Great driving skill.....but how much are the tyres each???? some serious smokin there

 

[wegotitugetit]

I've seen him do that in the old impreza.

I'm not saying that thats not impressive, but he must have done it a thousand times and done many "takes" to get that film. The tyre marks on the concrete are evidence.

Lots of people could do that given enough practice, now.......

..where did I put my doom stick . . . . .

Oh I'm not so sure we can dismiss it just because of the practice.

I thought the tyre marks were fascinating, it showed that he hadn't put it in the drink once, though the shot they used was the closest he came. He seems to have hit a few of the bollards on some of the practice runs but unless they had several cars he doesn't seem to have hit any of the pillars.

I'm assuming this isn't one run on the film but a composite from several takes. The filming is very impressive as well as the driving, but whoever thought up the choreography deserves some credit too.

Not been to Disney Studios then, they have a show showcasing this type of driving not that it isn't skillful though!

 

[wegotitugetit]

missed out on that saw it getting built and was due for opening a few months after we had been did see em practasing though

 

[singlespeed]

The new video is ace, with the camera work being as good as the driving itself.

There were some out-takes from the making of the first video, where the bumpers took a bit of a battering, but nothing too spectacular. Theres another video from a record atempt at a ramp jump - now that was silly

Sorry, my mistake, its the snow ramp>>>

[inaneredstripe]

[Gary]

we need a whole new forum section for all the ken block videos that get posted

 

[fraggle101]

I can do that...:nuts:

 

[foodpoison]

I dunno what you're on about, he looks totally out of control to me!


Sliding all over the bloody place!

 

[Flash In The Pan]

I've seen better - any of the "flying Finns" from the 70s/80s could, if you pardon the pun, run rings round that guy...

 

[fracster]

93`s and 96`s..............
