    The pilot is mad, the co-pilot is mad, the car is madness. Everything's in perfect harmony.
    Great video!

      I couldn't've (I made that word up) said it better myself or agreed with you more.
      Obviously the co-pilot is a very necessary and important part of the team, but Jesus Christ he's annoying to listen to.
      I love watching this type of racing; but like all forms of auto racing I much prefer viewing it through the dash cam, because I think it really shows you just how good these drivers are.
      Now that I've informed and educated all of you on the finer points of auto racing, by graciously sharing my in-depth and highly accurate analysis and opinions (both of them 😝), it is now time for me to move into the background and let those less knowledgeable than I take these new found insights I've provided and...
      ... figure the rest of it out by your fucking selves 😋.

    • @nikodemdyzma9330
      @nikodemdyzma9330 Před 6 lety +6

      Gymkana is NOT rallying mate...Rallying require skill and kind of sophisticated taste. Block is homely guy and can NOT adjust and deal with rally stages but he is very well in showing off on well known small tracks so maybe RC but rally is to much for Block.

    • @samsonian
      @samsonian Před 6 lety +5

      I'm pretty sure Ken would admit he is not the BEST driver; he's good but it's a rare thing for an American to be able to compete in a sport that is quite poorly covered here. Just remember, Ken Block got started in the skate shoes market, was into skateboarding, snowboarding and only after he had some scratch did he really get into racing cars.
      I'm not a fanboy but I do admire the guy; how many other yanks buy and import RS200s, Escort MkII's among many others (Subarus, other Fords who he drives for now) so he can fully kit them up for racing or high-end hooning in spare time. Look at it this way: Block wasn't trying to make a commercial of what an awesome driver he is; he's making a piece of art that blends the motorsport, x-games skate culture and great videography and production work that brings a TON of money into the sport of rallying/rallycross.
