    RIP Ken Block

    Shocked to hear of Ken Blocks passing. He was incredible behind the wheel and a great source of entertainment.

    This is not a good start to 2023...

    Ken Block dies in snowmobile accident - Speedcafe
    Cheers

    An amazing talent behind wheel - I have always liked his videos..

    Jeremy Renner has also suffered a “significant injury” after a snow ploughing accident.

    Not a good start to 2023.

    I must have been living under a rock as I didn’t know who he was when my workmate told me yesterday - he showed me some videos - a couple of which I’d seen, but I didn’t know the name.

    A better driver than a snow mobile operator it seems. Also, I think based on his videos he was very unlikely to die of old age that’s for sure.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    From what I've heard the snowmobile landed on him.

    His own snow mobile or someone else’s?

    I think it was his own, it sounded like he was going down a pretty steep drop off and he came unstuck.

    That's what I heard. Wasn't Pedro a big fan?

    I also didn't realise he'd raced in the Dakar, but they did a tribute segment to him on the show today/yesterday.
