Global Rallycross Championship (GRC) 2012 Round 1 Charlotte

[@FullBlownStoned]

You got to admire Block in a way... It's an achievement of sorts to crash so much in so many different kinds of motor sports. I think he have enough crashes to make a whole DVD compilation.

[@cody12345249]

I love British commentators. They seem to know more about what's going on, a better knowledge and just sound better in general.

[@TheOwl22]

Back when Rallycross was popular in America.

[@SebastianBlix]

I've been a fan of rally and hillclimb for many many years, and I may have to watch a few more of these!

[@Solis190491]

well, this just demonstrates that a truly legit wrc driver will always have more experience in any type of circumstance

[@CenturionC4]

SWEETBUTTER!!! Thanks WRCforeva, you are the man!

[@skogpekka]

Well, you already got some good alternatives; KZbin & MotorsTV MotorsTV are possibly broadcasting in the States, but the free option is youtube, as mentioned ;)

[@Rumeeezyy]

Does anyone know what channel the Belgian Formula 1 Grand Prix will be on?

[@xexas3000]

awesome! i hope you upload all rounds of GRC ;) great stuff! Many Thanks!

[@TheWudu1]

More Global Rallycross Championship Action!

[@Road86RAT]

I totally agree!!!! at least the bikes have Supercross Des Nations! Where contrys compete against each other! But how the hell can u have a "WORLD" Championship that only races in the USA! Us here in South Africa have some brilliant drivers in all forms of motorsport and we are currently building a Rallycross track in Pretoria!! We are willing to try take on some of the big racers from the world! This has the potential to be absolutely epic!!!!!

[@StomaViking]

ken blocks car is genuinely brilliant it transforms to whatever discipline kens racing its amazing all in a matter of minutes

[@liljoker_408]

The Dodge Dart 😍😍😍 29:15

[@crazypig233]

useing your breaks is a comon driving techniqe!?!? MIND BLOWN. thankyou knowledgeable female commentator.

[@CPeperak]

No I live in America but the only person from the ERC that is the X Games is Liam Doran

[@PeterM0911]

Grönholm will be there too, so I won't be that sure about Loeb's success. It will be great to see the legends again race against each other.

[@Lipitoarea]

put more from GRC when available!

[@strahinjastevic7480]

Marcus wiped the floor with them

[@BryanHorowitzRacing]

there is a term used in rallying when you crash the car when you pass the ability to which you can drive and that is called ken blocking it

[@kepong23]

actually, she has been a co-driver for rally racing and eventually became a course side reporter and now a commentator..she actually knows a lot about rally than you do..

[@Patrick11223]

These are the nicest cars, I've always wanted a car built to race

[@PandyPaws74747]

Grumpy Bear: God damn it! 26:13

[@surrehue333]

I thought the terms to call it rallycross, the tracks had to have a gravel section. Or is that just european rallycross?

[@NikNak]

Thanks for uploading these races mate. Greatly appreciate it!

[@CPeperak]

I would watch European Rallycross but i don't have the channel cause i'm in America

[@cuuscuus]

how is this rallycross?

[@Karburante]

and Marcus kicked their asses and will always do, with one hand!!

[@TheCarlsonsRaiders]

I believe it came from the Indy 500, where the cars were scored with their numbers shown on a pole, and the fastest qualifier would be on top of the pole, hence pole position.

[@CPeperak]

Loeb is in X Games 18 I guarantee he is going to win Gold in one of the rallycross events

[@Roby0593]

very great championship, i like if you can load all the championship season step by steap THANK YOU :)

[@Poonard]

This is just a better form of racing for me. The only problem I see is there aren't enough drivers!

[@holotropik]

Wow! hope you put more of these up as well! I will be sending you a christmas present now for all these vids :D

[@Edvord1085]

Кен Блок шоумен а не гонщик !!!

[@MyKnuddelbaerchen]

if u r new to this,the number on the cars is not big enough. and only 6 laps???..thats gay

[@wrccroatia]

ma koji pastrana, mirra i ekipa, gronholm and europe, all the way baby!! :D

[@NickMercurio]

ken block doing what he does best

[@2chance1]

Shes new to commentating I believe (so that may be why it doesn't sound like it) but I know for a fact she's been in rally for a long time.

