The referenced post has been removed.


Of marketing yes, of driving....ehh....no.



Sébastien Loeb wouldn't even allow Block to touch his right testicle and that's not just because he is French and won the WRC for 9 consecutive years, after which he decided it got boring to win, now he just does racing stuff for fun and shits and giggles, such as murdering the Pikes Peak record by 1:30 minutes, or making Block look like a knob.

hilarious how in that video it looks like everyone, especially block, is pushing their car to the edge and driving like maniacs. Meanwhile Loeb is just cruising.

amazing driving in these videos, but it's proof that block can only handle it if he designs the course, and has dozens of attempts at every maneuver.

Oh for the love of fuck will you shut the hell up? I realize it's Monday- armchair primetime- but honestly? That's fucking lame and I do mean . I honestly hate how no matter what someone does- there will always be that guy who's just not satisfied until he talks shit and says someone else is better.


WHO GIVES A FUCK?

Oh, that's right- you and Lawrence. Congrats dude, you can't enjoy a sick video because you're too fucking pertinent. Way to go!

Lol. Will you guys get over yourselves?? I honestly hate how no matter what someone does- there will always be that ONE FUCKING GUY who's just not satisfied until he talks shit about it and says someone else is better because X. Y and Z... Even though the topic was the plain-old rad-for-no-reason-other-than-being-rad video in the OP and that other clip was from a random cherry picked rally.


Sometimes I have to wonder how much more enjoyment people get out of not enjoying something just for the sake of tearing it down. You'd think it would be counter intuitive but apparently it's a thing that people really enjoy. I personally don't get it.

I honestly think I'm the worst at working this website out of everyone. It told me I didn't have permission, lol... No idea how it posted anyways. I fucking suck. Sebastian Loeb would point and laugh.

I don't think he is capable of showing emotions. He is French after all.

At least you can point and laugh at him for being a manlet.

I still wouldn't haha... I fucking love him- but that wasn't the point of this thread at all. It was more of a "Hey, wanna see a sweet car get beaten mercilessly while cops watch?" Which is absolutely it's own reason in case you were wondering.

It's crazy how fast he shifts gears and how tight the car drifts, along how tight the car does donuts.

Also lol at Block doing donuts around the doughnut shop, I see what you did there, Ken Block.

It's pretty cool, but I like this one better. Who cares about precision when you can just jump over everything?

Block is terribad at racing. He is good at showy drift shit but in all honesty.... its pretty much figure skating for cars.

2 Thumbs down.

Yea bro you know him???

That trophy truck vid is also insanely badass. Two totally different styles of driving though. I gotta give it to block though...looks way harder I bet he could transition into a trophy truck pretty easily

Machine and man are both fueled by and made with complete madness, and DAMN do they make it look good.

I want his babies, not Block necessarily, I really just hope the car reproduces and I can buy its pup.

i dunno. The first one I was like woah! Neat! Then the second one came out and I was like Wow! Next Level! Then 3 and I was like ok... these videos are kinda limited in their subject manner.

I guess this one was a lil better because of the pony but still.. the whole crazy drifting thing gets pretty boring after a while. Thats just me tho..

Personally, I thought the first Recoil was much sicker. To much slow motion for me in #2.
