Subaru Rally Team USA - Rally Colorado 2007

Now in its fourth year as a national level rally, Rally Colorado is shaping up to become one of America's best and biggest rallies. The rally is based in the beautiful year-round resort community of Steamboat Springs, just a short drive west into the mountains from Denver. The landscape includes fast sections of road and open areas for great spectating. The high altitude, coupled with fast straights put the high horsepower Open class cars at a distinct advantage. Subaru Rally Team USA driver Ken Block earned a critical win at Rally Colorado, setting the stage for a three-way shootout for the Rally America title.

It was the second victory of the year for Block and co-driver Alex Gelsomino. They battled back from an early deficit to the RockStar Energy Drink Rally Team of Tanner Foust and Chrissie Beavis, who had found themselves down on power and suffered a flat tire on their 2007 Subaru WRX STi.

In third place were Travis Pastrana and co-driver Christian Edstrom, who were fortunate to recover from an exciting off-road excursion on Day 1 with little more than a flat tire. Pastrana called it "the most fun I've ever had in a car in my whole life" when his 2006 Subaru WRX STi toppled over a cliff and landed 60 yards off the road in a field. The pair regained the course and lost little time to their opponents. It was at this rally in 2005 that Pastrana famously slid wide on a corner and rolled his top-spec Subaru seven and three-quarter times.

@Idontreallycare80 yeah, dont get me wrong, Travis is an amazingly gifted racer in any sport. It was just some food for thought.

[Idontreallycare80]

@DoomGoon138 yeah, im not a fan of NASCAR, but since they are all going pretty much the smae speed its really hard to pass, and not making any mistakes for at least 200 laps is almost impossible. but dont knock travis, everyone has their talents.

@DoomGoon138 ye he needs to be poor to win lol

[DoomGoon138]

To the people bashing on NASCAR heres a thought...

Travis Pastrana is winning if not placing on all the Rally events and yet he can't get a podium in NASCAR, maybe that tells you dumbasses theres more too it then go fast and go left! hahaha

@spartan11583 THANK YOU!!! Someone WITH SENSE!!

[frankisfunny2007]

rally's pointless... do you like that? I thought you wouldn't.... so stop bashing NASCAR.... even if it is boring.... I actually do like rally racing for the racing; not the crashes, none of that... if someone in rally does get injured, I get worried.... when he/she comes back, then that's what I call inspiration...
