Watching the rally car vs the trophy truck is like watching a surgeon use a scalpel and then a hammer in the same operation. Love it

the rally car run, there's one guy with a big ass tree BEHIND him and it looks like the car was like 2 ft away from him. I had to back it up and lsow mo and was just saying," No! No! No!" I'd be on the other side the tree sticking just the camera out.. AT BEST!

What a dream job to be racing and learning with Ken Block Alex Gelsomino and the team… I live in Maui but someday I really really want to go to team O’Neil or dirt fish and learn some rally driving skills🤞

Highly recommend going to Team O'Neil. They have plenty of elevation at their facility, unlike Dirtfish. I live on the west coast but choose TON every time. Instructors are awesome. Money well spent.
This needs to be a class, imagine trophy trucks in Finland 🥰
We need a This vs That special episode. Would love to see a drag race.
What we proved today is: Ken is a scientist.
Seeing that truck do that, is cool as hell!
Man this is the stuff I’ve been waiting for!!
“Like being in a boat” love that 😂
NH? Cool! You guys are so close I can almost hear you. Brilliant video, Ken has turned into one of the most professional and experienced drivers, I'd watch him rally a Subaru Justy or whatever those were called lol
That was awesome! We gonna see these two in this vs that episode with double flying finish?
Thanks for not crashing the truck into the trees! Lol was freaking out when i heard you guys were in the Truck hahahha
I think this is such a smart tactic for ken and his TT career.
Love the way the Baja Truck DRIFTS AROUND THE TRACK 🔥🔥🔥
Can’t wait for baja 1000 it’s gonna be so awesomeee!!
Ken is such an insane driver! Wish I could drive anywhere near as good as him! Would make for some great channel content!

Man, I missed Zac's BAJA UPDATE so much :D Absolutely love this guy! The aero package on the Subaru is rad! And the trophy truck makes 1100 horsies *NA* ?! Dang :D Also: Alex really deserves some love! I really really enjoy the kinds of videos where we can see Ken shred the car and listen to Alex's pace notes along with it :) He generally seems like such a nice guy! Thank ALL of you so much for bringing us the videos! Much much appreciated :)
Good video ken😁👍
So cool to see the trust Between Ken And Alex.
Agree with Mr Voss, I have been a spectator on course with open class cars in Tillamook and Olympia to name two. They make gnarly sounds down shifting down hill in to a tight right, but the truck…..damn guys, good shyt. 🤘🔥😎🔥🤘
Way to go buddy!
I watch through the of the ads! Because I don’t have a choice... I can’t skip any of them
I love the livery on the cars. Ken Block has a sick racing suit. Block would probably still be doing this stuff at 70 and still kicking ass. I will always be a fan
Awesome content. Awesome vehicles Awesome team. Awesome driver.
Miss this dude everyday.
Thank you I’ve always wondered this
Epic stuff!!
I love Ken's version of "slow one first". VRRRRROOOOOOM!!!!
Great video...love this track. I think that truck handled this fantastic...
cool to see you rippin it up in my home state! Watch out for the big hairy fella!
These need to do a This vs That special... both with the flying finish.
I'm from New Hampshire, I love the forest driving up here, offroading, 4 wheeling, quad racing, etc
that slow mo shot of the truck coming out of the corner was sickkkkkkkkkk!!!!
Both look fun as hell 😀👍👍
Ken, you're an amazing crazy man!
Never thought I'd want to see a Trophy Truck on a rally stage but here we are and that was awesome - Trophy Trucks kick a serious amount of ass
Love the Trophy Truck sounds awesome
sweet ride

The ultimate This vs. That!
Aw I was hoping it would be an old top gear style with the trophy going as the crow flies
both cool vehicles optimized for a specific type of racing- but clearly this is the Subie's house
I will always love Ken block. I've loved him before he was a KZreadr but now that he is he will always be Napoleon dynamite in my mind....
Legend himself.
Exhaust note on TT is amazing
Those Trophy Trucks are UNDENIABLY some ABSOLUTELY AMAZING goddang machines ...
It would be cool to see how a STadium Super Truck would fair since it is smaller and lighter than the trophy truck but also has a V8 and plenty of travel in the suspension.
The people needed to know, and you have answered! Doing a Community Service - Thanks Ken. Now go get a Pro4, and run it against the WRX at Crandon! Thanks in advance.
Epic vid.

If the organisers allows it, some of those off-road tyres (not sure which one but I've heard from my rally community in my country) can actually destroys the gravel roads unless the trucks run similar tyres like the ones on the rally cars.

@@hashrulsubzero easy enough to swap to a smaller tire to meet stage rally regulations. The bigger issue is rally cars need to be road legal, and trophy trucks are very much not
Alex I give all kinds of kudos to you brother! To navigate and not look at most of the road me I could do it but I have know so many people that lose their lunch, after 30 seconds
That looks like a wild time
Great concept change. So we got views with drag strip, now let's make it more interesting PLESE do more of this with different cars on rally OMG
Subi, Ford, truck, car.......it don't matter as long as Mr Block is going fast and WINNING!!!!!! 🔥🏆🏁🤘
You make me Laugh on that Outro‼️😂😂😂
I like seeing Ken back in a Subie again.
Sweet video I know it's not really a hardcore comparison, a four-wheel drive trophy truck would have been a little bit better I'm assuming, cuz the Subaru is and all wheel drive car, nice video guys
Great concert u the man
His driving is so satisfying 😩
0:21 Thank you for the kind headphone warning. I totally had all the time I need to reduce the volume or take them off.
this needs to be a division of trophy truck racing .. timed laps on rally courses!!!!
R.I.P Ken Block. I got into watching Trophy trucks having watched the Mint 400 whilst living in the States and thought it is similar to rallying.
And that right there is the birth of a new sport, Trophy Truck Rallying, someone please make this happen
Can't wait to see that Subaru at Ojibwe Forrest Rally this year
The hoonicorn over dirt rally would of been epic but it never left pavement far as I know.
I’d love to drive both 😍
Wow, heavier things have more inertia than light things... Who knew? But damn, that sounded amazing, and holding the line in a vehicle with the suspension of a 1974 coupe de ville... Rally driving has always amazed me since you basically are driving on your imagination of what the co-driver describes in coming up, since by the time you see it it's already too late...
Oh that whoom whoom trophy truck 😍😍
Real nice wheels on the subaru btw
Dude is hilarious! U rock Alex!
my god that truck is just awesome
Please post about more prerunners and trophy trucks
did he get that course record... come on, there's gog to be on!! also, would like to see more of the head to heads, like a 22B car vs, trophy!!!
Epic!
RIP KB43VER - Amazing Legacy. Immortalized for all times.
This makes me wanna see what the Hoonicorn can do with a "Rally" setup on it!?
Enjoy changing flats on those Toyos in Baja. There is a reason that BFG wins nearly every race per class. Good luck though. Hope to see you down there.
Playing Forza Horizon i love to go trophy truck in the winter season. You just have fun sending a big car with insane power.
