Tanner Foust Does Gymkhana Better, Quantum Leap Still

I loved the show Quantum Leap.  I loved the American version of Top Gear.  I love cars and driving skills on display.  I think Tanner Foust is talented and funny.


In case you don't know what Quantum Leap was, here's the intro I found:

Gymkhana Seven and the 2015 Shelby GT350 Mustang by Ford

Although Ken Block heads DC Shoes, and I'm not a fan of the company anymore after their poor handling of our shoe issues (times three, as seen in the tweet below), he is an amazing driver.

I've posted other Gymkhana videos, but this might be my favorite.  It features a super modified 1965 Ford Mustang, with all wheel drive.  Some of the highlights of the video include a reference to the OJ Simpson chase, the Los Angeles low-rider scene, the concrete river, and the Hollywood sign.  Check it out.

This is also a cool day to post this video, because the 2015 Shelby GT350 Mustang by Ford was announced.  See the picture above or watch the video in Ford's tweet below.

Thanks Ben, for the alert to the Gymkhana video.

Hot Wheels, Gymkhana, Ken Block, MBI #1, Sweet (VIDEO)

I've posted about Ken Block and his amazing driving skills before, but I heard recently about a Hot Wheels model of his Ford Fiesta.  Now, I didn't plan on going out and getting it, as I'm not THAT crazy.  But I found one at Target tonight, while paying my kid for a bet I lost.  Yep, I bet my kid and lost, which is why I do not gamble.  Here are some images I shot of the Hot Wheels 2011 Ken Block Ford Fiesta:

This is sort of like the start to "My Bright Idea #1" coming true.

And here is his latest Gymkhana Video.

Ken Block is Back with Gymkhana 3.2

I've posted the past Gymkhana videos from Ken Block, "Mr. DC Shoes" himself (here, here, here, here), but this is a teaser to the latest one. That's right, it's a teaser.  This is so amazing. Enjoy.

I think Gymkhana 4 should be a chase scene in a movie, with this type of driving and intensity.  Ronin 2?

These Guys have Skills..Funny

I posted the Ken Block video here, showing the amazing skills of this driver. Now Rob Dyrdek, a professional skater and the hilarious Rob from "Rob and Big" fame, takes the driving skills to the next level. I wish Rob and Big was still on. It was so funny. Here's a trailer from the show.

Here's the driving skills of Block and Dyrdek:

This Guy has Skills

I read about this video a couple of times but never got interested enough to watch it. I finally did and..........WOW! This is amazing vehicle control and maneuvering. This driver can make the car do anything he wants. Enjoy this video.
