Watch & enjoy

If you don't like this video you shouldn't own a FR-S/BRZ.

Yeah, he makes it seem too easy. Also, I like the sound of straight cut gears but that trans. is a little too loud.

This guy/guys have the balls twice the size of Ken block! You might think that the smoke and screeching sound are from the rear tires. But in fact, the smoke and the screeching sound are both from his gigantic testicles scraping off the asphalt while taming a car that wants to kill him!

You might think that that the red Porsche @2 seconds into the video are just a one time mistake going sideways through Eau Rouge...

...but no its his driving style!

The guy in the last video is really working that steering wheel... I've heard 911s from that period can be a handful however he definitely has no problem in the passing department. Nice vids

They called those the widowmakers for a reason. That rear end would come out and due to the weight of the engine it would cause a pendulum reaction. Essentially the point of no return.

Take any rally car driver in the WRC, give them 10 takes to get a trick/corner right and you'll get that same Ken Block video. He does good videos, but when it comes to actual racing hes not that good in comparison to other pro rally drivers.

Thanks for the initial video!!

He's great at promoting the sport and displaying his sponsors/company, but as mentioned above he is far from great. Rallying is still kinda new to the States, so we need more time to develop. Watch a European rally driver in comparison to an American driver and you will see a big difference. The lines and smoothness are very different.
