Apparently this guy is terrible at rally racing but phenomenal at whatever this is. I thought at least one person on here would appreciate this.

well, i wouldn't call the dude terrible. Ken Block is like a real life video game.

He tests all of his jumps out on motorcycles first, too, before he hits them in the car.

Double win.

I don't think I could do any of this in a video game with all of the cheat codes. Mind blowing.

Calling that thing a Ford Fiesta is just stupid.
Apart from some bits of the body, lights and dash, the parts commonality seems to be about equal to the parts commonality between a Stratocaster and a Stradivarius. Yeah, the shape is similar, and both are made from wood, with strings on.

He is not terrible, in fact he's pretty good for a shoe salesman! If you cared to know you would check the facts before you repeat something you heard somewhere.

And it is Fiesta!

All I know is that he gets paid lots and lots of money to travel around the world and drive really fast cars, really fast.

I would gladly suck that bad at anything!

I don't know... finishing only one of your last 6 races doesn't sound AMAZING to me. but I'm not a rally fanboy, maybe that is a stellar ratio.

I don't really give a shit if he is the best ever or a total dud. This video is badass. I would gladly trade him jobs. His life sounds fucking rad.

Also MATPOC I got this for you;

it should take care of the;

Yeah Mag, you clever boy, Vagisil reply is such a clever thing, I don't think I can ever top that! Oh wait, let me google some images and post them in the thread in which I just made some dumb statements, posting images will add some credibility!

Have you ever tried to compete against the best of the best?? (You ever tried to compete in anything other than pissing contests?) You can say you suck at anything if you don't get in top 10 in the world! I don't need Wikipedia since I happen to know a thing or two about this guy, but you follow your own link you would know that Ken had earned rookie of the year and runner up in several US championships, that would hardly qualify as "SUCKS". Apparently he's taking his time getting used to WRC but last weeks finish in Spain shows some promise, so before you pass your expert opinion on something you hardly have a clue about, follow your own link, read up and it might make you a better man or at least prevent another episode of foot in mouth disease!

I don't think you even bothered to read the fucking wiki page, he started 6 WRC events of which he finished 4, not bad for a first timer. Not so great for you, passing your opinions as facts and then posting the link that proves you wrong, Foot on Mouth!

you two get a room.

Ken Block is 23rd out of 25 driver at the WRC 2010 championship.
Let's say his 2010 campaign wasn't that good even if the general level is slightly higher than the average drivers abilities.

Point taken, had few drinks last night.

He only competed in 6 out of 12 events this year

I'm not a "fan boy" just trying to show my point of view, if he's in the same place next year after a full season I will be the first one to say that he should stick with selling shoes and making gymkhana videos.

Well... Since I don't know the contextual implications of using the word 'apparently' to disassociate myself from being set to 'expert' status. Also, since I am significantly more likely to pick a rally car up and carry it around than get into one and do something competent, I wouldn't even remotely imply my expertise in this area. I am just a humble man, a humble man who wanted to share a fun youtube video on an open message board with a bunch of oversensitive bikers, and once again the villainy of tyrants and my inability to weather the slings and arrows... Whatever. I put up a video. I wanted to share. I claim victory in the battle of who could care less.

Winter is back baby.

I willingly admit... I have truly been bested. MATPOC is basically better that me in every way. In response to this and due to my overwhelming lack of 'credibility' I have googled a picture of a pretty pony. Here you go;

Yeah... it has a brush and everything.

LOOK AT THE BRUSH!!! IT IS FUCKING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

DEAR GOD, WHY CAN'T EVERYTHING BE THIS AMAZING!!!
