Rip Mr Ken Block

Post by colin39 »

Saw this very early this morning (4am 😲) with all the stuff he has done in Gymkhana inc the skate board rail slid in a car, and a snowmobile gets him.
The next time i see clouds over a blue sky, i will hope yourself and your hero Colin McRae are doing doughnuts

I live on Canvey, in the Y-uk, a place a little more exciting than a disappointing poo!!!

Thank you for posting this, I too was very saddened to read this earlier today, it's a cruel twist of fate for someone as talented as Ken.

For anyone who may not know much about Ken Block, here's an article covering the sad event and a few of his exploits over the years

I suppose the only good thing is that he died doing something he loved. Crap start to the New Year though ☹️
