Thought it had a Toyota on it??? could be mistaken.

Not sure what that badge means, but I'm pretty sure its an Escort, on a normal example it'd be a Ford bagde.

Ya nvm looked at it wrong another look nd dam its a ford...But he will soon relieze his mistake. Hopefully sooner rather then later! Before he breaks down.....

Here's a video of Ken Block and Chris Atkinson driving the car:

Team O'Neil's Rally School also has an 1980s Audi Quattro! Mmmmmm.

This is also Ken Block driving the Escort. I'm no expert but it seems he slows too much for the corners. They look like they could be taken faster.

Easier to say when you are watching it rather than actually doing it.

I think that he just needs to get used to the car. an old RWD car is quite different from a hi-tech modern 4wd rally car.

Maybe there's no co-driver

Well I agree with you to some extent, but he's not saying he could drive faster than Block, he's just saying he seems to slow too much for corners. You don't have to be an expert to know that or have any right to say it.

If you want to look like all those MTV addict 12 year olds around here that think they are cool for wearing monster/subaru shirts....

The camera has a very wide FOV, which makes the bends look a lot straighter than they actually are.

If you read it says WRC is with the Focus RS.

awesome

sexiness is unquestionable, i specially loved the interior shots

cmon this ford is ugly as hell and this turbo lag sound.... rofl sonds more like bird or whatever

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjtG-dQNVIs

at 4:26 you can see and hear how a sexy turbo lag sounds like and how a awsome car looks like

But I´m happy that a focus actually looks good so I´m looking foreward to that one
