Video: Ken Block’s Gymkhana TWO
Thursday, January 7th, 2010Since many people seem to have missed the fame of Ken Block and his Gymkhana stunt videos, I decided to post the Gymkhana II here. It’s not really rallying – and of course he has done a lot of tries, but at least it’s a rally car and it’s still quite impressive. Also, it’s a sign of how to do successful marketing with rallying – this video was ranked number four in the Viral Video Chart 2009 by well-known Advertising Age. Here we go:
Video: Compare Ken Block vs. Kimi Räikkönen driving style – onboard videos
Wednesday, January 6th, 2010With two new stars coming into the championship, I thought it would be a fun thing to compare their driving styles – so I found one onboard video of each driver. Ken Block on the Concord Pond stage in the New England Forest Rally 2008 in America driving a Subaru Impreza and Kimi Räikkönen driving the Abarth Grande Punto in WRC Rally Finland 2009 on the Leustu stage.
Compare the driving styles yourself!

Video: Luca Betti Peugeot 207 S2000 test
Friday, December 25th, 2009Italian driver Luca Betti tested the Peugeot 207 Super2000 in Montemale with the Kimera team on the 23rd of December. From what I know, Betti is currently trying to secure a budget for IRC in 2010 and a start in Monte Carlo is rumoured – but no deal is signed and the problem is – as always – money.
Anyway, let’s hope Betti comes to the startline and until then we’ll enjoy his drive on this video:
Video: Juho Hänninen Skoda test in France

Video: Anders Gröndal winter-testing in Norway
Thursday, December 17th, 2009Anders Gröndal tested his Subaru Impreza WRC today in Norway. The conditions seemed to be really snowy and the temperature was at -17 degrees celcius. Watch for yourself:
I know that Mads Östberg tested with Gröndal earlier this week, but still there seems to be no dedicated video available from that test.
Gröndals test didn’t went very good. He had damper problems from the beginning – and something happened during the test that forced the team to cancel, and that also jeopardizes Gröndal’s scheduled local event Romhjulsrallyt, a few days after christmas.
