FULL RUN - Travis Pastrana's rally hillclimb up Mt. Washington

[@HelloWorld-xw3yc]

Climbing Mt. Washington is gnarly even driving at 25mph. Anybody who has done it and sees this video knows it take balls of steel and huge faith in your skills, co-pilot and machine to do it this fast.

[@bamaman5252]

25 mph is slow though?

[@rallysport4944]

+Bama Man Not if you're familiar with the road, it's a hazard to say the least.

[@rchampion82]

bama, I almost crapped myself at 15 on that road. It's no joke. Those turns dont have rails and its almost always a couple hundred foot drop

[@jeffmiller5514]

It's a piece of cake until you get to the treeline then it's like white knuckle the rest of the way! I'll have to try this in the minivan with the kids soon...

[@moosegoosler]

;)

[@danmanr]

I am as impressed by the navigator as I am with the driver. He never looks up from the paper. We did this drive yesterday and it's nuts to say the least.

[@ismschism5176]

+Dan Ritz That is one job I *would not want!!*

[@ChristopherJamesG]

Can you imagine you took notes on that road and then returned the next day to hit it flat out as a passenger while reading said notes to Travis... 😅

[@buddlust710]

He did look up in the beginning 1:15-1:20min mark

[@harrysingh23116]

Left 4 plus falls from cliff oh sorry i mean right 4 minus lol

[@scottmurray9827]

😂

[@yotheguy521]

Travis Pastrana once underwent surgery to remove a thirty-four pound, seven inch wide tumor, but then the surgeons got in there and realized it was just his adrenal gland.

[@dylangough8099]

+yo thguy QUICK START RUNNING WILDLY AROUND PICTURE FRAMES ON TABLES AND VASES AND...... oops comment is 4 months old, probably gone by now....opportunity wasted, my friend

[@garciabeto760]

Yo The guy proly his left nut of steel! lol

[@mustafamufasa]

I've never seen rally before. that was insanely fast. just amazing.

[@luciantruscott8528]

+mustafamufasa Def look up dirt rally in dif stages around the world. truly an amazing sport. Also check out pikes peak hill climb :)

[@captainkayaking]

Mate go look at wrc flat out he makeing it look really really slow WRC better

[@plebian2637]

Listening to the co driver talk is like listening to someone talk in another language

[@BigIronEnjoyer]

241Pizza Basically, numbers the single numbers (1-6) denote the sharpness of a turn - the lower the sharper. 6 being really gentle, no braking really required, to 1 being extremely tight, necessitating heavy braking before the turn. So "Right 6" means an easy right turn, "Left 3" means a fairly tight left turn. The "one hundreds" and "two hundreds" and so on are approximate distances (in meters usually) between turns. So "right 6, 100, left 3" means an easy right turn, followed by 100 meters straight, then a tight left. The rest is pretty self explanatory... "over crest", "tightens", "opens", etc. With those things in mind, try watching it again, and see if you can keep up.

[@Laxfield18]

Ryley Hayes what does minus and plus mean

[@BigIronEnjoyer]

Not entirely sure, everyone's calls are little different. It might be denoting the length of the turn, or it might be like a modifier on the tightness of the turn, IE 4-minus is a slightly tighter 4. But just watching the video again, I think the most likely thing is its referring to the camber (bank) of the turn. Plus means the road banks with the turn (like a NASCAR oval for example), and minus means the road banks against the turn.. so a right turn with minus camber has the road banking to the left while it turns right. Negative camber turns are obviously a lot tougher to make.

[@Laxfield18]

Ryley Hayes That's along the lines of what I was thinking too. the slope of the turn. was listening to Craig Drew as well on here, seems to have the same types of calls.

[@bxwizard]

+Ryley Hayes Thanks, that was helpful.

[@marmot1867]

5:47 "left 2 don't cut" Pastrana cuts anyway "ohohohohoh" XD best part

[@Sir.YeetusIII]

Lmao happens to me all the time on rally xD i always flip my car cutting smh

[@nicholas_scott]

There are some insane sharp jagged rocks right on the shoulder.

