The “IZOD Presents Hot Wheels Fearless at the 500” was a sideshow at the recent 100th running of the Indianapolis 500. The goal: break the existing ramp-to-ramp car jump record on a life-size Hot Wheels V-Drop track.
Team Hot Wheels Yellow Driver, a secret until after the leap, was none other than Tanner Foust, a three-time X Games gold medalist, two-time Formula Drift champion, current Global RallyCross points leader and the first American ever to win a round of the FIA European Rallycross championship. The feat was a year in the planning with Foust training for three months to perfect the jump.
