In the 5th installment of Ford’s 43 Fiestas series, Ford asks the question ‘Who can do the better burnout?’ To answer this question they have pitted Nascar driver AJ Allmendinger in his V8 rear-wheel drive Nascar against WRC, Rally America and Gymkhana extraordinaire Ken Block in his Monster Energy Ford Fiesta Rally car as Nascar legend Richard Petty looks on. Allmendinger is up first and produces a big cloud of tire smoke, but Ken Block, fresh off completing his Gymkhana 3 video, falls back on his old trick of spinning around a fixed object, and lighting em up around Allmendinger’s stopped car. I’m not sure who won the Challenge, but Block sure held his own and Richard Petty seemed to approve of both efforts.
Watch Ken Block and AJ Allmendinger produce large clouds of tire smoke in Ford’s ‘Burnout Challenge’ below.
