Default Ken Block in SF

After asking me a couple of advices regarding driving skills and drifting techniques, Ken decided to come and visit us in the Bay Area and practice what I taught him...

I was talking to Ken about that and he said while your instruction was good, he was looking for something a little more advance, so he was glad I was able to break away from teaching F1 drivers to give him some help.

I've seen some donuts tire marks on the Bay Bridge lately and I was wondering who the hell was able and so crazy to go and do donuts at 4am on the bridge... It was Ken Block, day time.

That first jump and downhill drift are beautiful. Do you think we can get DC to help fund some reworking of some local mountain passes? Add some red/white curbs, more guardrails, separate one-way up/down hill lanes. They have spent plenty of money on skateparks, I think Ken would approve of building some purpose-built driving roads.

I was told the same thing by Ken, and he was like we know Vu bs a lot, so he came to me to confirm what you learned from you. I told him, look buddy, Vu is a good guy, fallow his advices I approved
