ken block
I dont realy like Ken Block in the wrc, Everybody keeps on going on like he is god or a legend. He is only good at Gymkhana but he crashes quite a bit but who cares What are your views about him ?

if you listen to him himself he's a good guy, really down to earth, and he is doing ok in the WRC, considering its his first season. he's definitely not a disgrace to ford
its funny you compare him to McRea.... have you ever seen how he did in his first season....

I cant stand Ken Block, Everybody keeps on going on like he is god or a legend. He is only good at Gymkhana hes not good in the wrc at all, He is a disgrace to ford, im glad they dont trust him with the Focus if he if he cant keep the Fiesta on the track and wrecking it what the hell is he going to do to the focus. Hes never gonna be as good as Colin McRae, Jarri-Matti Latvala, Ari Vatanen, Sébastien Loeb, Richard Burns and all the other rally legends. What are your views about him ?
But what the fuck would he know?

dont think anyone is questioning his talent behind the wheel in general chip, its pretty evident he can drive his arse off, but is he one of the top drivers in his feild, and would/could, he compete for the WRC with the likes of loeb ?. personally, i think if he was in a competative car, and given the chance, he would be somewhere near. but like ginge said, he looks like he is in it for the fun and adrenaline rush, infact, i dont even know if he is that hungry for success, or just wants to make a very good living, from fucking around in very quick, and expensive cars, because come on, who wouldnt love that job

He is new to WRC, he'll take time to learn the formula after so long doing similar but not identical genres of driving.
If he had been JWRC first etc and had a different younger life he'd probably be a real championship contender by now, he has the raw talent he just lacks relevant experience.
Cant see why everyone loves to hate him so much TBH, he seems like a genuinely nice guy, a total petrolhead and one hell of a driver.

Why are people so down on Block? Is it a jealousy thing?
Heard some absolute bollocks about him. Of course his vids are edited well, but he still did the driving. They just shot them a few times and edited them to make some car porn for people the world over to wank over. Is there anything wrong with that?
I like him, think he has talent and he is totally livin' the dream.

and that my freind, you have to respect. as i said, who wouldnt want his job. getting paid handsomely, to push very quick and expensive cars, that only a handful of people in the world get to drive, to there limit and beyond, all over the world. sounds like a job we would all kill for

You said you can't stand him and that he is a disgrace.
I'm sure you'd be much better. But besides that. Please run off the list of "legends" who have been amazing in thier first proper crack at WRC.
Please do.
You are naming drivers who all have over ten years at the top, and spent their early years rally driving on smaller levels.
Fella has a lot of pressure and spotlight on him and i think he is doing well and entertaining.

Jealous, who cares if he inst the worlds greatest wrc driver, him deciding one day "i know i will dick about in a car and put it on the tinterwebz"
has made him an almost overnight sensation his buisness savvy has led him to be such a great promotion tool that ford have let him loose for them in the wrc, just so they can sell a few extra fez's stateside,
he has done well for himself, but i want to beable to fly my mates out to abandoned airfeilds/autodromes etc around the world to dick about with an insane nuttermobile and just have a laugh making a fook load of cash and getting all the energy drink i can handle,
i dont know how he can cope
