VIDEO: Flight of the Rally Cars
The coolest part about rally racing is undoubtedly those precious moments of air time, when racing cars – usually designed to great lengths to stay glued to the tarmac or dirt – take flight. People will camp out in the woods all day and watch entire races on television just for those rare glimpses.
This video gives you just the good stuff: WRC and Dakar racing machines flying over crests and down hills, plus some touring cars and open-wheelers spinning out, just for good measure. It's three minutes and nineteen seconds that elevates the levitating cars to a ballet. All for your viewing pleasure – see if you can stay in your seat.
