Yeah, a bunch of people on RS25 were complaining calling him a traitor.


I told them I was hating Ken Block before it was cool...

That picture is like the first time I have seen his face outside a helmet and sunglasses. He reminds me of a mole rat. That is all.

Meh...i still don't understand all the hate and dislike Block gets. It's not like he has ever been a cocky douche. He has just been a humble guy having fun with racing and other auto antics.

I think the attention was good for Subaru. Subaru doesn't generate a majority of sales from the WRX or the STi. So with Pastrana and Block making them popular with the youth, I say that's a good way to get more sales and possibly get special Impreza models in the US. Just a thought though.

The problem was never really w/ Block. It was with the brodawg fan base he dragged into the Subaru enthusiast scene that made the STi so mainstream fanboi it's basically lost all its previous charm.

Imprezas used to be owned mostly by 20-30 something professionals. Now they're idolized by 15-20 year old Gran Turismo playing brohams. I guess it is what it is, but I don't see the car as a means to meet people I prefer to socialize with any longer because people like me are no longer the majority fan base.

There's always chess club.

Being in a fraternity and interacting with members of other fraternities, I can't really say that they're brodawg. I know some brodawg guys and a majority of the people attracted to scoobies are wannabies.

Idk I think the brodawg thing has always been an issue, they just used to stick in the evo crowd lol

Or Friday night Bingo. Or Live action role playing...
