Re: Proof that Ken Block can't race
Notwithstanding the implications of the article, Block was only displaced for the newly conceived, "Global RallyCross." Despite the clever marketing, this series so far has consists of the Europeans coming over here with their mature and experienced teams, and shit kicking the crap out of our nation’s finest. I am it will become more geographically competitive with time and resources and it’s encouraging to see companies like Ford, Hyundai, and BMW investing in this style of racing.
And since I guess this thread IS about Block, let’s see how he’s doing in the big leagues:
Rally Mexico – Ken block finishes 1:04:04.7 off the pace of the leader. There were some electrical issues with the car, and he was forced to retire on the first day and restart under super rally rules.
Waiting for a clean rally to get a good indication of where his skills are at.
