Sorry but as talented as Ken Block is (and let's face it he is a god compared to us normal drivers) he will never even approach the level of Colin McRae.

I enjoy the Block videos but I am sorry you are wrong.

ken block is not a world champion rally driver,he is more of a serious adrenalin junkie who has won the xgames numerous times along with the likes of travis pastrana(total nutta) and they make brilliant videos just like that 1 . has ken block sold out and gone to ford now (trator)

He'll be needing a new set of tyres after that. Some people just have too much money.

Awsome driver awsome car, Nuff said.. don't need to compare him to anyone, wouldnt be able to drive like that on an unknown forest track or iced up lane in sweden, but cant take away from him he'd win any indoor type spectator special stage with that car !!

No I'm not being serious hence the laughing faces , its about the 20th thread I've seen on the subject.
He is no where near the talent Colin McRae was , and never will be , there are loads of drivers that could do what he's doing , with a days practice me included. oh and about another 250 hp in my rally car
The big difference in rally driving is driving 100% committed blind off pacenotes , that is the hard part , and something the likes of McRae was very very good at .

Colin McRae was very exciting to watch with his no holds barred style of driving ( I only got my Scooby because of him lol ), and I loved his attitude towards driving, totally commited to winning, but there have been more successful rally drivers, and Ken Block is great at what he does but seems to struggle with Rally driving.

I find any of these drivers totally amazing to watch, no matter what their speciality is!!

KB is a show driver, not a go driver. He's in the WRC cos of his image not his ability.

What folks opinions on him being in wrc? He's never gonna win it but do people things is brought something beneficial to it?
