A) This is parenting done right. Explain, encourage, let them struggle, encourage some more, celebrate the near victories, celebrate the big victories, remind them of progress. B) I think the world will miss Ken Block. RIP dude.
i think sometimes she had a driving class just for a formality 😅 driving teacher : "nice driving , where you learned it?" "my dad" "who is he?" "block" "who is block?" "KEN BLOCK" *driving teacher : i'm not supposed to be here*
Every other 13 year old girl doing donuts in the passenger seat: ear piercing screach Lia: straight faced, mad focused watching dads technique I love it!
Easy to do when someone else is paying for the clutch, transmission and tires. My father and everyone else's here would fucking hang me like a pig if I overclutched and/or stalled like that. We don't got sponsorships in real life you see.
Actually I never liked the guys but after this video I now have great respect for him. Not for his driving skills but for his father skills. Amazing work!
Imho, it heavily depends on the "hobby". When you're get used doing hard stuff that costs tons of money and effort to practice only, not talking about repairs and upgrades - well, it teaches you a lot. Being humble, being focused, grind this thing everyday really hard, understand how things work and what processes are going on... and if you're beginner, you wait until spare parts come up when you mess up your gear, count your money and days until next purchase, etc. And when you are decades in this, and even managed to earn some fame and money doing your thing on top of that - welp, you're sure thing know shit about it. You know how hard it can be, and how much sweat and tears are left behind to get here. You sure will be easy on someone new, taking first steps, and will try to support him/her/them, knowing that he/she/they really gonna need that support, especially in the begining.
I just hope she’s okay and has some peace of mind and really good memories of her father. When I heard the news this was the first video I thought of. This video just puts the biggest smile on my face. Don’t worry Ken, after watching this and seeing the spark in her eye, I can promise you that your legacy will live on. RIP
She raced at cleetus mcfarlands race event yesterday and cleetus did a huge 300 drone tribute for her dad at the end of the race , it’s on TH-cam and a beautiful emotional tribute. Seeing her get out there and actually racing in an event shows such strength and her determination in taking on the Hoonigan brand,..I’m SO happy for her that she and Ken have been driving together and getting her into the Hoonigan drag races etc since 13 years old. Ken apparently gave her the Hoonicorn and that’s why she’s been driving it in the this verses that “ episodes. She’ll take it on and over and I believe this will be SO good for her in staying close to her dad in spirit . I think she’s going to be a legendaryWRC driver, she’s already KILLING it in the rally events she’s done . They live up the canyon from me and man they’re in our prayers and Lens so massively missed . I know people posting comments like yours really help them. Rest in peace Ken, love you Lea! 💜
@Fiffel Tomte I don't think it was confidence. Just nerves. Ken block is her dad, imagine having to live up to that name. It's alot of pressure on a 13 year old that only learnt to drive a stick shift 3 days prior. She done extremely well.
@Fiffel Tomte I can't speak for her, but I know I would be the same in that situation. I absolutely love driving, nothing entertains me as much as empty backroads and open highways, but my enthusiasm is almost not visible. I often get told "you don't seem exited" or "is that really what you want to do, you don't seem to enjoy it", but I just am not extremely verbal about it. Especially if you shove a camera in my face, while I'm concentrating.
Salute ken! Great father... But im confius want to take my daughter in my profession... 😂😂😂.. Not a motorsports but electrical engineering😂😂😂.. I hope only my son can run my business, if my destiny stop any moment... But he still 2year old...

You will get the reward from something never expect, believe me.. When you are truth with poor live and you think you need help.. But if you spend your money or other stuff to help people, Your income will increase without knowing from where you got the opportunity or eroperty even a huhe money..... Try it, i guareenty you all will fell like im do, But must do with its simplicity.... Should try it..
Favorite part about KB was he didn’t sideline or abandon his family chasing his dreams. They were part of his dreams clearly and he shared his world with them. Epic father
I had to come back to this one after hearing that Ken died. Watching him burn rubber inspired me as a hot rodder, but watching him spend time with his daughter, teaching her how to drive (not just drive but really drive) inspired me to be the same kind of father for my kids. Ken was larger than life, his legacy is immense & he will be missed. Much respect.
Lia: *Drives the stick after learning it three days ago in a 350hp car" Ken: "Okay, this is good, but let's try to perfect the doughnuts around the cone after half a day practicing" They are awesome! Cheers!
My dad compared the miles to how much gas i used to see if i was driving it normally or just flooring it all the time 😂 Imaging her coming home with the car and checks the tires and says see how much rubber is still on those things? This is unacceptable. I should be seeing metal instead of rubber 🤣
@@gileee If some asshole gets to mess with her OR her car, there's a high possibility of this happen: Ken will bring the whole Hoonigan squad, beat his ass in front of the whole school, tie him up to the hood of the Hoonicorn and give him a ride of hell. That guy will NEVER want to get close to her or even a car again.
Imagine getting to be taught to do donuts by ken block, but with the added bonus of being so comfortable with him as a person...cause he's your dad. Lucky girl, great dad, awesome video.
Takes me back to a 91 mustang, locking the gate behind us at a lake landing...'twas much like rally driving in Ireland (poles/trees EVERYWHERE; NO room for error)

