but what i don't get is why he can control the car semi free style but when it comes to rally he isn't doing so well. part of me wants to see it is him trying to understand his map guy who has a very accent.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

To chi:

In rally there is no "take two" or post editing. Give me an hour of footage and iMovie and I'll deliver a 60 second video of your Honda looking like your block. Well the car anyway .

I like what your saying, Block is not the best rally driver by any standard. I still think Pastrana should be in WRC over ken Block.
