Ken Block's Monster Fiesta

Ken and the Monster World Rally Team will campaign 7 rally events in North America in 2010 for Ford, including the Summer X Games in August. Block will drive his 2011 Ford Fiesta based on the race-winning European Rallycross Fiesta prepared by Olsbergs Motorsports Evolution.

“I am very excited to finally be in the Fiesta,” said Block. “The Fiesta is the car that beat me last summer at X Games. Ford has a great platform with the Fiesta, and I can’t wait to see what I can do in the Rally America championship and at the X Games later this year.”


Block’s Fiesta is powered by a 2.0L turbocharged engine capable of producing 850 hp at 8,000 rpm, but due to a required turbo-inlet restrictor by the 2009 Summer X Games, the Fiesta will be running in the range of 650 hp.
