OK, Now I know who Ken Block is. Wow, that's some stunt. Not sure if his Ford Focus is the front wheel drive or all wheel drive. Drifting with FWD is easier, but in some slow-mo shots, it looks like the rear wheels are smoking too. If not driven, friction would have slowed them down. I guess the hockey stick control modulates power to the rear differential. I thought it was a bootlegger brake, but there's more going on there.
Imagine all the P.O.-ed S.F. commuters!
I learned to drive in the Hollywood Hills. Some of those moves would've been handy there.
