i dont think he needs to push this WRC field yet...
There is two out come always so far, crash or brake something. Either way DNF always.
I seriusly was rooting for them , but now its getting embarrissing. I do not see any improvment in his performance so far. And surely he cant blame the car.
I get killed daily from EU about him LOL

So I have been patiently waiting to see what the announcement on restrictor size in the 1600 turbos is going to be. Anyone heard if its still going to be 34mm or smaller?

Ken is a 10th place as it stands now,
My homie crashed 300 meter from the finish line...
I do not think they will make it back though.

But at least Ken stepped a head 1 spot LOL

I like the Skoda better then a Mini... This pic from the 2010 WRC France

if im right Ken finished the 16th place. He was late for the TC , so he got a 1 minute 40 sec penalty, they were fixing they butterfly shifter and that cause the delay.

Technically... doesn't the wheels have to be IN the ditch for that maneuver to be considered a "ditch hook"? This looks more like a "ditch hop".

Or....

"WRC now protects the environment by covering the road side grass with GLASS"

in the real life, is no we try it again, to shoot this corner scenario .
Perhaps he just came out the Gymkhana 3, which is i think the best so far.
