Rhys Millen to Jump from 2007 into 2008

December 9th, 2007 - Geoffrey Chandler

In non-drifting news, it appears that Rhys Millen has convinced the crazy marketing fellows over at Red Bull to fund a Guinness World Record attempt.

“Maddison, a freestyle motocross star from Australia, will attempt to jump the length of a football field (more than 300 feet) to set a new motorcycle distance jumping world record. Millen, a champion drifter and movie stunt driver hailing from New Zealand, will attempt the first-ever backflip of an off-road racing truck. Representatives from the Guinness Book of World Records will be in attendance to validate each jump.”

A site setup for the event will be launching after 12/13 at www.newyearnolimits.com.
