He technically got a record. He was jumping a 'rally car'..

Though it's not Bowman's jump, which was the longest with any car. Granted he pretty much demolished the car when he did the 272 jump. Can't say this guy really demolished his car here..

Should have used a Chinese car.



Funny thing is that it's based off of the Isuzu Rodeo. <_<

Cool! So, today I just set the world record for jumping a red car with blue wheels and a christmas tree in the trunk. My official record is 9 feet.

I googled Ray Bowman 272 and all it came up with was your post and... "Foot in mouth disease".



If crash landing counts, I think Powers wins

Yes, you did. I also got the record for putting an Explorer on two wheels in Kalamazoo, Mi. To date I believe I still hold that record.

Dude, when I first saw that and read the story behind it, I bust a nut. Sponsors copped out a dude when they got pissed at the original guy, who that then wiped out almost killing himself while the jumps designer/original driver just lol'd from the sidelines.

Priceless. You Canadians are sly ones..
