Ken Block is Back!

Ken Block, who is a WRC driver, skateboarder, snowboard and co-founder and CBO (Chief Brand Officer) of DC Shoes; just put out a new video.  In this vid he is doing another redonkulous Gymkhana rally.  Gymkhana is:

Is an automotive sport that takes place in a parking lot, an abandoned airport, an international shipping port or an epic 86-year old European track that requires drivers to skillfully maneuver the cars around a series of cones, slaloms, turns, figure eights and possibly a 51-degree bank using extreme acceleration, braking and drifting.

Similar to “autocross”, Gymkhana courses are often complex, and memorizing the course is a significant part of this type of motorsport.

As always… watch this thing fullscreen at 1080p.  It is damn impressive…

Is it winter yet?

’cause if it is then I need to get one of these bad boys!

Prank Wars: part 7

I haven’t really been following the internet meme “Prank Wars” by a few of the members over at College Humor, but I recall catching bits and pieces of the pranks.  Here is the most recent one pulled on Amir. After seeing the last one Amir pulled I have no sympathy for him and feel this was well deserved.  Pretty damn impressive setup if you ask me…

The only way this is going to end is with one of the pranks ending in death, I think.
