Ken Block Races Against His Daughter, Lia Block: Race Oregon Trail Rally.
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Oregon Trail Rally is the last stop on the 2021 ARA championship calendar. Its home to some of the most epic roads, and the only tarmac hillclimb stage in the championship. This year's event would be Ken's daughter, Lia Block's first ever stage rally. She did exceptionally well until the motor let go in her Ford fiesta R2 (2wd). Ken and Alex Gelsomino suffered an electrical issue that would take them out of the fight for the lead but managed a 3rd place overall - placing them 2nd in the ARA championship.

Rest in peace. Ken left behind an absolute racing prodigy. Curious to see if she decides to follow in her father's footprints.

Taking out a stop sign that ripped off his bumper, and then pulling off a slick hoonigan donut in the corner to recover, was perfectly symbolic "In your face!" moment.

Thanks! Rally is the best. It’s also the worst because you only get one try and have to nail it. This stage was extra tough because you didn’t have a great warning from the sound, since we were up above… so timing was by guess only.

@@Non-juicy exactly why she should start at the bottom the same as anyone else who was trying to get into WRC, compete at a lower level against people her own age then work up through the rankings and her skill will put her wherever she fits in. I dont condone letting a child who legally cant drive yet skip the line and just compete with the big dogs just because they got connections with no prior experience of note, no competitions in the junior level absolutely nothing except she came from Ken's balls and he said it was cool
"I still have to beat you...then he can stop" 100% the best part of the video! Kens going to keep pushing it and she'll become a world beater! This father vs child battle is going to be epic!

wow that drone footage from the asphalt stage was absolutely amazing!
That asphalt stage was perfect! A cinematic perfection. Thank you for showing us that!
omg your daughter is so adorable! Live hard, live FAST!
Love how he is starting to use his old liveries
AMAZING!! I love the father daughter bonding time videos it's very wholesome! Super rad that shes following your footsteps that kiddo can shred it in a rally car
My home state of Oregon is one of the best places for rally cross in the world and I say that because I’ve been doing it since I was 11 years old in my beat up ass s10 4.3l w/A rear locker and then I transferred to my Subaru brat!The trails out here are remarkable I’m glad to see motor sports are out here!💚 Oregon
It’s so cool to see her race.
Every second of these videos is so entertaining to watch, absolutely top notch content. Also big ups to the editor(s), they really know how to highlight or replay certain things (like the sign clipping) so that I actually never feel the need to scroll back in the video.
So that drone clip round around 11 minutes was flipping divine. Kudos for it. You always produce the sickest videos, but that shot made my day!
So sweet your Daughter is following in your footsteps! How exciting for you two! Great video!
Love seeing parent and child sharing a common interest and both being passionate about it!
Wow 🤩 👏it’s like he’s getting better every time he and she. Race’s 🏎😁🛹😅🎶
This channel continues to be my favorite KZread channel ever, I absolutely love the rally vids!!!
What an awesome group of family and friends! I know they are all proud that she’s following in her dads footsteps and she looks sooooo excited!
The drone work in this video was AMAZING. Keep it up!
You can just see how they both love this, Ken is a inspiration to many drivers. Seen the tight 360 turn when he hit that road sign. Don't ever stop in doing what you love.
Ken one of the coolest video's I've ever seen thank you and being a Dad of a daughter myself loved seeing that moment you can see how proud you really are can't wait to see you and her race now That will be a good race👍 from Brisbane Australia
Ken channeling his inner takumi on that tarmac stage lmfao
Ken block is amazing
love seeing the family racing together. dope to see the youngin push till it blew, savage.
So awesome to watch Lia beginning what is sure to be an amazing racing career. Best of luck kid!
Ken Block and Hoonigan are my favorite racing channels.
Welcome back again ken!
I never met Ken Block but I have been watching his content for a long time. I am going to miss watching him do his thing.
That proud Dad feeling is the best! Gratz to both of you, job well done.
You two are BEASTS!
Ken Block is doing the Tak Fujiwara gutter technique😂
i was impressed with the drone shots! Good videos! Thanks!
Congrats to Lias first Rally, and to the proud father. And super sweeeet drone following shots in the mountains. Great video and storytelling.
Damn, that last section was some insane scenery! Loved the drone footage, amazing work! Oh, and nice driving ofc! ^^
Love the drone work on all these rally videos!
man, the camera angles that can be achieved from drones doubles the entertainment value while watching race events. amazing where technology has taken the entertainment industry
Great video coverage! Well done to you all! I always enjoy the onboard footage and I thought the drone footage where it seems to chase the car (11: 25 - 11:35) was very interesting, too! As a fellow co-driver, based in Victoria, Australia, I appreciate how focussed and calm Alex is throughout your events! Have a great Christmas and I look forward to seeing more of your videos in 2022. Cheers from Down Under, Martin
that was awesome how he kept the car spinning to straighten it out after clipping the stop sign
shows that good training and equipment can get you at pro levels

Ken gets out of sorts after that one water pit and Alex glances up, laughs, and just says “okay.” before going back to the pace notes. What a great co-driver. 😂👌
5:35 WAAAUW!!! That's the most artistic STOP sign kill I've ever seen! Absolutely beautiful!
I love rally racing is getting attention in the states. Truly the finest form of racing imo
RIP Ken you legend!!
That save from Ken was absolutely phenomenal
Maryhill loops road is so much fun. I go with a group of buddies every summer and rip up that road!
The drone shots were just lit
Sounds like she's having so much fun. Keep after it🤗
Best Dad ever! All I want for Christmas is Driftmas.
Lia is soo talented and I'm lowkey jealous of her
Love the drone footage
The most important thing is the break away bolt was up to date on that sign..... awesome video
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the magicians behind the drone shots?
That sign clip recovery spin was too slick!!!!
Rest in peace to the Mythical & Legendary Ken Block 😢
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!
That tarmac section reminds me of ICON’S first motorcycle drift videos.
The drone shot is so cool☺️
ya im happy shes racen
I like how he accidently tapped the pole, and instinctly just got in to reverse made 360 in to first and got of :D
Very nice drone footage from amazing driving 👌

That stop sign take out was epic!! Our view of the take out was great. We figured Ken & Alex were helping everyone else out by taking the sign out of the way🤣.

Wooooww, i love this RACE, Like Father Like Daughter.... perfect.

1. Lia, great work out there. Dad has taught you well. Looking forward to seeing your career grow from here. 2. Ken, no stopping yet. I still need to get to your level and compete alongside or against you. (Im a late bloomer haha) 3. Great coverage of Mary Hill. Those drone shots were incredible and the overlay with Alex's pace notes. I love your guys run videos. Alex's notes always are on point! Great work everyone!
