That video is a remake/tribute/whatever of Ari Vatanen’s “climb dance” video from 1990. Both are great video’s but Ari’s is far better.

PS. Ari for FIA president in October.

Ken Block is a great ‘show’ driver…but I think ppl forgets when it comes to racing he hasn’t won a whole lot.

wouldnt you like to see. I really doubt it. It’s not like its that guys first time, im sure he knows the track inside and out. So he should be fuckin hammering it, i wouldnt make a video of my first run around a track. so give Mr. Block some time to learn it and i’m sure he wouldnt be such a pussy

lol you’re basing it off these TWO videos he has out that he clearly does multiple tries at each obstacle in the videos and they edit the best attempts into it to make it a cool video. I doubttttt Ken Block would be pushing much harder, if any at all, towards the top of Pikes Peak where if you fall off, it’s what? 14,000+ ft high?

The two guys in that 800hp Ford Fiesta(that makes Ken Blocks queer Subaru look “vag”) were hardly being “vag” as they clearly race RallyCross professionally.
