That's pretty much driving in rural Michigan. We didn't have all wheel drive cars when I was a youngster so I had to do that shit with a BMW 2002. The Plymouth Arrow and a few Novas did pretty well too.
Well, without the fireworks. I did flatten all four tires one day when I missed a corner at speed and jumped a curb into a field.
The lord protects idiots and drunks. Drunk idiots get special protection, I guess.
The stack of space-saver spares in the corner of the garage sets the tone pretty well. I lol'ed. Nice one, Kyle!
And frankly, while Ken Block is pretty good at what he does, he's also got an enormous ego that practically demands to be brought down a bit like this. Travis Pastrana is a much nicer guy, and (IMO) the better driver, too.
I was all set to say, "That's exactly how I drive when I've left my work keys at the house," until I saw the mouthbreathers throwing tarps and driving on the shoulders.
Funny is good, but tossing junk out and endangering other drivers is unexcusable. The upside is, there's plenty of easily identifiable face shots in the vid, so it's just a matter of time before some enterprising cop drags the dumbass in. Here's hoping it comes soon.
@Elhigh: I'm with you on that one. I'm OK with the parts shot on empty gravel roads and quarry / abandoned industrial areas but the part shot in traffic is nothing short of criminal.

It's cool, we still have the Subby to drive.

So I guess I'd have to agree. He's an ass.

Some parts of this just look plain dumb and dangerous. Some look funny.