[@youreallthesame]

All in favor of bombarding the Dirt Rally website to put the Mt. Washington Road into the game. Here ye here ye!!

[@bradmorgan252]

youreallthesame I will

[@XtaticVideo]

в ней все равно физика на горе ужасна

[@tallicafan85]

i just drove this for the first time yesterday. that road is insane to drive, once i got past the tree line and got to dirt i was freaking out. racing this INSANE. going down kills your brakes and its good to do those brake cool down areas. i wish i brought my heat gun

[@tallicafan85]

it was a rental van 2015 sienna

[@rexbanner5958]

7.6 miles / 6:20 = 72mph avg

[@winkhvac62]

nice

[@AkAsCoTTii3]

ELVING people probably think that’s slow, but that’s insanely fast on this road

[@goodpools]

Could be better in the near future

[@ssimpalaguy1]

I've driven up there. I like going fast in my car, but 35mph was my max up there. This dude is insane!

[@richarddudley9920]

I've also driven the auto road. It took almost half an hour for me to reach the summit, in 2021 travis had a top speed in the section known as the meadow and hit a mind blowing 143 mph. Absolutely insane driving from an ultra-talented and fearless driver

[@xXfresh12Xx]

It's funny seeing comments "can't he go faster?" Dude is going 65+ the whole damn time. If that's not fast in a mt. Let's see you do it in your civic lol

[@dsoto3705]

+xXfresh12Xx Must be the same guys who add tow hooks and instantly gain 20HP lol

[@stradpeterka8747]

V8 V4 but they aren't purpose built racecars

[@16pacharapongngamlert30]

xXfresh12Xx ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@def1851]

Did this drive a couple of years ago, though not quite as fast, but It's a must do for anyone who's touring in the area. The high point in every sense of my trip round New England.

[@wkseeker178]

For all the ignorants that man did awesome. I've been at mt. Washington twice and it's a scary feeling going up 8 miles 6,288 feet over sea level with hills between 20 to 35 degrees of inclination. It looks like it's easy on camera but when you're going up it's another story. Not to mention the low oxygen because of the altitude which causes disorientation in human brain. I got really sick and it was unbelievable.

[@eyeAMtwinkEE]

There are entire cities that are at a higher elevation than this. If you are getting sick from 6200 feet then you need to be medically examined.

[@rouelibre1]

The precise work of the co-pilot is just amazing. He gives him eyes beyound the next coming bend. I am more impressed by the soundtrack than the images.

[@ruredrider]

Amazing teamwork between the Travis and his navigator. Pretty intense, my palms were sweating just watching the run. I've driven up Mt. Washington and I know that with the speed they're going, one bad turn and it's fatal. Travis is definitely honing his driving skills. Very cool. Makes me want to get a WRX... :-)

[@ViceKnIghtTA]

I saw him at the NJMP back in 2011 at a rally-cross promotional event; he was still part of the SRT driving that Red Bull Subie, facing off with Tanner Foust in a Monster-sponsored Fiesta; what an epic day that was.

[@WarHorseVarejao]

I've hiked that thing 2 times.You hike half the way up through forest. When you come out of the forest you see hustling and bustling winds rolling over the top of Tuckerman's Ravine and you know you are in for a drastic change in weather. You crest the ravine. The wind and the cold hits you. Its 30°F colder up there climbing up through the clouds. Boulders await...all boulders all the way to the top. Its exhausting and yet exhilerating. Re-energize at the summit restaurant and take it in.

[@MaxCastonguay]

He has earned the right to stick a "this car climbed mt. washington" sticker on his bumber XD

[@HoFFenSnoFFer]

Having driven that road i can say that is ABSOLUTE madness. The perfect mix of talent and insanity.

[@wnutninja67]

Red Bull has the best channel on youtube hands down!!

