Tanner FTW

Yeah, yeah, record jump. Ok, ok, side show to the Indy 500. Purpose built stadium truck promoting children's toys, whatever. 100 ft replica of a bedroom door, great gimmick. Said truck landing with barely any bounce whatsoever; SNORE....

What was most amazing to me was that as his truck was still in the air, it was all over the Twitterverse that Tanner Foust was the driver of the record setting stunt. So much for "check our Facebook page for the identity.." crap.

So this is what he quit D1 for? Really? Can't imagine what his fee is for something like this...

Ford Fiesta, King of Rallycross

Formula Drift at Yas Marina Circuit

Tanner gets schooled - YEAH, OK...

Nobody likes a wiseass riding shotgun. Funny how a British accent can make anything sound polite.

Tanner Foust - Multi-talented motorport demi-god...

OK, I get it. Top Gear (US version, of course) leaves me convulsing in pain more and more each time I watch it. It would be downright intolerable if it wasn't for Tanner Foust.

All packed up and ready to go...

Not exactly first-class accommodations, but it is secure! The Formula D show submitted their drift weapons and assorted equipment to the lords of the docks, also known as the Long Beach longshoremen, to be loaded for the ocean portion of their trek to Abu Dhabi.

Foust's ride snug as a bug
