Ken Block, Travis Pastrana and Dave Mirra are comming to my area for the Lake Superior Pro Rally. And Ken Block Stopped in at one of our local dealers and i got to meet him. And take a ride in his 530whp suburu from the gymkhana taining video. Got to do a full boost launch, and let me tell you i thought my neck was broken i couldnt even reach forward to touch the dash. Heres a couple photos from earlier.

That's the cool thing about a lot of the rally racers, they're normal people. When Block, Mirra and Pastrana are up here they go out to the bars with everyone else and will often stop in on random house parties. Well, Mirra and Pastrana have a little bit of an ego but they're still a lot nicer than some of the celebrities you'd meet.

The launch was so breath taking. Felt like the ride superman actually. Pulled the E-Brake and came to a stop around the other side of his trailer. Man this guys got some control. Prob one of the best rides of my life. Yeah hes normal, down to earth, really enjoyed talking to him and he actually knows his stuff about cars. Hes not just a driver he also works on his cars back at the shop. He took his car for a ride through our town and went to subway! One of my buddies got him to sign the dash on there 08 wrx, i have a picture. I got a video of the startup of his car. My camera dies at the end of this video i was so pissed. Idk if this will work ---> http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=log...271&ref=mf
Picture of him signing my friends wrx.
Also heres his newest gymkhana video.