[@stephaniem9561]

Holy shit, I had chest pain watching this..these men have balls of steel!

[@fantasticpotato]

This car climbed Mount Washington

[@seeberg88]

Thank you Red Bull so much for sharing this after the requests on the last video. So cool to hear the the driving notes when you have played a lot of Collin McRae Dirt :)

[@GermanArmyX]

I watch this video now for 10 times and and it's still not boring! The sound and a great driver wow ;)

[@artfan101]

i worked on the summit for years. It is an exciting road at normal speed. Theat was 6 minutes of pure adrenaline!

[@josephtornstrom9195]

I forgot to breathe for seven minuets

[@IronFistGamingCSGO]

Literally

[@paulmuriuki]

Good job Travis!! Well driven! Close call on the 'do not cut' toward the top! We need to see you in the WRC !!!

[@B20PV]

05:19 "and left DON'T cut!" Lucky to get away without a puncture at 05:23. Awesome drive Travis!

[@WRX4moi]

We will miss you in rallying and other stunts with Subaru, Travis. Now go get'em in NASCAR!

[@THE-REAL-PIKCHU]

Should check out the Pikes Peak Hill Climb. The elevation at the start of the course is at over 6,000 feet!

[@blinkidpv]

I just drove the road yesterday. These guys are f'in crazy. That road is sketchy and narrow. No guardrails and steep drops.

[@davidcooper4385]

MAD SKILLS ........TRAVIS BIG BALLS PASTRANA...

[@gweggorz]

Awesome run! I can't even imagine racing in a cloud on a road like that.

[@roxannegordon6162]

I've seen this video twice now and still shake my head: why? I have climbed up this mountain a few times on various trails. That was an amazing experience that I will repeat. Drive a car? Forget it. Doesn't compute!

[@richardtruong6390]

+Roxanne Gordon Everybody got their own passion, and it so happens yours is climbing. haha

[@corinthian129]

Stop liking things I don't like!

[@richardtruong6390]

So just because you dont like it we arent aloud to like it ahhaha the world doesnt revolve around you.

[@WhiteLightning117]

He's not climbing it to see what's at the top. :)

[@tankmaster1018]

God damn, I knew Travis had gotten into rally car racing, but I had no idea he was this good at it!

[@dln.sweeney]

@AndyRock1 it is. Probably has an equal length header and a straight through exhaust. An Unequal length header is pretty much the sole contributor to the "boxer rumble", the straight cut gears also cover up the sound of the motor a fair bit.

[@Wiscompton608]

I'm thankful that someone still drives a Subaru

[@daggerSLADE]

David Higgins of Subaru Rally Team USA just completed the course at the official Mt Washington Auto Road Climb to the Clouds on June 26, 2011 in 6:11.54 .. had a fun time bein there .. how about that, Travis! Ya shoulda been there to defend your title ..

[@Jammie94Tegg]

Travis is such a god. such a cool guy, and so diverse, massive thumbs up!

[@mariosboom]

@vdeathpoolv What do you use for Dirt? Wheel or joystick? I also learned a lot by watching on-board! I apply the techniques by playing video games (dirt & wrc). It's very interesting to watch the best drivers on their favorite surfaces (Loeb/Sordo on asphalt, Hirvonen/Latvala on snow and gravel). Each driver has different style and techniques). It's very important to adapt your style and techniques on each surface to be a complete driver (Like Loeb, Grönholm, Mäkinen, Sainz ect).

[@rallyfan916]

I'm not an american rally fan at all but travis has shown his worth for sure and this rally looks like it would be such a blast to push threw!

[@jbd1989]

What a beautiful sound. Truly amazing turbo whistle

[@ehickey73]

what was the average speed for this run. This dude is a freak of nature. What kid would NOT want to go up like this dude. He seems legit and real. Just one more AWESOME video to the collection

[@reddragonfighting]

A rally car race up this mountain would be awesome to watch

[@Shado911]

@manlaw150 im pretty sure they are in a cloud. and conditions in washington blow, especially on mt wash

[@blue123111]

Those eyes!!!! The focus.... Crazy.

