    I saw Ken drive in Vegas last summer. He's EVERY bit as good as this video. I guarantee this video was all shot in one take...he nails it perfectly every time. He's driving for Ford now in a 650HP Fiesta!

    Pffft. Ken Block is a no-talent hack. He absolutely does NOT shoot that in one take. That is very well known. And the Fiesta is not 650hp, sorry.

    Great video!

    From an article on FordMuscle.com:

    "Built by Olsbergs Motorsport Evolution (MSE), the 2,425-pound Gymkhana THREE Fiesta sports a purpose-built Olsbergs engine capable of up to 850 brake horsepower, but is restricted to
    650 horsepower to give Block the torque band needed to control the car. Equipped with an Olsbergs MSE Maktrak (magnesium) six-speed paddle-shift sequential transmission, it is capable of 660 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,000 rpm and needs a mere 1.9 seconds to go from 0 to 60 mph."

    Huh, I didn't know the Gymkhana car was different than the WRC version.

    Still, he can't drive. Last in the WRC class in Sweden, beat out by a couple kids in Production cars.
