Its time for MORE speed science! Since we had the 1100 hp Gieser Bro's G6 Trophy Truck, 375hp Subaru WRX STI rally car, 375hp Ford Escort Cossie V2, and my wife's Ford Fiesta R2, we figured we would solve the great debate to see which is faster on a simple course. Could a 197 hp rally car actually be faster than an 1100 hp trophy truck? Watch and find out!

Super stoked to be back to racing thanks to the ARA (American Rally Association) putting on the Southern Ohio Forest Rally (SOFR) despite still being in the middle of a pandemic. This event was wildly different than any rally event I've run before - with no fans or spectators - only one night of actual racing - on just two special stages repeated three times each - all based on organizers doing their best to adapt to the current state of the world and navigating local permit restrictions. The good news is that we're racing again, and these were some of the best stage roads I have driven in an American Rally event, with Alex Gelsomino and I getting quicker and quicker as the night went on, at our first rally in this new COVID-19 era!

What happens when you let a 16 year old race your top spec rally car in their first rally?? In episode 4 of "Whoopocalypse Now", we get my Baja 1000 teammate, Jax Redline prepared to race my Escort Cosworth V2 in his first ever rally at New England Forest Rally. There is a ton of work that goes into preparing for a race like this. We sent Jax to get instruction from the best in the business. First he trained with my co-driver Alex Gelsomino, then Dirtfish rally school, and finally a multiple day program at Team O'Neil rally school. Jax did exceptionally well during the first day of the race, making his way up the leaderboard and rounding out the day 7th on the road. Unfortunately, an off on day 2 led to a gearbox issue that would put him out of the race. But hey....THATS RALLY.

Welcome to Whoopocalypse Now! This is the first of an 8 episode series documenting my road to the Baja 1000. I’ll be racing with 16-year-old rising star Jax Redline, in a Trophy Truck (built by Geiser Bros) - so, to make things interesting, we’re putting Jax behind the wheel of one of my favorite rally cars (my Ford Escort Cossie V2) so that he can further his own skill set in a rally race! We’ve even wrapped it in the same “It’s A Living” livery as my Subaru STI & Tuthill Safari Porsche rally cars.

Ken Block's Cossie World Tour, presented by Sonax: Episode 011: Gymkhana GRID Poland Gymkhana GRID is 10 official events strong - and just keeps getting better and better. From humble beginnings at Irwindale speedway, to the hyper-competitive event it is today, GRID is really the ultimate combo of drifting and timed racing. This year's event in Poland really showed how tight the competition was, and how far the event has come in just a short amount of time. And what better place to debut the Ford Escort Cossie V2 in its Gymkhana spec?

Ken Block's Cossie World Tour, presented by Sonax: Episode 009: Ken Block's Cossie V2 vs Brand New Ford Fiesta R5 While testing for the Donegal Rally, I had the opportunity to do a back-to-back drive that I've been thinking about since the day the Ford Escort Cossie V2 was finished: is it slower than a Ford Fiesta R5? Or faster? Or the same? Thanks to our friends at M-Sport in the UK, they helped make that test a reality.
