Ken Block

Most of you have probably know or heard about Ken Block, if not then at least seen the unique designs on his cars. For those of you who have no idea who he is, he's a rally driver and one of the reasons hes become so famous is due to his gymkhana videos, check them out below.
They're quite long though so if you don't have much time I recommend 3 and 4, they get progressively better in my opinion. A lot of people don't like the fact he ditched Subarus for Fords, but the Fiesta he drives now is MUCH faster and lighter than his Imprezas, not to mention the shorter wheel base which lets him perform even more impressive stunts/drifts.

• Gymkhana 1
• Gymkhana 2
• Gymkhana 3
• Gymkhana 4

Now he may not be the best rally driver, but he sure does know how to pull off some stunts and his videos have great entertainment value. In fact, Ken is one of the main reasons I got into Dirt 3, which lets you have a go at his Gymkhana tricks yourself with his car.
His latest car is very impressive though, most rally drivers require two cars for the parts of rallying, Stage rally and Rallycross. Ken's new car, the 'The Hybrid Function Hoon Vehicle' is good for both the rally parts including Gymkhana as well! Minor adjustments need to made to the car, but Ken is essentially still in the same car. Check out the promotional video.


Now back to the reason I even made this post, check out my hot wheels find :)

It's nowhere near a perfect replica, but for a £1 its pretty good! If only they put the white stripe in the alloys...
