<a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/tanner+foust">Tanner Foust</a> took the top spot in the first-ever Rallycross competition in the United States this past weekend, piloting an all-wheel-drive Rockstar Engergy/Etnies <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/fiesta">Ford Fiesta</a>.<br />
<br />
Rallycross has existed around the world for years, but the sport officially <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/08/01/x-games-16-rally-offers-up-plenty-of-high-lows-and-double-gold/">debuted in America at the 2010 X Games</a>, where it was called Super Rally. Foust just happened to win gold in the inaugural X Games competition, too. Rallycross mixes circuit racing, off-road racing and rally competition on a short course, featuring jumps, hills, unbanked turns and quick transitions between different road surfaces. Two more Rallycross events are scheduled to take place this year, all of which will be held at <a href="http://www.njmotorsportspark.com/">New Jersey Motorsports Park</a>.<br />
<br />
Foust has been participating in European Rallycross events for quite some time, and he's also gained exposure by competing in Formula Drift and previous X Games competitions. What's more, Foust is one of the hosts for the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/08/07/video-first-trailer-for-u-s-top-gear/">U.S. version of <em>Top Gear</em></a>. Somebody get this guy a vacation.<br />
<br />
Look for the next U.S. Rallycross event to take place on October 2-3 and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/09/01/tanner-foust-wins-first-rallycar-rallycross-event-in-u-s-w-vid/#continued">follow the jump</a> for the full release about Foust's win along with a brief video of Tanner ripping down the front straight with his rear bumper flapping in the wind.<br />
