Hell yeah I watched that the other day. Ken Block is a beast.

And limiter is referring to the rev limiter, and how he's pretty much red lining that ford the entire video.

They are fun to watch because nobody puts anything like them out. But there are a couple of things that irk me about them as a car enthusiast. First like other have mentioned - he bangs off the rev limiter constantly. As a automotive enthusiast it is like nails on a chalk board. Second he isn't precise at all - Hits the wall at 1:25, drives over the grass at 1:35, hits the cone at 2:18, drives over the grass (again) 2:24, curbs it 3:52, hits the gravel at 4:36, turfs it 5:28. That stuff takes away from the awesomeness that the videos are.

He does do stuff that is pure eyecandy. Those "drifts" on the wall are amazing, some of the turns are poetry in motion, as well as some of his car control like in the boxed off areas (I couldn't do it to save my life - but I would have a huge grin trying). From what I have seen about him, he seems like a really cool guy. I would trade lives with him in a second if I could bring my wife, son, and dog with me. :) I hope his driving gets "cleaner" in the next vid so I can just sit and drool instead of being distracted.

^this. Ive been a fan of ken block for a long time and ive gotta say that although the video was cool, It was sloppy as shit. The only reason im gonna give him a pass is cause this is his first gymkhana vid with the new Ford. I completely perfer the subaru over that ford any day, But he can still drive the fuck out of it.
