Why did I just watch that? Horrible video, horrible idea. Look, people aren't going to buy that stuff because it's being shoved in their faces along with rappers and images of paint. No, they'll buy the gear because of the OMFG-awesomesauce-driving being done by the guy promoting the gear... which isn't what's happening in this video at all.

In short: FAIL!

I knew bout this vid for long time... I didn't want to post it (here even though it's dying here) cuz it's ridiculously lame vid!

It's still a part 1... so I'm guessing there gonna be part 2. I'm praying that Ken Block gonna say "F'ck u Ford, I'm going back to Subaru!" and buy 2011 STI (Sedan) and make hella awesome Gymkhana 4 or part 2 or whatever.

...til then Ken Block's fans are dropping really fast

There is suppose to be a part 2 and 3. Hopefully he can salvage something in those videos. This one really is horrible. I've never really understood how this is actual gymkhana? I've seen videos of gymkhana meets and they usually take place in a small parking lot with people going up against each other on a very small and technical course not getting above 40 mph.

And (most importantly) you're supposed to do the course on a single run. Block's previous vids were several runs compiled together. While entertaining, those vids lost points in my book in regards to being true gymkhana.

Example: One of my favorite vids on youtube
