As much as i hate the monster energy/ ken block nut riders, thats pretty cool. Takes some balls and skill to go that fast on gravel.

You just insulted a Canadian member in good standing.  Expect his declaration of surrender forthwith!

it is a great video, and ken block has done very well for himself, but in europe he isn't very competetive.

I was insinuating Lowerit with his Monster/DC themed GRM car, but fuck it you'll do in a pinch.

I don't care who you are, and how good the driver is- if you're in the passenger seat, you definitely shit yourself.

Well it's probably 330whp with a mountain of torque, for that engine size.

553ft/lbs according to the same site.

what do they rev to?
rough calcs say that 330hp comes on at 3000rpm @553ft lbs

so anything after 3000 revs the torque must be dropping off as fast as the revs are going up. defeats the purpose of a turbo.

Nope, the WRC cars switched to 1.6L turbo's for the 2011 season.  They used to be 2.0L turbos.

533*6000/5252=608 hp, thats probably the torque on an unrestricted version of the car

Moving away from the Focus nameplate used in the past, M-Sport (who has built Ford’s WRC cars for years now) has developed a completely new car that’s designed to work within a brand new FIA rulebook. The new 2011 car is about more than just working with a smaller chassis; it also has to comply with new engine and chassis rules. The biggest change is the new 1.6-liter turbo engine, which produces 300hp and 332 lb/ft of torque. Since the engine is forced to breathe through a tiny 33mm air restrictor, limiting the power output, M-Sport raises the boost level and plays with the torque output of the engine.
