Video: Ken Block shakes down the Ford Fiesta before 100 Acre Wood Rally

Rally driver Ken Block has a very special connection to the upcoming 100 Acre Wood Rally, which will take place this weekend. He won it four consecutive times in the last years, and is now aiming for a fifth win.

This time however, he’ll be wrangling the new rally-spec 2011 Ford Fiesta model on the dirt roads of the competition. As you all know if you’ve been following our Motorsport Weekend feature, the famous driver didn’t manage to finish the Sno*Drift rally because the suspension on the Fiesta broke down.

Now, he and his co-pilot, Alex Gelsomino, are giving the rally car a proper shakedown at the SayersBrook Bison Ranch before the 100 Acre Wood competition. Hit the jump to enjoy this great footage of proper gravel rallying.
