- To getbiggers who aren't familiar with him: He made a huge name for himself by doing donuts, drifts and jumps in cars 15 or so years ago. His lame (to me) youtube vids went viral. I think he got a contract with Monster Energy at that time and was later on a Top Gear episode or three... Huge name in the auto world.



As for what I personally think and have to say about him..

- Yes! YYYESSS!!!!! My GOD I couldn't stand him and his fucking fanboys who acted like he was the GOAT driver! Pissing me off for 15 fucking years ffs!

"B-but bro, did you see those donuts he done where he was missing the barriers by inches" ::)

My grandma could do half the shit he done.

He was just ANOTHER overhyped rich dude (who'd have camera crews recording him in super slo-mo doing donuts/drifts/stunts in cars which were perfectly built for doing just that on closed roads... shit I've done ON THE STREET in MY car(s) which I BUILT and AREN'T RICH...)
I can't imagine the crazy and epic shit I'd have done in cars if I were in his shoes. Fast & The Furious type shit. I'd be called God by all his pathetic little fanboys. Hell, I'd be called a God by them even now if I had slo-mo footage of everything I've done in cars and on bikes.
If Ken wasn't rich and drove his own daily driver which he built he wouldn't have the balls to do a 10th of what I've done on the streets.

(NO BHANKS)

I'd imagine it's pretty fucking easy to do everything he done (and a very easy way for you to push the limits, become a better driver...)  when you're filthy rich, don't give a fuck if you hit your car, have a camera crew to record you all day drifting and saving your best drifts/donuts and deleting all your fuckups...


Hell.. they even made Nicolas Cage look like the GOAT driver in Gone In 60 Seconds.


FUCK Ken Block (and every other overrated rich kunt like him who woudn't be shit without money)!
Wasn't he self made from starting DC shoes? He earned all the money

Yes.

He created an entire sub-culture in the racing community. Along with Travis Pastrana.

Legit legend and nice person all around.

He started the trend.

Created his own brand.

Died doing what he loved.

I've spent my entire life in motorsports, never heard anyone badmouth him.

His driving skills are top of the world.

I didn’t realize who he was until someone mentioned his company.

I heard him on Tim Ferris’ podcast.

Seemed like a cool guy from what I remember.

Maybe if he never becomes rich he lives a normal life and this never happens.
