I'm starting to notice how heavily edited together this thing is.

Not really impressed with anything he did in the video, but he's a great stunt driver, its a shame his rally record isn't as good.

as a side note.. I'm pretty sure I see a racepak dash in his car... the same one I'm putting in the skwirl

The sound that car makes is just sex.

I know most of the videos are edited together. yet his driving is pretty impressive.

Yeah, its edited, but its still really freaking awesome. I still think the first one he did was the best, the second was awesome but too Hollywood-ized with the explosions and Drydek shooting the car with a paintball gun. This is like Ken getting back to his roots of the first one. Still excellent driving skills, and it is a shame his rally record isn't as good. Maybe its time to shift to drifting...

Paying someone to install parts and bragging about it being fast, is like watching someone bang your wife and being proud to raise their kids.

good to see they were able to keep a transmission in the car... now if only they could do it in his rally car.

nice driving as usual!

So you,.... who can't afford a car with either type of 6-speed trans.... watch Top Gear. Congrats. Want a cookie for stolen lines?



I personally think the first one was awesome, he's doing too many now. Very impressive stunt driving, and very impressive work-over on the car. Just getting bored with these vids to be honest.


On the other hand....you have other fingers.

I still like it, but a little less commercially would be better.

not to burst your bubble, but this isn't the rip-off OEM watered down BS they put into production cars.

its a serious race gear box with sequential shift and spur gears aka straight cut gears.
(you can hear the gear whine get higher pitched as the car's speed increases).

its a true-blue clutchless shift. no H-pattern gearbox can shift as fast, ever.

its a rally car. they all have them, as well as any other cars that do more than turn left all day.

as a side note; did anyone else notice him smack the crap out of the wall in the very beginning of the video?

Oh yea. In my eyes(compared to the 1st one) his driving was alot more sloppy.


His Festa is a dedicated race car, it'll be retarded to toss a H-pattern shifter in it. For some reason i do love the sound of the anit-lag on it.

definitely looks more sloppy then his other vids. The other ones seemed more creative and flowed better rather then just pick spots to do donuts. The first one still owns!
