    I think the hate on him is, from my opinion.

    He's seen by people as this drift god because of his expensive posh gymbanana runs, which are done in about a million takes to make his driving seem perfect, but when it comes to doing it for real life (WRC) he's actually not very good, but because he's so famous he takes the spot light away from real drifters.

    With practice and a 4WD 650bhp car I'm sure it's not too hard to accomplish, I'm pretty sure it would be near on impossible to spin out in a 4WD car because you could just floor it and do some fast little circles sort your steering out and belt off again like you were supposed to do it?

    All I'm saying is, I'd like to see him in a proper rwd car, S body, R body what ever with only a couple hundred bhp and see how he does against a real drifter on a proper track not a HUGGEEEE skid pan thing.

    Also, before 'neon drifter' and all over KB lovers start having a go saying I couldn't do it, no you're right I probably couldn't but it's just annoying to see people constantly bum someone off who isn't actually that great when they're much better people out there who struggle to get any of the spot light.
    Having fun, that's what Drifting is all about, keep it that way.

    Are half of your retarded?

    This isn't a drift event, points aren't awarded for style. Its time based. Like a race. That's why they're timed you bunch of barry sock wanking fools. Petty does a 1.07 doing his drifty carry on, Jnr does a 58 sec because he's going faster. Who wins? Do you want me to draw you a picture for fucks sake.

    As for Block, his videos are promotional items for his (or formally his) company, DC. Its not there to win kudos with bedroom geeks who don't have a license and think SR bodies are the be all and end all. It's there to promote a brand, which it does to great effect going off a) the number of views of his videos and b) the fact that Ken Block has a LOT of money.

    it's just annoying to see people constantly bum someone off who isn't actually that great when they're much better people out there who struggle to get any of the spot light.
    Suck it up buttercup - that's life. I don't want to watch some beardy geek with a knackered FC smash into the trolley bays as Tesco because its dull. I am not alone in this way of thinking. You're in the minority. Deal with it

    It's fact and you can't argue with fact.
