X Games Rally Car Racing
Thrills, chills and spills are expected by excited audiences at the 16th annual X Games in downtown Los Angeles
Competing at the X Games for the first time is TeamBFG member and two-time Formula Drift champion Samuel Hubinette. While Hubinette is not a regular on the rally scene in the U.S., he began rallying at the age of 16 at a junior Rallycross in his home country of Sweden. Hubinette will pilot a top-spec Mitsubishi Evolution with BFGoodrich g-Force Rally tires built by rally veteran and teammate Andrew Comrie-Picard, himself a four-time X Games competitor and 2009 North American Rally Champion.
"The location of the X Games Rally competition has changed (from Home Depot Center to Los Angeles Coliseum), the track surface has changed and a handful of drivers have changed, but one thing that has remained the same is the team's choice of tires," added Kukainis. "The top teams continue to choose BFGoodrich tires for their grip on the tarmac and gravel surfaces."
The X Games Rally Car Racing and SuperRally will take place at the Los Angeles Coliseum on Saturday, July 31. Both will be aired live on ESPN on Saturday at 4 p.m. Pacific. Please check local listings for repeat airdates and times.
