Me and my dad used to sit around the table watching videos of him driving laughing at how unbelievable he was, something I will always remember as a young lad wishing I could one day drive like that… 31 now and I can safely say I will never be able to but thanks for making me feel like I could as a young boy.

      @@grizzlynips to be fair, he does crash a bit (see gymkhana files) but part of that is due to him not spending enough practice time in the cars and the other part is him not having good references for risky manoeuvres. he practically learns the cars as they shoot. the team say he often does nail it on the first take but with risky manoeuvres you're talking knife's edge accuracy which is practically impossible all the time. I remember in the Texas shoot for gymkhana 10 he had to go under a building and the gap was something like 10 inches longer than his truck. he got it on the third attempt after two small ish crashes, one broke the wheel and the other broke the front bumper and wing assembly. tbh with these kind of stunts i think that's quite reasonable. at 5:25 you can see the stack of rocks he made as a reference. the whole team including him thought he'd over done it and was gonna go over the edge

    I was fortunate enough to get to visit Pikes Peak in the summer of 2021. I had seen this video back in 2019 when I was a few months shy of graduating high school, so to actually be there in person and see and drive that road for myself was a dream come true. I'll never forget that experience. It all inspired me to look more into high performance cars, and what it takes to make something like this and what it takes to drive it as well. I'm now in trade school, learning to work on cars and maybe even have a passion project car of my own. To hear the news of his untimely departure from this earth has deeply saddened me and many other people. Ken Block might not have known it, but he was a true inspiration to people far and wide besides myself to pursue the field of the automotive industry and to discover something we came to love.
    To Ken, I thank you for showing not just me but the world your side of what cars can be, and how they can perform outside of just racing or daily driving. Your level of creativity and ingenuity will never be able to be replaced.
    RIP Ken Block

      @@riccardosartori3822 they have insane traction! What are you talking about. He’s sponsored by toyo tires and is using a premium set, that also happen to be very thick. The car just has too much power for the wheels to handle, especially when he’s purposely sliding it around. Also the car has basically no spoilers, lips or aero of any kind (not that it matters at 14000ft). As for how he can control it? He’s practiced drifting for 100s, possibly 1000s of hours. He knows that car like the back of his hand. He’s one the most talented drifters in the world! And Definitely one of the best known.

    that car needs 1400hp to lug around that massive sack Ken block has. Must have a hole cutout in his racing seat to put them bad boys.

    Ret in piece Ken block. For the past 5-6 years you have been a massive influence on me. You became my favourite driver of all time. It breaks my heart for the block family. Ken Block is one of the greatest to ever do it and my favourite driver of all time. The gods needed a driver. They got the best one.

    The way hit hit the dirt on Colin's corner was one of the best things I have ever seen. Dirt flying up, but still saves it! I've watched cars roll of right there, some didn't make it. Just shows this man's raw skill. Rest in peace Ken, you'll be missed by many