[@MikePattison]

I'm the same way, when I put the throttle down, I turn off the radio so I can think in silence...I could never do what these guys do, its absolutely amazing...

[@NaturallySelected]

Your comment was very helpful, thank you , you are a prime example of the rally community.

[@b5thomas7]

Travis Pastrana has no fear; this was amazing

[@Wiscompton608]

I'm thankful that someone still drives a Subaru! (The 2011's look like the 98's) Is the clutch "pedal" on his shifter?

[@Ssmlt3]

@JDCoolMan21 It's a description of the upcoming road. "50 right 5 plus" means "50 yards ahead, right hand turn. Take in fifth gear, accelerate out of turn."

[@TheRabbitFear]

he hit a rock near the end with his front left and got away with it 5:52

[@ThomasCTrusky]

I saw that, and I was just like "Oh fuck". Not as bad as Ken Block hitting that dirt pile.. lol fuckin turd

[@loki101389]

@Shado911 Mount Washington is in New Hampshire.... so im sure the weather conditions in Washington state play no part in it.... but im sure you knew that.

[@Floafffy]

I've been up that road multiple times. I have to say, it's not wide at all, especially near the top...just not a great way to go. But I love it.

[@VFS333]

1 day man!!! I soo wanna do this! the adrenaline rush just from watching makes me hungry for it lool xx

[@SuperLordHawHaw]

Must have a hell of a cooling system on that thing. There are pull outs along the road with water tanks for overheating cars.

[@AkAsCoTTii3]

Travis is just an all round badass. Nice guy too

[@badgoy8439]

man the last bit of footage was really something

[@LordBunbuns]

@esefoo where you go up over the top of a small hill, or just a small bump in the road

[@romanarr1403]

Невероятный заезд! Один из лучших!!!

[@802Garage]

@spokismONE Yeah, just did some more looking and apparently the Audi S2 with the previous record was over 500HP, the same as or more than this Impreza, so that's not really the deciding factor here. Not a Travis Pastrana fanboy by the way, just wanted to point it out.

[@Shado911]

@manlaw150 are you daft? The conditions are ideal for washington. and it wasnt unfamiliar. you hear their rally notes? theyve obviously tested it before, because the co driver seems to have meticulous notes.

[@jackaofdp]

4:55 Love it. Great film Red Bull, tank you ^^

[@beygonz]

@INeverSeenThisBefore, the previous record was held by an Audi S2 driven by Frank Sprongl in 1998.

[@WhiteLightning117]

His pacenotes are so perfect.

[@danubis077]

Sorry i've never seen this before, im guessing the second guy saying right and left 5, 6 max, dip. is giving him instructions on what is going on the road. like turns that are about to happen and stuff?

[@foxrider191]

Loeb would kill it. No one beat him on tarmac in 7 years. But I still love TP for his brillant skill on fmx

[@hynee]

@steowd95 ... and it makes those sounds on shifts, why exactly? Is it venting pressure into the exhaust system?

[@HavocMotorsport]

@hereisjamz it's called pacenotes, a code that the co-driver reads to give the driver a clear picture of what's ahead in terms of speed, degree of corner, any surfaces changes, obstacles, cautions etc. a "6 left + 80 into 3 right gnarly jiggy jiggy 100 5 left" would be a very fast left that's a bit long(+) then 80 yrds/metres into tight right into a set of wiggles with caution & 100 yards/metres after the end of the wiggles there is a fast left corner.

[@TheRohBoat]

Those were some DAMN good pacenotes!

[@hynee]

@CookeysAnMilk Kudos to you, my thoughts exactly. I think the subaru has a finely tuned exhaust system and backfire on downshift sounds like a pipe organ, but I might be wrong.