I love the way, when Ken is driving, that Lia just studies what Ken is doing with his hands and feet without a care in the world that the car is spinning. Great father daughter moments.

That's kinda like how my uncle got his truck licence. He was what one may call a 'wild' youngster who has issues with some of the local traffic police (back then regular 'Police' didn't deal with traffic but there was a parallel 'Traffic Police' enforcement body. My grandfather had a large sheep station and my uncle would drive the stock trucks, with trailers, into town for sale, and one of the local traffic cops would pull him in regularely and give the truck a thorough going over to try and ticket my uncle. After a couple of years of this my uncle turned 18 and went in to get his heavy licence and for the practical road test he got the same officer - who took one look at him and said something along the lines of 'You b*****d, I never thought of checking your licence - well, I guess you can drive, here's your licence'. When I got mine, there were a bunch of us from work going through - I'd driven a truck once on the road (often in the yard while working on them, though) and never with a trailer and I had to, literally, drive round the block while the officer filled the pass form out. For some of the 'special' licences, it was driving a cable layer from where it was parked, across the yard, and back into the park spot again. Easiest licences I ever got!

How amazing that Lea has these BEAUTIFUL moments and so much time with him on film!! This footage is gold and means so much! I’m SO stoked to teach my 15 year old and my 5 year old baby daughter. Being a dad of daughters is the greatest experience and happiness I could possibly imagine l
Feel_the_Beat if you have more kids you need family cars. If it's just you and her/him/them, you can both get a sweet jdm coupe each and not have to worry.
It''s so awesome that they shared this little moment with everyone. I just fear Ken's fans might give Lia some hell sized racing boots to fill, but Lia... just remember forget about everyone of us and have fun like dad did and like how you did with dad. Make your own life how you want it to be, it is your life to begin with. Stay strong, stay happy!
Ken : okay we are in the open, so you can gas as much as you want... Ohh Lord all mighty ! How i wish to be Ken son, right there.. ok dad hold on & watch me.. i will floor it & spin it until we run out of gas or the wheels roll on rims ! ;0)
Straight smile on my face seeing how he is as a father, and most importantly a very understanding and patient teacher to his daughter here. So awesome to see her get it down toward the end! I can see then doing a tandem shred video before she even has her actual license lol
Right I loved the part of her I’m I little scared not sure about how much gas to give it his reply give it as much as you want.. this is truly my favorite video of the year.. father daughter bonding at its best right there...
When she starts dating, she's gonna pick her date up. And at the end of the date, she's gonna see if she can make them cry to determine if they're worth a second date.

Clerk: "Miss, the helmet won't be necessary and there's noone willing to assist you, can you just stand at the corner for your DL picture... Thank you... NEXT!!"
Dude I was smiling so much when she was finally getting it. So tight! Learned how to drive a manual 3 days ago and then got some donuts in shortly afterwards, damn that was awesome to watch.
What an amazing father he was.. I am hoping that Lia can get back on her feet to continue her incredible journey in the industry. Much Love for the block family
Also watching her take in everything observing her dad on the test run continually checking his feet... her mind is on point taking it all in. Impressive.

