RIP Ken Block

Just learned that Ken Block of Gymkhana fame passed away due to a snow mobile accident last January 2. I first encountered him when I watched Gymkhana 3 at a DC Shoes in Eastwood a long time ago. I stopped watching after Gymkhana 4 but he and his driving panache definitely left a lasting impression.

Completed downloading and watching all three Ken Block Gymkhana videos (Watch them here, here, and here). I actually saw the third one first, at a DC Shoes in Eastwood. Ken Block and his Monster Energy Ford Fiesta are awesome! Makes you wanna go get a Ford Fiesta yourself. Now if only there’s a Wide Body Kit and the R2 Rally Kit here.
