With the second X Games Rally Car Racing competition just a week away, NASCAR standout Boris Said and Rally America PGT points leader Pat Moro have been named as the “At Large” entries for the popular extreme-sports competition.

"I've been watching rally my whole life, and I think it's one of the most exciting sports in the world,” explained Said. “I'm really excited to see the track and even more excited to see the 70-foot jump I've been told about. My only regret is that I'll be doing the NASCAR Busch race in Montreal on Saturday and will miss practice, but I guess that’s why rally has the bravest co-drivers. I can't wait to get there and race.”

Said will drive a 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI prepared by Vermont SportsCar, which also fields entries for Subaru Rally Team USA drivers Travis Pastrana and Ken Block. Like his NASCAR entry, Said’s rally car will be No. 60.

Rally action at X Games 13 begins with practice on Aug. 2 and 3 and concludes with the Super Special final competition on Aug. 5 at 1:30 PDT. The final will be broadcast live on ABC.