First day of driver’s ed
Lia: “Yeah, my dad, Ken Block maybe you heard of him, taught me how to drive”
Driver’s ed teacher: “Nope, I’m out”

"my dad"
"who is he?"
"block"
"who is block?"
"KEN BLOCK"

This comment is on point.
This made me laugh 🤣
@Pira Pira Well i don't think so....with normal driving you don't go searching for apexes in a corner 😂

when you grow up around something that can be scary for other people, it can seem normal to you. I'd say shes used to it by now
Not once did he raise his voice or belittle her just 100% support, what an awesome father you are Ken

Next episode: Ken Block teaches his 13 year old daughter to drive his 1500hp Mustang
That would be awesome !!!!!
Oh god that would be hilarious
That would be lit but that’s a extra 1200 hp of what she just drove
That would be a great idea just a little bit of more power :P
They would have to detune it down to just 800 hp. JUST 800 hp. That's not a lot.
some guy in the future: try to impress her with a hand brake turn
Lia: turns up 10 minutes later with the hoonicorn
I'll be dead if that happens to me
If Ken would let her drive the hoonicorn
Hahahahahaha
"you call THAT a handbrake turn? I could do better than that at 13"
I do feel bad for anyone trying to impress her in the future with car stuff. "ummm do you know who my Dad is and you bring me this weak ass driving?!"

She was able to put his instructions straight to the controls too. Very impressive.

