This stupid sport is the reason Speedchannel dropped FIA World Rally? This is what my country does instead of real rally racing? No wonder Tanner Pfoust is such a nerd.

I saw that happen live. Crazy. Worst crash I've ever seen a X Games. There were a couple of really bad crashes in the Moto events/practice too.

Wow! Had not seen that, but to Reggie's comment I used to watch a lot of wrc and f1 but had to wean myself off it when I cancelled cable tv. I do miss the footage and especially now that my son is old enough to appreciate good auto racing (ie not Asscar) I appreciate the heads up regarding Speedchannel in case I sign up for pay tv again.

WRC is gone competely- F1 coverage is still solid thankfully.

I was shocked when i saw that vid, i didnt know this kimda stuff existed... it s truly unhealthy and nothin in line with any kind of racing philosophy... it made me think of a full- size video game... but video games arent supposed to be real

Anyone remembers "Hard Driving"? that s exactly it...

Such a dumb sport, if you can even call it that.

Reminds me of this video:

that was a nice landing ramp, and now it's scratched.

That course was absolutely horrible - it looks like something from a kid's playset.

F1 has DRS, which in the way it is used is quite reminiscent of power-ups in racing games...on the other hand, this season actually is decent, with some very nice close racing - not the boring crap it was a few years ago.

This season of F1 has been better! I still think they need to get rid of the down force and race like the real men did in the 50's and 60's! I too miss the WRC on Speed! I would watch religiously every Sunday at my friends house! However, I think X Games has it's place in entertainment! Not as cool as WRC or Dakar, but fun to watch none the less!

is it wrc? no, but it's still cool as heck. the course could have been wider/longer though.
the vid of that corr truck jumping is awesome. i wanna do that!
