Pastrana 2 sports

Travis Pastrana is known as a dirt biker but now a rally racer also. Dave Mirra is going to be racing rally cars this year also. How sick would it be to do two sports at the xgames? let alone Rally racing.

Ace Why not?

I dont see any problems with it. If your an athlete...and good at a few different sports, Id enter as many events as I could in the x Games as well. I bet we are going to see more and more xgame athletes doing different sports

I think a few of these athletes doing different sports at the X games go double gold. Pastrana might do it....

Yup. I think the same as you. But this is only a recent thing right? (joining up for more than one sport)

Yeah, its a recent thing. You always had guys that would do different events with one sport, but they havent always switched to another sport.

Who wouldnt want to race rally cars? I think this sports just going to get bigger. Ill bet we see athletes from all different sports come and try to get in the X games action. But for now it looks like Travis Pastrana has that event locked up. U ever here anything about him having a rally school?

No, never. You? I could google it of course to see about that

I saw something on the speed channel about it. Looked it up on the net and couldnt find to much.

They start you out with an old beat up car. You work your way up through courses,different cars, and driving conditions. Before you know it your training with rally cars.

They were talking about how alot of pro athletes and other extreme sport athletes were taking the course.
Let me know if ou find anything about it. Ill look and try and send you a link.

Great! I will keep my eyes open as well and let you know here.

Yeah, I dont know. Ive been looking. I cant find anything on it. When you type in Travis Pastrana and rally racing etc. All you get is info. on him racing.

Has he even been doing this long enough to have a school. Should open a Dirt bike school. Teach tricks

Hes been doing it for a few years now. Well hes also doing dirt bike stuff as well. Maybe hes just trying to get more into car racing. Hes done and proved himself with dirt biking.
I sure hope he still rides though. Hope he never gives it up full time to race.

I bet Pastrana is just as crazy in a car as he is on a bike!

I bet he is crazy in a car. He will never be as good rally driver as a dirt biker. He has to come back and set the standard for the tricks. When someone hits a double he will come back and do more.

Hes a good driver but hes a great rider. Well great and crazy! I really dont think he will hang it up as far the dirt bikes go. He loves it to much. But with the X Games...the level of tricks and competition goes up higher and higher every year. Travis is doing the speed and style competition this year.

Speed and style? Its a shame he wont be doing any freestyle

Yeah but Speed and style still shows some good tricks. You can see some freestyle in that event. Here is a super quick link to Travis Pastrana. He is getting in a practice run for speed and style.
Look at the trick hes doing.

thought speed and style was different. Can Travis do his DB?

Im sure he can still do a double backflip. Not sure he will try it, but its possible. I like Travis but Stenberg, Adams look good also.

U wld want to try a double when you have more speed you can build. Such as a best trick. I dont know if Travis is in the right event.

Its not that hes in the wrong event. He can still do his thing and go for gold. People want to see him do more now. He will make that event fun to watch.

Maybe Pastrana is more about racing the car now?? Now days most of the time when you hear his name its about rally racing. Maybe hes trying to slowly move into something bigger

We will always know him as the crazy dirt bike rider. Is Rally racing bigger?

Pastrana will always be a dirt bike rider and known for his X Games stunts. I think the Rally racing can take him further. Car racing is alot biger then Dirt bikes. So rally racing might be great for him.
