Ken Block is a hack and an amateur.

  • First 5 minutes of the 7 minute vid is him crapping on about the car, there's only 2 minutes of actual footage
  • The car is only used on a purpose built track with heaps of room (like most of his vids - or portable plastic barriers that don't hurt when you hit them)
  • Judging by the tyre marks on the road he's had about 16 goes at each corner before getting a keeper (all of his vids are like this - just look at every corner of every KB video)

May I suggest you skip that video and watch a couple of Ryan Tuerck's instead.

  • Forest road, no soft safety barriers
  • Most corners are virgin lines, or at most 1 previous (faint) set on the ground that could easily be someone else's. This basically means he made ONE run for the footage.

  • No safety barriers
  • Most corners are virgins, until the tandem part of the vid where you can tell they had a couple of practice goes

  • 1 or 2 previous sets in parts but still 14 less than old mate Ken.

Ryan can f**king drive!

It's likely that was a press day where he took lots of people for a spin in his car, hence lots of marks.

EDIT: Oh, and I'm sure those vids you posted are vids of the first ever time that guy drove those roads....

Double edit: I find the Hoonigan stickers on Ryan Turek's car ironic. Hoonigan is literally Ken Block's brand.

I liked Off Seasons Two - but the poor S13 almost rattled itself to death! Also, too many 'arty' shots that do the driving no justice at all. I did like the chase car shots though.

FRS one is really cool.

I don't think there is much mustang left in that car. Pushrod suspension. It has more in common with a pargani zonda. Safe to say the V8 would be a custom billet block based motor too. Resembling the dimensions of another OEM manufacturer in some dimensions only. Purpose built go-fast toy !
