pretty sweet. personally i liked the 1st one the best of them all but this is pretty dope.
time to go break my subaru.
 
hard to say i guess. some of the stuff requires some skill i assume but if you had a while to mess around with it. would not be able to go that fast though. when he is right against the wall going full speed..yep..
 
dam. this made me think of if an alley oop turn could work... like be turning left on the road but steer the car right? around a hairpin of course..
 
that was sick. just watched it earlier.
the cool kids video he did as part 1 was kinda cool

and that is why Ken Block kicks ass.

The only thing I dislike about this is all the advertising. If you watch the first Gymkhana it is just about the driving. Now Ken has all these sponsors that get thrown in your face while he is driving.
 
all that advertising allows him to afford things like renting out a track like that to do a movie like this, build that $200k+ car, not to mention all the filming equipment and labour wages.
i dont think many people could drive that car like that...you would need a pretty good understanding of how the car acts...he just makes it look easy.
that being said he has a lonngggg way to go on his world rally driving to be considered one of the best in the world. he is still one hell of a gymkhana driver tho.
 
that poor rev limiter. oh ya, in the real world, and without numerous takes. in a field of his peers. ken ain't all that great

haha...its one thing is rally skills but he ispretty dam good at ghymkana. Though i have to say this one was not nearly as good as the last one. Nothing was really to originaly though some of the drifts on the high wall was pretty sick looking
 
he is a talented driver for sure, but in a field of his peers it kinda puts things back into reality. but its all relative right?
 
Fuck the Fiesta, goddamn that pisses me off. But that was pretty cool. TP is a better rally-er though!
 
dude he never claims to be on the same level as them. really, he's just getting into the circuit and only doing certain events.
anyways, sucks DC got bought and no more mountain lab :(
 
whats with all the anti-ford pro-subaru nonsense going on? the ford slays at what it does.
 
pretty badass. not feeling the ford either though.

watching videos like this is why i no longer have a car. you cannot rally a subie wagon, even if it is turbo 5 speed. at least i cant obviously.
 
i believe so. you could see there were clearly paddle shifters, and there was a shot of his feet which revealed a clutch, so ya.
 
Hahah its hilarious, i was thinking through the video "i wonder what happens when his tires run out" then he just slayed them to the rim at the end, epic.
 
good catch..its actually whats known as a dogbox which allows very very fast shifting
It still needs to have a clutch depressed to downshift, but htey work without a clutch on upshift by cutting the ignition (milliseconds) then disengaging the tranny and allowing a shift

if you've ever watched any rally clips you might assume the 'chirping' was the bov but its actually the transmission
