When I first heard that Ken Block was getting into rally, I honestly wasn’t impressed. Even when he started getting pretty good at it, I thought he was still in Pastrana’s shadow, who I wasn’t really fond of either. Not that I’m an expert opinion or anything like that, but when you compare to the likes of Sebastian Loeb or even Petter Solberg, it’s just hard to look at it the…

July 3-5 weekend grosses $42.5 million.

Happy fourth of July to everyone! Without any track days on the calendar and the beaches packed, I decided to stay home for the most part.

I already know what you’re thinking: it’s my first blog post, the very important first impression, and here I am talking about Fast And Furious. Keep talking trash, you know you love it! The great irony with import tuners is that none of them will ever publicly admit to enjoying the series, but they all somehow manage to watch each and every single one anyway.
