"Gymkhana" Pretty loose use of the word really. I sort of wish he would just go away.

Not really gymkhana, more like publicised hooning. Still better than the last 2 though...

This right here, it is not Gymkhana. The the man can drive fairly well regardless

Well he does get 50 runs at the same thing as you can see by the skid marks. Give anyone enough time and they could do that.
He struggles to finish rallies, is only in WRC because he owns the team, Has wrecked how many cars in rallies? Got beaten by Sebastion Leob by about 30s on a small autocross he designed.
To me hes a bit overrated...

Just proves that no matter how big a meathead someone is, throw enough money and enough sets of keys at them and eventually they'll win a race or two.
Cool sunroof bro...

But he's having a hell of a time in his one and only life time...
How can you knock that?
Many, many other teams have thrown millions at the WRC and not won an event either...with rated drivers....
If you had the money and that was your interest, wouldn't you?

Amen to that. Like him or not, if that was me I would totally do it. And probably only be as good as him or worse. I'm definitely never going to be a pro-driver due to talent, but if I could pay myself to do it I would for sure!

Im not trashing him for having fun but for misrepresenting Gymkhana.
