Guys,

Not sure if this might have been shown already, sorry if its a dupe.

Ken's new video is here:

Ken Block's Video No 2

Its just like his first one, a joy to watch, great driving control, and wonderful video footage!!

Enjoy.

I thought this was a thread about censorship, and wondered which Ken we were talking about.

Apologies to those who hate whinges about punctuation, etc., but if the missing apostrophe was in place here the title would have made much more sense.

Edit: That's better, thanks!

Roger,

Sorry if the title was misleading.

I have changed it now to something that hopefully meets with your very exact standards.

Let me know if it makes the grade now.

Guys,

Glad you all like it, it certainly makes me smile every time I watch it!! smiley

I particularly love the inspired use of the fluorescent tubes he drives over in the shape of a semi circle.

I had hoped that he was going to do a full 360 over the tubes, with one at every 5 minutes of the clock face, but I guess that would be really hard!!

Still cant stop watching it though!!

Nige.

Rog,

I have even made other small detail edits to the original post.

I know what a perfectionist you are, and I did not want to disappoint you!!

Cheers,

Mige.

Didn't mean to make you cross Nige, it was just a rather confusing title. Damn good video, though.

IMO - first one is better, in terms of driving.

Angus,

I know what you mean re the first video.

I still cant decide between them both though!!

So here's my idea.

I feel inspired enough to make a Caterham R500 Version of this video.

So It wont have quite the same content as Kens video, beacuse

A: I don't have the skill!!

B: I don't have 500+ BHP and 4 Wheel Drive.

But I still think it would be fun to try and make a video for all of us Caterham fans, and see what we can produce, and then lets see how we can make it a viral video watched by many thousands, hopefully hundreds of thousands and who knows even millions!!

So who's up for helping make the video then?

Volunteers needed!!

Nige.