[@PortoFinoww]

This is probably the amount of road a normal car goes through in more than half an hour 😂

[@Gatojackal]

Beautiful 7 minutes!!!

[@renosteam]

NO VAN A CORRER LA BAJA 1000 DE ESTE EN NOVIEMBRE?? O ES MUCHO RETO PARA USTEDES?

[@DarklyBishop]

I wonder what kindof camera they are using with the fron view

[@EweChewBrrr01]

These rally drivers are amazing. When I drive and need to concentrate on what I'm doing I need silence in the car. These drivers not only have someone talking to them constantly but they also need to process what they are saying as well as focus on driving as well as make any necessary changes in their driving as well as push the limits so as to set a good time as well has hold in the nerves since they are driving as fast as possible through dangerous conditions. WOW!!!

[@tomkimball9798]

I hope they gave him a bumper sticker "this car drove up mt. washington". Been there...and it is a long ways down over the edge. "6 left, I mean right, right, right, sorry about that "!!!!!

[@peterdavignon9837]

And to think yesterday he shaved off about 30 seconds with a newer STi 6 years later clocked at 115mph. I'd go for ride any day!

[@tpostgamer]

hey, im ignorant of this subject, but what is that comm jammer on about? left 4+ opens over 100? i couldnt understand, no way he hitting 100mph, so idk, any help?

[@anne_frank_]

the turn is left and the tightness of it is 4+ . The turn opens over 100(yards presumably) or decreases in tightness over this distance

[@Tunerdude94]

@Kuth70 Okay, I read that in this video but I had noticed Block's old car had Vermont plates as well in a video I watched earlier.

[@ByzCathGAA]

We have a invite for you Travis to come to our Mountain. Next year is the 90th running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. 12.4miles, 156 corners, start is at 9,800 ft. finish is at 14,110 ft.

[@hynee]

@Bluestorm5 It might have quiet periods, if that's true they would definitely have meterologists on hand and would have chosen their time carefully.

[@TheGreatOne222]

travis pastrana is so chill

[@bobomanthecruzan]

those notes were really spot on, asside from the mistake or two, gangster note reading!..

[@t76d777f6d]

Who do you think is more important? The driver, or the navigator?

[@samualiam9981]

Does anyone know if Konami put this race on Gran Tourismo yet?

[@Tpatriot7]

loved it nice one travis

[@MiniGod00]

A lot of this is filmed with GoPro Camera! ++ Thumbs up!

[@jbd1989]

That turbo sounds at about 100 psi

[@JacobLaneHak54Life]

straight cut gears i think

[@thematteo1808]

that co-driver wasn't even looking up to see if he was reading the navigation at the right timing

[@traceofred]

It cannot be understated that Mt. Washington is one of the windiest places in the world. It had held the record for the highest winds recorded at 231 mph in 1934. I'm sure Pikes Peak can't touch that aspect of this course.

[@Qwazambo]

@mariosboom To add to this there are different codes for different drivers. You might hear people say short left or hard right. But Travis uses the number system. A 1 is a really really small turn. A 8 would be a hairpin.

[@clubdrift123]

As a co-driver in a Rally America event I can officially say that it is a lot harder than you describe it to be.

[@baileyferguson8812]

travis pastrana is awesome,extreme,sick.

[@manlaw150]

@Shado911 it started to get foggy half way through the video which are not ideal regardless of how great a driver you are.

[@Tairua4life]

would love to be able to see speed, and what gear

[@badfisssh41]

that run could have been all for not if the tire would have blown when he clipped the rock. That was an awesome run.....I love the "Jiggy Jiggy" These guys work really well together.

[@Squan007]

You're mostly right except Roh corrected ya too, 5 stands for the severity of the turn. If you hear any higher numbers(100, 70, 40, etc) these are speeds for entry of the corner.

[@pinoyALLmotorEVOIXMR]

This is in New Hampshire?

[@MetricHotrodsdotcom]

rally racing truly is "just two guys and theyre having a good time"
