If you remember, he helped Ford launch Mach-E marketing by driving the Mach-E prototype.





He also hooned the Mach-E 1400.

He was a neat dude. I loved the 2011 Fiesta shenanigans.

Ken's first Mach-e video was what got me focused on getting my own. Incredible skill, incredible passion and fun on display. Condolences to the Block family. RIP

I'm very very sad to hear this. I've watched all his videos over the years and his talent is unmatched. Ken's video of the Focus RS was what inspired me to purchase that car and to date, it was the most fun car to drive I've ever owned.

RIP Ken and thanks for all you have done from cars to Hoonigan to DC Shoes. ?

So sad to see this happen, makes me think of other talented motor racing people who go out in such a senseless way doing something they are a little less talented in. Makes me think of Davey Allison in a helicopter he was flying or Paul Walker of the Fast & Furious fame . ?

"His daughter Lia, 16, is a rally racer herself and competed in her first race at the age of 11. Lea has been competing for her father’s Hoonigan Racing since beginning her career. "

He lives on...

RIP to such a great role model. Ken started DC Shoes young and didn’t even start racing until he was 37!

He’ll be missed. It’s not often you find a talented businessman, race driver, and human being all in one package.

Kill All Tires Ken. RIP.
