That was Rob Dyrdek and his pal Big Black doing some of the driving (host of Rediculousness on MTV and action sports star). The other two guys (and on the most wanted poster) are the directors of the shoot.
They are all HPI products too (my pal from HPI is who originally sent me the link to post)...
Watch the behind the scenes video, it's really cool how they mention some classic chase scenese and want to pay homage to them with the crashes, fruit stand, etc.
