2011 Ford Fiesta Gymkhana 3 |
There are a lot of us that want to take life cool and easy, watching the events of this earth float by. Not Ken Block. When it comes to life and health and heights...and safety...and practically, he just puts a big grin on his face and starts laughing, and you can see it in the car that he constantly drives around now. This is my car of the week, Ken's 650 horsepower Ford Fiesta Gymkhana 3, in honor of DiRT 3 in which I've had the interest of playing. I drove it in the game and I was convinced. Ken Block is an absolute mad man. You can't control the car easily, and yet you'll be able to pull so many awesome moves at the Gymkhana arena in Battersea. This is the most insane car ever built to date. His last Gymkhana car, a Subaru Impreza STi had a 2.0-liter Boxer-4 engine with 550 horsepower. This car has a 2.0-liter turbo-4 with 650 horsepower, and that's just the 4th of it. It accelerates faster than a McLaren F1, corners far better than Ariel Atom, and reaches speeds exceeding that of a BMW M5. Not to mention you'll be able to pull insane 4-wheel drifts, super-sick donuts, and brainwashing spins. If you haven't experienced the Hoonigan madness, what are you waiting for? Get DiRT 3 now, cuz there's no way he's lending his car to you. It's fast! It's crazy! It's Hoony! It's my car of the week.
