I'm not sure where the other thread is, it's a few months- maybe yrs old by now, but I was arguing Sebastian Loeb vs Ken Block.

Block might bean amazing "stunt" driver, but I would think that that should at least translate WAY batter to WRC then what it has.

I'm watching the coverage of it right now and my guy, Loeb, is dominating all and Block is getting his ass KICKED..........HARD!

SS10 and my F1 driver, K. Riakkonen, is beating him by 3 1/2 mins and Loeb is beating him by 9 mins, 20 secs.

I told you guys, whom ever you were- IDR, Loeb is one of the best.

I do hope Block can figure it out soon. I would like to see someone from the USA to do good in that sport.

IDK, I didn't watch them.

In the SS12 Block had to retire due to an alt belt breaking, forcing him to retire for the remainder of the SS's.

FYI, SS= Super Stage

I don't think Ive ever seen block finish a rally event here in WA.. this last time he rolled it in one of the first stages on the first day.. He can drive, but he's better at marketing.
