But now that he is gone it makes you really think that this dude was a absolute fuckin legend in all motorsports... there ain't one person that comes close to being on Kens level. Sad to think we will never see him rip these insane drifts. Now all we can do is leave his old videos on repeat while thinking that there won't be anymore...

    Fun fact: The red button on top of the hand brake of the Hoonicorn locks the center differential. This is used to block all four wheels when pulling the handbrake. When the button isn't pressed, the handbrake only brakes, and thus locks, the rear wheels, as usual.

    Anyone else on a Ken Block binge? I'm still in utter disbelief that this legend is gone. Ken was the one who opened up my eyes to the world of badass driving and Rallying (like many of us here), and rewatching these cuts got me thinking of the insane standards and foundation that Ken has laid for the world of rallying, racing and drifting. Another legend taken way too soon. So so sad.

    The meticulous planning and organisation it took to orchestrate this is a credit to the Producers of Top Gear, and all of those working for the BBC who were involved in the special. This sequence is the stuff of movies, and it would never have been possible had it not been for a huge amount of planning. The fact Ken and his immense skill and ability are no longer with us is devastating, and it is only through the production of works like this that you can truly appreciate his lifelong ability for vehicle control. Rest well Ken Block, your talent is sorely missed.
