Monster Energy’s Johnny Greaves ‘Leap of Faith’ World Record Truck Jump
What began as a relatively calm morning in the southern California foothills just outside San Diego literally became the stuff Guinness Book of World Records are made of when Monster Energys Johnny Greaves came roaring down a dirt road at 105 mile per hour and launched his 3800-pound, 800-horsepower TORC off-road PRO 2WD Toyota through the air over the length of an NFL football field. Landing quite peacefully some 301-feet later despite the overall violent nature of the jump. Greaves looped back around and was met by his Monster Energy/Toyota Motorsports team and off-road racing teammate McGrath. He made it look good, made it look easy. But that jump was frickin huge, said McGrath. With a spectrum of measuring and surveying equipment on hand, Greaves added more than 100 feet to the previous 2WD distance truck jumping record of 193-feet set last year. I was a little bit nervous, Greaves admitted the day of the jump. I woke up and I was going to go ride down there and look at the ramp and talk about what we need to do, but my brother was already in Jeremys horse barn tearing the truck apart and getting the gearing right and I was like, All right, its on! With a gap of 200 feet (between the take-off and landing peaks), Greaves knew anything below 100 mph on the in-run would cause him to auger into the face of the landing. But with some spot-on mathematical calculations provided by his crew, and, believe-it-or-not, some tips on flying a truck like a dirt bike from McGrath …

2011 LSPR SS 13 # 968 Brianne Corn / Jeremy Rowland
This is SS 13. The stage directly after the one with the KICK. I bungy corded the exhaust to the bottom of the car after the KICK but it did not hold. I was a little timid at first due to the bent / twisted strut but I start to hit my stride towards the end of the stage. We finished this stage 6th overall and 1st in class with only open class cars ahead of us and a couple of them behind us. This was one of my all time favorite stages. I think it appropriate that it was the last stage (we ran all day 2 stages twice) of the last rally of the year. Press on Regardless.
