The New Year's Eve stunt show theatrics will continue in 2010 as Travis Pastrana plans to jump a rally car from a Long Beach pier onto a floating barge. The stunt is being billed as the world's longest jump in a rally car and will span roughly 250 feet of open water.

Pastrana told the Associated Press, ""Our goal is to make this as authentic as possible. I want to use a really close-to-production Subaru, not some super high-tech ramp or super high-tech car. Just a full-on, old-school stunt. And definitely I want to drive out of it, too."