[@armandozapata]

Gronholm comes from WRC, twice world rally champion, who competed against guys like Carlos Sainz, Richard Burns, Colin McRae and Seb Loeb himself among others, he has no match here. Marcus champion! ;)

[@stcywll]

Ads are the reason you can watch this for free on KZbin.

[@visionmauto]

This is actually pretty damn awesome with someone from the UK speaking. It increases the awesome :D

[@clarifaco]

KEN BLOCK CAN´T DEAL WITH HIS EMOTIONS

[@rallysoob]

I love KB but I wish Mirra would win. Foust and Deegan are both awesome and Pastrana is an all time fav. This is the best sport ever right now. So glad I got an STi again....road trip 2013 GRC

[@emericareaper2]

That was pretty sick. Not as great as foreign but SOO much better than nascar.

[@brianrigsby7900]

Is it normal for the cars to spit fire like that?

[@brianrigsby7900]

And where’s the shifter?

[@bondedwithpotatoes0076]

yes most racecars do spit flames and the shifter is that lever right next to the steering wheel, you can see it in marcus' car at 15:48

[@DreamClean]

Kust cos he stalled on the line doesn't mean something's broken. What is this guy on?

[@Kevizzle05]

First 2 go thru' right ?

[@Chives5150]

I think the reason why they don't have dirt, mud, or gravel is because they have other races that utilize the same area that the GRC guys are using. It would be a pain to clean that stuff up. If only they could use a different part of the track, maybe the infield portion of the track where they could use dirt, mud, or gravel.

[@ropy89]

Block never seems to know when it's time to push and when he should keep calm to stay on the propper driving lane

[@Ghassan555]

Excellent upload thanks....

[@BlueSkyCrystals]

He was keeping up with Gronholm, who went on to win the whole event.

[@UncontestedGamer]

why would anybody sponsor Buck Lasek, it seems like he comes in last in every WRC race

[@fcporto0629]

great job

[@daveash]

Loving it better than NASCAR turn left what's the next corner again?

[@somedude1129]

I'm not convinced the commentators know anything about auto racing

[@MagnumPI4]

ha hubinette is the man. Celebrating a 1st place in a heat race like he just won le mans.

[@JSwatchesthings]

How did I miss this!??!! ...HOW????

[@elwoodjoey88]

What he gets is a really good car!

[@BlueSkyCrystals]

True. Toby Moody is an expert on MotoGP, but not this kind of racing.

[@Roby0593]

thanks

[@2chance1]

uhhh Jen Horsey has been around Rally for quite a long time....and Toby Moody is British, so hence the different vocabulary

[@touge242]

the rear ducts on the subarus, are those for rear-mounted radiuators, or brake/cabin cooling?

[@JewGiveMeMonies]

The British guy has been commentating WRC for a very long time. Not convinced you know squat =)

[@InfiltrateIndustries]

why does Sverre always fail?!

[@iiFamous1337]

I mean the subarus i talked about never got close to a battle all of them maybe had a problem.

[@mansoorkhan2864]

i don't like watching videos when i don't know the videos is about

[@112leo]

look at his performance on WRC, ridiculous, horrible horrible.... if that is the best driver what is Loeb?

[@gftGrafit]

I agree, there was only one real rally driver on tha track

[@ropy89]

why is only 6th gear displayed on Block's Fiesta ? o.O

[@Poonard]

maybe nascar just isn't for everyone? I LOVE Rallycross, Nascar, the cars are awesome....here, the races are awesome!

[@Tanner69Foust]

GRC has improved in 2013 but still lot of work to do, red flags, that horrible invention of the penalty box etc...

[@JoroJugga]

I can see you do not know how 4wd car handles. On wet surface you have to whip the car sideways with either e-brake or normal brakes, followed with stepping on gas. Otherwise car pushes straight forward. Now because pastrana was door to door with toomas, toomas couldnt oversteer the car. On situation like this, you can either just go forward as long as you get rid of a car on your side. Or just fully stop your car, which is obviously not an option.

