I didn't like this one as much as some of the others he's done. Especially the San Francisco and shipping yard episodes

Agreed. I think they've gone downhill since the first. How many donuts is enough. We get it, you can do donuts

Ok Ken, we have a perimeter of exotic cop cars. Do donuts inside.
Then go to the Dubai Fountain, do donuts in front of it.
Find a 2 wheeling truck. Do donuts around him
Drive to a government building. Do donuts.
etc etc.


Didn't even notice until you said something

That's all they ever are.. they advertised this as having the Focus RS in it.. I mean it does.. it's there twice.. doing nothing. I liked the Raptor up on two wheels more than anything Ken Block did.

Lol seriously. Just an 8 minute video of donuts.

I still laugh at the time Sebastian Loeb came over here and spanked his ass at the X-Games.

So this is what skill in the rally world looks like. Cool. Will join the circuit next season and perform with mediocrity.

I wonder... for those that complain about the lack of skill, what can be done that is better than what's already been done?

let's see him actually run on a rally stage.

no room for donuts there.

If not that, then show more consistency here in dubai it was more obvious then ever that it was shot in many different locations at different time

Apparently illegal street racing is a gateway crime that leads into becoming a world-renowned criminal capable of successfully pulling off multi-million dollar heists. Which, of course, eventually leads to becoming a vigilante superhero.
