I think Ken Block is seriously over hyped. Yeah I guess Gymkhana is pretty cool, but he's not that good of a Rally driver.

doubt you'll find anybody to argue against it. the hype around block is his insane car control in gymkhana videos, not his rally driving.

Guessing the motor is based off the new flat crank V8 that was unveiled today:  http://www.autoblog.com/2014/11/17/ford-mustang-shelby-gt350-official-photos/ (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/11/17/ford-mustang-shelby-gt350-official-photos/) (hence the release date for both on the same day).   Love the sound of it.

Could not agree more.  Great time to be a car guy:  M2/M4, Z28, GT350, F-type.  All in the $50K-70K range and all ready for a nice day at the track.

Awesome driving, but the car conversion made me sad.  They took a beautiful '65 Mustang and made it look like an '80s Mustang. 

And forget the driving, the best part of it all was the OJ chase.