[@theheat12345678910]

never said i did lol and considering they don't make cars anymore i was surprised

[@trialsted]

Another fine European motorsport established for over 30 years re-branded and reduced to a mere shell of its original self by the Americans. Also, if it's based exclusively in the US, how is it global?!

[@wdavis6814]

trialsted Keep crying, you only make us stronger.

[@razormc954]

For the record, just because a motorsport like NASCAR may look simple to you Europeans doesn't mean it is, those cars are incredibly hard to drive, and we also have some pretty demanding circuits like Laguna Seca or Road America

[@alexd442]

trialsted not all the drivers and tracks are American

[@AccAkut1987]

Charlotte Motor Speedway Texas Motor Speedway X Games Los Angeles New Hampshire Motor Speedway Las Vegas Motor Speedway I miss the 'global' in here

[@LouSassles]

So how many Jet Dryers you crashed into? Juan.......

[@RenandeAngelis]

Toomas Topi Heikkinen is RIDICULOUS, what he did to TRAVIS PASTRANA 199 was really LOW TOOMAS U NEED TO LEARN TO RESPECT THE LEGENDS TRAVIS PASTRANA 199 THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@thedoodlebug123]

IKR!!!! they're just pointing out the obvious

[@racingcarsmedia]

well i definitely wasnt trying to say he's the next Mcrae, but keeping pace with gronholm like that, and even gaining in some areas is no small feat either. He still has potential, just needs to work the kinks out of his mental game i think, and stay calm when the pressure is on.

[@cardude1992]

Marcus Gronholm! Legend!

[@maikicba]

Block crashed alone, on the other hand look at 1.04.50 how gronholm is being push and even there he could control his car on a turn. That small things make him a world class driver. Nothing against ken block, I knew him, in cordoba, argentina,during the Argentina Rally, and he is a great guy, I just simple say that is really far of being the world´s best driver.

[@theheat12345678910]

Is that a rally SAAB??

[@DeCePtAcOnS31]

ruuuuuuruuuuurrrrr schuuuureddd BOOOMMMMM!!!!

[@CPeperak]

Tanner is at least going to win a couple races

[@JoroJugga]

There is no such thing as respect in rallycross. When you drive 550hp 4wd in partially wet and partially REALLY dry track, side by side full throttle, you make mistakes. In 0.01 seconds your car may go right when even when you want to go left. This is really common when you brake into corner. I can assure you that toomas did not mean to crash out pastrana

[@skogpekka]

Glad you like it! -Now do a bit of youtubing' on Martin Schanche, Sverre Isachsen and Kenneth Hansen ;D

[@hax0r117]

As tragic as it is, I'm almost getting used to Travis Pastrana getting punted off of the track by someone.

[@dx6789]

He is actually Finnish

[@chunder27]

Why did it have to be Moody!

[@EBBluey]

I didn't really see the whole rally CROSS part... All tarmac plus some puddles..

[@imavettelfan]

awesome, thanks for uploading :)

[@pluxtheduck]

Montoya - F1 champion? Really? Really? They didn't make that mistake did they?

[@rallysoob]

Daaayammm block. what the heck did you think would happen pushin that much thottle on water? should of braked and tried coast through that wet part for half second loss maybe. dang it

[@mynameisray]

Can block Finish a race without crashing once?? I love watching the guy but god damn he can't do rally, he should stick to hooning

[@zottenpedj]

is it me or does ken block crash a lot?!

[@TeraStrataGeM]

Be proud to do a big jump, to ... make shit the next corner !!!

[@D4NG3RW0W]

If you are Commentating for an American audience, you have to speak like an american. Americans pronounce things wrong unfortunately. Tomato = Toematoe, Hyundai = Hunday. >.

[@Mart-Man]

Montoya is a former F1 champion? Since when?

[@TeamNoLimits865]

if i had a dollar for every time they said, "Discount Tire, AMERICA'S Tire hairpin," i could buy myself a set of tires

[@aaardyyy]

jump looks dangerous :X

[@Billinous]

WOW! RC is just too exciting and unpredictable!
