12:11Him and Biden keep going up.
12:13But thanks.
12:27Ronnie Renner, 47 feet, 10 foot higher than the previous world record.
12:32Renner, I think his wrist is jacked.
12:34These guys are not going to be able to celebrate yet.
12:36They're going to be so smart.
12:36Best Trick is about to start and it's going to be a huge year.
12:41Relief to be standing up here and not down there.
12:43Totally nervous that Travis is going to go.
12:45So I really hope that Clinton lands it because that means Travis won't have to do it.
12:50Let's do it some video.
12:52ESPN Live.
12:52Get ready for Moto best trick.
12:54And adjust the point for trick number two.
13:07Not having Travis do it wasn't much better.
13:10My heart still hurts when Clinton's part of the Nitro Live family.
13:14And pretty much just landed how Travis did last year.
13:17Ugh.
13:24You knew you were small and you still were like, yeah.
13:26Oh yeah.
13:30How are you alive?
13:31I don't know.
13:32That hurts.
13:33If I played like three heights before that, I'd be like, you know what?
13:36I'm done.
13:36You wouldn't have quit your knee was going to do it.
13:37I'd have been done.
13:38I'd have been done.
13:39I'd have been done.
13:40It was such a joke, so.
13:42First time in the dirt.
13:43Yeah.
13:43You're the two keys.
13:44Yeah.
13:45You grab backwards.
13:46You grab like this.
13:47Right now.
13:48It's a completely different feel.
13:49You're like, I went straight off like this is the wrong triangle.
13:52I need to try to slow it down.
13:53You should be out.
13:54You're still walking.
13:55You're so much better than me last year.
13:56You didn't yourself or break your ankle.
13:58High five.
13:59Thanks man.
14:00See you later.
14:01Awesome.
14:11The Hot Wheels jumps about to go.
14:13Rob Dyrnick and myself have got a huge line of people that just showed up from one day
14:17of social media saying that we're going to be here.
14:19We are here kicking off with the greatest American ever.
14:24Travis Massana and myself, Rob Dyrnick.
14:26We've got a line full of people.
14:27It's always cool to do stuff with Rob.
14:28He gets a big crowd.
14:30How are you doing today?
14:52This was actually the most organized meeting we had.
14:55Ish.
14:56The jump's pretty interesting because hiking and wind came up short yesterday.
15:00Everybody freaked out and they made a table top and now there's no joker lap and...
15:03If you don't change your direction, that you're going straight so that we don't have people changing in midair.
15:09Like, just because you move to the right doesn't mean you're not going to jump.
15:12Because they're both lanes to jump.
15:14If you don't jump it, then you've got to stay to the right and Ken's worried about landing on somebody.
15:17But, I mean, everyone's going to jump it. It's fine.
15:20And if they don't, they're European, so who cares?
15:25We're about to get going, practice and qualifying.
15:28There's a lot going on right now.
15:30Because of the crash or the jump yesterday, these cars have not even turned a wheel on the course here
15:35yet.
15:35We're going out for practice. We lined up four cars.
15:38We get 16 laps and then that's also seating, which is qualifying at the same time.
15:42We've got to get top three.
16:05Just got in from the second qualification. We get three.
16:08Technically, we're in second.
16:21We're about to fire it up. We're about to go out for our...
16:26Oh, my God.
16:28Mark's gone home. Just hit the concrete barrier.
16:31He just knocked himself out really bad.
16:34Holy crap. They're cutting the roof off the car to get him out.
16:37And no one moved.
16:38They tried stopping the crew from getting on the track.
16:40They got there and they'd been there for five minutes.
16:42Boy, anyone even went there.
16:43He's out on the Revolume for about two minutes.
16:45Out cold on the Revolume.
16:46He's seriously, seriously up.
16:47That might be...
16:48Holy shit.
16:53It's just everyone saying the safety of the track or the safety of the officials.
16:56No one really got to him very fast.
17:02Really, everyone was pretty much done after he hit the wall.
17:05I elected to keep driving after Marcus.
17:07I feel horrible, but there's nothing I could do.
17:09And as a competitor, I really wanted to do the best we could for our team
17:12and get the best possible starting and qualifying spot.
17:14And then they said those times were going to be stripped.
17:15After everything was done, we're sitting second.
17:17We're in the game.
17:18We've got a car that works.
17:30Here we are, X Games 18.
17:31It's rally day.
17:32Travis qualified second yesterday.
17:35So far this morning, he's done one practice session.
17:37All the drivers have done a practice session.
17:49You're going to watch the first seat.
