We picked this one up courtesy of Redbull USA, they had a word with Rhys from his hospital bed. This is what Rhys Millen said on the accident and the New Year’s Challenge,

“After successfully landing the 360-degree back flip three times into the cardboard boxes in training, I am disappointed that our last jump ended in an accident. As I lay here in the hospital with three broken vertebrae in my neck and two compressed and broken vertebrae in my back, I am also disappointed that we cannot perform the 360-degree back flip at the Red Bull Experiment on New Year’s Eve, but I’m happy that I will be able to walk again. I look forward to watching Robbie Maddison do his 300-plus-foot motorcycle jump in Las Vegas.”
Get well soon Rhys!

Rhys Millen was gearing up for his New Year’s Event on ESPN called “New Year’s With No Limits” (where he was to flip a truck) when he had an accident in testing. Here is the event information if you didn’t know about it:
Redbull Experiment
New Years No Limits- ESPN

I spoke to some people close to Rhys Millen and they said during practice he overshot his foam landing box and the Redbull truck landed on it’s back bumper support. We don’t know the exact condition of Rhys Millen at this time but we all at  Wrecked Magazine want to wish him a speed recovery and hope he is ready to chase down a second championship next year at Formula D! We will try to keep you posted on the situation as more information comes to us!

I just was mailed a document from one of my favorite sources before we left out of town and inside was a 10-15 page document laying out the plans for Scion to enter Drifting in 2008. Yes, that is right……Scion is stepping up in a HUGE way in 2008! They are converting a Scion tC into a RWD drifting machine under the flagship of well known RSR. Here is the cover of the Scion Drifting packet.

The current known sponsors of the project are Scion, RSR, Toyo Tires, Enkei Wheels, and Sparco. Here are some other vehicle renderings in the packet.

Now later in the packet they announce a driver, Ken Gushi formally of Ford Racing. Apparently Scion is making some big strides taking away Ken Gushi from Ford. What will this car have in store for 2008? It will be an interesting project to keep your eye on but I feel Scion will do the project justice. Scion has played a huge role in the growth of sport compact and I feel they will make sure their Drifting program goes well. Here is a confirmation on Ken Gushi from the packet.

Don’t miss this car in Formula D for 2008! Rumor has it this car will make the Impot Tuner cover so keep your eye out! I think they should trash Import Tuner and go with Wrecked! Who’s with me?

Wrecked Magazine has returned with Issue 2. We made it all about the Am guys. John Yim sits down to chat about making the transition from the grassroots Drifting scene into the pro Formula D scene. We wrote about Pro Am hopefully Jerry Farabee who was unable to secure his FD license and smashed up his Nissan 240sx. We then covered the Formula D Pro Am and introduced you to the 20 new licensed drivers of Formula D for 2008. We also kept you up to date with a review of SEMA 2007 and a visit to Ziptied All Star Bash 2.
