No more Subaru for Ken Block

On a serious note, that Fiesta looks nasty, I’m interested to see how Block does. Should be a good season to watch.

Dave Mirra freestyle bmx 2 FTW!

I’m just hoping that the European coverage will actually mention him at all. Half the time they don’t even mention Matthew Wilson, and he’s the hometown favorite for the Brits.

I don’t really know much about Ken Block other than those well rehearsed videos. Does he have any chance in hell at WRC?

Honestly - not really for his first season. Anything’s possible, but new car, new rules, new events - it’s a steep learning curve.

I was there for the retelling…

It was pretty funny.

I don’t doubt the potential funniness of the story. Just thought the name dropping was lame…

In 2008. Last season was just Ford and Citroen (for factory teams).

Nice to see another US guy moving up in the rally world. I guess we’ll see what happens in a few years.

I wish ford would sell something ala sti or an evo.

they make some bad cars over seas. too bad we’ll never see them :frowning:

Just so strange to see…

very strange…they should have taken a different approach on design…The end of the subaru/ken block era should be the end of the black/white/green look. I guess with Monster on board there isn’t much choice though.

they could of totally went with a diff color scheme. there are a few diff monsters with colored cans right? i dont drink the stuff but i thought iv seen a red one b4

Black/White/Green were never Subaru colors before Block. Everyone else drives in Blue/Yellow/White for them.

I don’t associate that livery with Subaru, I associate it with Ken.

Wow, that is way NORTH! There is NOTHING around there. I will have to take a drive up there next time i am there.

I know…I just really got used to seeing that scheme on the STis

Awesome video of 100 acre woods rally shakedown:

That last bridge jump was awesome :tup:

are you not old enough to remember?

…or are you just referring to the Monster / DC / etc livery on “not a Subie”?
