Holy cow! I wonder if that pass would be legal in NASCAR? Oh wait, if a NASCAR does anything other than turn left or pit there's a full-course yellow.

Looks like he hit the "Turbo Boost" button from Knight Rider.

That car is buoyed by all of the win inside of it.

He was carrying a lot of speed into that jump, good thing that other car was there to break his fall.

For the driver below, that must've been a lot like fast forwarding through the opening scene of Star Wars when the Imperial warship passes over.

If you watch closely, the first car to pass the screen runs straight through the corner and stops at the high side of the berm, the second car makes the turn, the jumper car careens of the car stopped in the corner and the jumped car gets his spot back.

Wow. Bet he didn't plan that.

About fifteen or so years ago, a guy named Shane Trittler made supercross history; in a qualifier he completely lost control of the bike over a double jump. He landed on the seat of the bike next to him IN MID AIR and both he and the rider of the other bike successfully completed the jump. No pics were taken (unfortunately) but it was reported in DIRT BIKE, DIRT RIDER, Cycle News, Motocross Action etc.

I had forgotten that you couldn't keep KITT on the road. Also during all those jumps, Hasselhoff never once needed a seat belt. Different times.

i thought this was going to be about the last turn of the last lap of the NASCAR Nationwide race in Montreal today...

Good catch. That's some hairy E36 M3 right there.

I'm guessing it wasn't for position, and he made contact, AND he couldn't make the corner afterwards.

This was for position. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqaXktfn90M

I know it's an EG hatch that gets jumped on, but I can't say for sure what car did the jumping.
