From the world of rally racing comes the news that Travis Pastrana took home first place in the Oregon Trail rally this weekend up in Portland.
The news keeps Pastrana's streak of never having lost anything, ever*, alive and in tact, and also means he holds a commanding lead in the overall standings after four of nine races.
Alos in rally news, Dave Mirra is doing quite well in his inaugural season on the Rally America circuit, sitting pretty in seventh place, a scant three points behind Ken Block who has been doing this for a while now.
From Portland, Rally America
blows off to the Susquehannock Trail rally, June 5-6, in lovely Wellsboro, PA.

*Not entirely true, he did not finish in the second race of this Rally America season, and presumably has lost something at some point in time before that as well.
PS- A quick note to the Rally America folk: you might do a lot better promoting your sport here if you allowed people to embed your race videos, as I am not allowed to do.
