Travis is pretty good at persuading people, and I mean so am I.
[theme music]
My name is Travis Pastrana.
This is my wife.
This is where I’m going.
And this is my story.
Epic little day out at Travis Pastranaland running new stuff for MegaRamp.
Just one hellava good time.
[music]
So I’m out here helping Stevie X-Games medalist wad himself up
for the foam bunch pit for training.
Florida Georgia Line coming to visit Pastranaland.
They’re out back which I thought what they’re getting up to?
[music]
Aw, the Georgian Florida Line just showed up. It’s a good day.
I’m under strict orders not to buy a house here.
[music]
Did we come out here to get dirty? Yeah.
Did we come out here to get stuck? Hell yeah.
We’re making mud pie, baby.
We’re going to be serving up mud pie.
Stick one of these guys, to the face.
Gonna look great tonight.
Three, two, one, flip.
That’s a perfect back flip right there. Now the only way—
Is this really happening right now?
The only way you can mess this up is if you miss the pit.
[music]
Your head’s back, you feel like you’re upside down
but really your bike’s just kinda like this.
If your ass isn’t touching here, you’re doing something wrong.
TRAVIS: Volk a minute, volk a minute.
This is a warning.
[cheers]
What’s up? We don’t many of these at home but when we do get home,
we drink lots of Red Bull and go see concerts.
And uh…
I don't know that guy.
Oh we’re gonna see the Florida Georgia Line.
They came over and rode with us today.
They’re playing Ram’s Head in Baltimore.
[country music]
We've basically just spent the whole day with the band.
Making them do the things that we’re good at and
and now we’re here at Rams Horn live in Baltimore to watch them do what they're good at.
And you know, enjoy the concert.
[music]
[crowd cheering]
We’ve got the whole Roush Fenway crew and we’re testing at Miller Motorsports Park.
These guys have just been terrorizing some cars and some tires, having fun.
[tires squealing]
We’re racing together and we’re racing pretty hard.
We see where we lose and where we gain.
[music]
We’re playing musical cars.
We’re all fighting when they say five minute warning, everyone dives for a car.
So I just got out here earlier but everyone is just messing with each other.
This is Ricky.
This looks like his car right here. Alright.
Your car is right over there.
Oh, sorry, here you go.
TRAVIS: These cars are a little under powered from actual race cars but they handle similarly.
We’re working on race strategy, we’re working on lines.
There’s no better way to find out where you’re slow and where you’re quick than
with some of the best in the world.
[music]
Stenhouse over here, the car I had the time before,
that I completely wasted the tires that I spotted off the course.
[music]
I was pretty happy so I took his car and it still was decent but still not the quickest out there.
Take someone else’s -- Take Ryan’s next time.
I think I might want to try—
Ryan’s dad been leading.
Take Ryan’s...
Yeah, you guys are the grid.
[music]
We have broken four cars so far.
I haven’t hit anybody yet but I did break the radiator following someone through the gravel.
There’s probably more gravel on the track after we get done with it than off the track.
[music]
We got Trevor over here who sweats.
What? I don’t sweat.
[inaudible]
I mean, I'm just cruising around.
I was—I was just checking out the mountains just riding around sweating.
-Sweating. -Sweating.
Sweating, all the time.
Are you like those kids who sweat in, like, math class
who sweat when you think, or sweat when you drive?
No I don’t think much [laughter] but I do sweat a lot so I don’t know.
[engines roaring]
TRAVIS: So many great friends, great drivers.
The team of the Roush driver guys just putting this whole thing together was really cool.
So we’re all gonna red eye flight tonight.
Game on!
On the next episode of On Pace with Pastrana…
