Here’s a rare one for you.

This clip shows the legendary Ken Block stacking his Ford Focus RS WRC into the trees at M-Sport’s proving ground (Greystoke Forest, UK) during a test run before his final race at Rally GB.  During the run, he and co-driver Alex Gelsomino caught a perfect storm of standing water, slush and mud and were hydroplaned into the trees.

All glory aside, driving a 650 HP missile over mud, water and slush isn’t going to be what you’d call predictable.  I bet these cars get binned more than the YouTube celebrity videos would have you believe.
