Pro skateboarder turned Rallycross driver Bucky Lasek received his 20th X Games medal earlier this month after participating in an official X Games Rallycross race at the Circuit of Americas in Austin Texas. With the help of his Subaru WRX STI, Lasek came in second in the event, earning a silver medal, and proving his talents have no limits.
A rookie in the sport of Rallycross just two years ago, Lasek was beyond excited to receive a silver medal in the Rallycross competition - his best placement to date. He admitted that he worked harder than he ever has to receive the medal and credited his outstanding Subaru team for keeping his car up to code and race-ready. Within the early stages of the event, Lasek was accompanied by his fellow Subaru teammates, Travis Pastrana and Sverre Isachsen, but both encountered difficulties and were not able to make it to the Final. Lasek, however, placed third in the Semi Final and advanced to the Final, where he fought his way to the front of the pack. Beginning the race in the back row of the grid, Lasek had his work cut out for him, but he was up for the challenge and claimed the second place win, resulting in another victory for Team Subaru!
