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!

The 90’s were iconic for many reasons, the style, the music, Z Cavaricci Pants, but most importantly, the drop top 5.0 Fox Body Ford Mustang. I wanted to do something special for my daughter, Lia’s 14 birthday. So we enlisted the help of 90’s icon and 5.0 aficionado, Vanilla Ice, to bring our Carcaine Inspired Fox Body purchase up to 90’s hot-boi spec. With a full restoration from CarcaineSupply.com featuring suspension from Maximum Motorsports, Rotiform Wheels, Toyo Tires , Borla Exhaust, a Scottidi angle Kit, and detailed with @SonaxUSA car care, the Carcaine Destiny Stang is ready to party.

When we set out to build the Vanilla Ice inspired, drop top 5.0 Fox body Mustang, we had one major goal in mind - Teach my daughter Lia to drift with it. For her instructor, I enlisted the help of my friend and Formula Drift Champion, Vaughn Gittin Jr. As it turned out, Lia would get the FULL drift experience. Breaking parts, track side modifications, running out of fuel, and persevering through it all to finally nail the final trick. The Borla Exhaust completely changed the tune of this Fox and not surprisingly, the Toyo Tires we ran held up through the entire day!

With free rein to race in 2021 with any manufacturer of his choosing, Ken Block and Hoonigan Racing Division are announcing a wild year in some of the world’s finest gravel slingers: from an open class Subaru STi, to a safari-spec Porsche 911, to Block’s first ever race in a Trophy Truck… and that’s just the beginning. Block is also announcing more manufacturer partnerships soon. “This is going to be a wild year! I’m stoked to be back in a Subaru racing rally in America,” said Block. “And now that I’m not exclusively tied to just one manufacturer, I can go do things like race a Porsche, built by Tuthill Porsche, in Africa and take on the infamous Baja 1000 in a Trophy Truck - both of which I’ll be doing for the first time ever!” Later in the year is when things get really interesting for Block. In early November, Block is set to pilot a Tuthill Porsche built air-cooled Porsche 911 for the East African Safari Classic Rally. Spanning 10 days and nearly 5000 km on Kenya’s tough gravel roads, it’s often regarded as the world's greatest classic rally. The day after the East African rally is scheduled to end, Block will head straight to Baja, Mexico to start the pre-run of the Baja 1000, then buckle into a Trophy Truck for his first ever attempt at the legendary off-road race. He seeks to answer the question: “Can a rally driver translate his skills directly to the world of off-road truck racing?” For the event, he’s teaming up with 16-year-old Jax Redline, an up and coming off-road racer who just took 5th overall at last weekend’s San Felipe 250. “Jax is one of the young and very talented drivers in the sport and I am stoked to be partnered with him in this big effort to go take on one of the biggest off-road races in the world!” said Block.