17:50The first place qualifier was Ken Block.
17:52Sebastian Loeb was fastest today in practice.
17:54So I think there's going to be a lot of guys really, really close for the win.
17:57Going into my heat, I started a third row.
17:59Got a really good jump.
18:00Coming into turn one, and the outside guy just turned in, hit me into Reese Millen.
18:04And it just sucked me back into fourth, and there's carnage.
18:15What the hell was that, dude?
18:16We got the fastest car on the track.
18:18You've got to be kidding me.
18:19Everybody was braking, and all of a sudden, I just get hit from behind
18:22like I'm thinking a Mack truck's coming, sir.
18:31There's a broken dude.
18:32We hit the wall at 60.
18:34First shot.
18:35First shot.
18:35Whoever makes that corner wins the race.
18:37There's no passing on nothing.
18:39It's broken.
18:41You can try, but it's tough.
18:43Travis murdered everybody off the start in his heat race.
18:47Everything was looking good, and then the guy that got the worst start just came and pile-drived him into
18:51the outside barrier in turn one.
18:53It wasn't much of a chance for him to have an opportunity to pull away from the field and guarantee
18:57his spot in the final.
18:59Now we have a wrecked car because one guy couldn't figure out how to use his brake pedals.
19:02It's ridiculous.
19:03First turn in the first heat, man.
19:04Travis came in the first turn, you know, he's first place, and they went and wrecked him.
19:08So they came back, tried to jump in my car to use it for the heat, just transfer the number
19:11over.
19:18They won't let him use my car yet.
19:21Man, we did good.
19:23We qualified.
19:24Good.
19:24I mean, had the whole shot.
19:26He just got clean.
19:34There is a loophole in the rules under exceptional circumstances.
19:38So basically, I would take Bryce's qualifying position.
19:41I would take, I am now Bryce.
19:44If that were to work, so.
19:45Right when I knew it happened with the car wrecking like that.
19:48Travis's team, his car, you know, he is X Games.
19:51That's when you think of a name like that.
19:52So get him in there and try to go win this thing.
19:54So he's going to go in the last next boat, right?
19:57Correct.
19:57In the same qualifying times and everything that were used.
20:01From, from Bryce.
20:02That Bryce earned it.
20:03For the car.
20:03Got it.
20:04We're using Bryce tires, Bryce car.
20:06Everything Bryce has earned with Moondriver 980.
20:08Got it.
20:08Hey, they're not telling you a number.
20:10If they're saying it's not allowed, give me a number.
20:12Give me the rule book and give me a number.
20:13There's no clause like the one there is in GRC.
20:15They don't need a number that says no.
20:17So is there something about cars in ESPN?
20:19There's nothing that says.
20:20Just show me the rule book.
20:22Hey Bryce.
20:22That's a GRC rule.
20:23Get geared up, man.
20:24I thought we were going to be able to switch Bryce out under rules that were in the GRC.
20:29I could have raced.
20:30So Bryce got out.
20:30He adjusted the car for me.
20:31The last second X-Game said no.
20:33That's not the, that's not the sanctioning body.
20:36We are and you can't run.
20:37So Bryce is sitting right here and if he drives that car like he did in the first couple laps,
20:42it's going to be great.
20:44Don't jump.
20:44Don't jump.
20:44No.
20:45No.
20:55Oh, no.
20:57Oh, no.
20:59Oh, no.
20:59No.
20:59Oh, no.
21:00Well, you have fun to get the train.
21:06Hey Brent, dude, that second turn, you jumped it a little, but when you drive a car, that's
21:12how you drive, alright?
21:13That looked good, man.
21:14I have to know that if Lowe makes me the first turn, game over, so I'm just saying.
21:38Once Sebastian got through the first turn clean, it was all him.
21:43There's just no better driver, in my opinion, on the face of the earth, and it was an honor
21:48for him to come over.
21:49It was great for American Rally.
21:50Oh yeah.
21:51Congratulations.
21:53I'll hold this.
21:55Sign the only trophy I got this week.
21:58Actually, I mean, it's kind of a joke, it's go-karting and everything, but I'm going
22:01to frame this.
22:02Oh, congratulations on this.
22:04This is, you know, I mean, it's similar deals.
22:06They're, you know, it was pretty close, but he might have got the better end of the stick,
22:09right?
22:12On the next episode of On Face Pastrana.
22:17In this episode of On Face Past, we're on Face Past.
22:20All we have is…
22:31No, no, no, no, no.
22:31Oh, have you, too?
22:32Oh, have you.
22:33Oh, have you.
22:36Oh, have you.