Imagine when she goes back to school and tells everyone "I learned to drive, shift and drift better than your parents"
😂😂
Better than anybody in the school
Than you peasants
@@WhyAreYouUpset that sounds better... take that prius driving boomers
Good Lord, She already shifts better than I do and I've been driving stick since I was 17... 24 years later...
190 dislikes, that's 190 people who dislike the fact they are not Ken Block's daughter
Haters gunna hate. I'd do alot to have a chance to drive Ken's car.
@@daddyslittlegirl1976 i will never understand why people dislike certain videos. some of the most wholesome, family first, happy videos have dislikes, and i want to slap those people
Or that they're not Ken Block
this is a great comment haha
God damn right Darren Liggett
It melted my heart when he pulled the E brake for her to keep her in the slide.
ken block seems like a cool dad, not cos he's just teaching his daughter how to drift or donut but he's such a great supportive teacher.
yeah, the kind of dad to be supportive in anything his kids do.
If my dad randomly took me out to do fucking donuts in a 400 horsepower ford escort I’d be pumped af
I feel like Ken had more fun seeing her learn than driving himself.
agreed, it's one thing to flip the cars around but teaching someone a new skill, and giving his daughter a fun experience, good times.
Im sure it gives him a good memory and comparison to when he was learning himself.
Thats so sweet hehe 😅👍
ikr, it’s so wholesome
I feel the same thing when I learn a new person how to drive manual! It's so much fun when they don't stall for the first time !
Imagine the driver's ED instructor giving the test her lol....Whos your dad?....Ken Block...oh heres your license haha
That's kinda like how my uncle got his truck licence. He was what one may call a 'wild' youngster who has issues with some of the local traffic police (back then regular 'Police' didn't deal with traffic but there was a parallel 'Traffic Police' enforcement body. My grandfather had a large sheep station and my uncle would drive the stock trucks, with trailers, into town for sale, and one of the local traffic cops would pull him in regularely and give the truck a thorough going over to try and ticket my uncle. After a couple of years of this my uncle turned 18 and went in to get his heavy licence and for the practical road test he got the same officer - who took one look at him and said something along the lines of 'You b*****d, I never thought of checking your licence - well, I guess you can drive, here's your licence'.
When I got mine, there were a bunch of us from work going through - I'd driven a truck once on the road (often in the yard while working on them, though) and never with a trailer and I had to, literally, drive round the block while the officer filled the pass form out. For some of the 'special' licences, it was driving a cable layer from where it was parked, across the yard, and back into the park spot again.
Easiest licences I ever got!
@@gordowg1wg145 loll..sure
@@jhondiick4202 NZ in the fifies for him, seventies for me - to quote L.P. Hartley, “The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.”.
Imagine going for your driver's test and your instructor just says: who's your daddy?
@@gordowg1wg145 yeah NZ genuinely was like that, I know of a few similar examples. Definitely nothing like that here these days though, PC gone mad here now
How amazing that Lea has these BEAUTIFUL moments and so much time with him on film!! This footage is gold and means so much! I’m SO stoked to teach my 15 year old and my 5 year old baby daughter. Being a dad of daughters is the greatest experience and happiness I could possibly imagine l
Just imagine having Ken Block as your dad.
Would be awesome xD
"My Dad's cooler than your Dad!"
"No he's not!"
"My dad's Ken Block"
Well........crap.
@@MrDaChicken "my dad has a GTR"
Sorry but I had to, I recently saw that video again😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dat would be sooo much fun, but I can’t say anything because my dad is a rally driver and drifter.
My dad has diabetes
I love that this video is basically 16 minutes of Ken being proud of his daughter. I would be too.
She’s gonna be the type to make her husband a stay at home dad while she’s a pro drifter I didn’t expect to nearly hit 900 likes
Wouldn't be so bad. If my girl was we could tandem. What a dream
She's a top yeah
Or she and her parter would be a drift couple with no kids hahahahaha
Feel_the_Beat if you have more kids you need family cars. If it's just you and her/him/them, you can both get a sweet jdm coupe each and not have to worry.
I’m your 666 like
The look of proudness on Ken's face when she nailed it around the cone was golden! Well done Lia 3 days into learning clutch
This is wholesome, and tire burning.
Honestly so wholesome
Would love to see pedal cam, rally drivers tap dance
It's so cute watching a father try to teach his kids things.
Seeing how enthusiastic he was for her was special, what a father and a legend🏆
It''s so awesome that they shared this little moment with everyone. I just fear Ken's fans might give Lia some hell sized racing boots to fill, but Lia... just remember forget about everyone of us and have fun like dad did and like how you did with dad. Make your own life how you want it to be, it is your life to begin with. Stay strong, stay happy!
Lia: 1st time drifting and she doesnt brakes anything
Hert: +5 years drifting and he still breaks the twerkstallion in many drift events
elgabiAE86 she kept the hood on +10 point for her
Yeah totally the same thing right 🤦♂️😂
That's a tough tarmac rally car not kuki cutter thrown together rx7 🤣
Ken : okay we are in the open, so you can gas as much as you want...
Ohh Lord all mighty ! How i wish to be Ken son, right there.. ok dad hold on & watch me.. i will floor it & spin it until we run out of gas or the wheels roll on rims ! ;0)
It's bc hert is broke inside
This was wholesome. Never was a huge Block fan, but this changed my mind lol.
Nice to see bud 👍
Same here
Welcome. lmao
He just so humble right?
I can’t be the only one who flinched when her arm broke, right?
where!?
@@joshpierce6782 4:04
that was so fuckin brutal
She seems pretty badass for a 13 year old.
Right!!!
"gas, gas gas" - my father never told me that - it was always just "release the clutch slower, then you don't need the gas"
thas soo funny
Just when i thought this man couldnt get anymore wholesome
A proud moment, and historic too. We just witnessed the next generation at her start! Well done Ken, HOON ON!
The man could drive, but his obvious love of spending time with his daughter is what made him great to me. RIP
Her genuine “happy to be here” energy does a lot for this video. Wholesome drift content, I love it
Ken is so proud of her too, this video is just the best thing 😂
I've never wanted to be a 13 year old girl before today
but even if you were your dad doesnt scoot tires nor will let you even sit in the front seat
100th like of your comment
I've never wanted to be your similarly aged sister before today.
@@robertbrooks1575 creep
@@robertbrooks1575 hahaha 😆
Straight smile on my face seeing how he is as a father, and most importantly a very understanding and patient teacher to his daughter here. So awesome to see her get it down toward the end! I can see then doing a tandem shred video before she even has her actual license lol
Right I loved the part of her I’m I little scared not sure about how much gas to give it his reply give it as much as you want.. this is truly my favorite video of the year.. father daughter bonding at its best right there...
holding back tears every video.... I can only imagine how his family feels right now. That is an amazing father right there... Rest in paradise.
When she starts dating, she's gonna pick her date up. And at the end of the date, she's gonna see if she can make them cry to determine if they're worth a second date.
Hahaha truee
Puke bags in the door son....
Can I be her first date?....
That made my day, great dad and a great daughter.
I heard that Ken’s kids were born with a driver’s license
Don’t need one at a track
Yup
Lmao.. Now that's funny !
@@haydenholcomb2490 not a normal one but you do need some form of license
Lmao!
Father daughter moments like these are priceless. These memories will last forever, and can never be bought. Way to go dad!
The ultimate father daughter drifting goal: tandems

Why

Gary wit 2 t's Leybo Next on motortrend: Give us money, we’re broke so we’re gonna take another free TH-cam series and make it cost money.
That is awesome! What an amazing experience for both of you.
Heresy, she'd obviously pull up in a hoonigan modded ford gt mk40. I dont think Ken would let her drive anything ferrari powered.
She going to become an insanely skilled driver. learns fast!
That was brilliant.
In the moments she needed to floor it I was yelling go go go go go! You're a top bloke, great dad and she's a cool kid. I'd love to see her in the hoonicorn. 😉
I’ve never been so proud of someone I’ve never met.
Only father to ever tell his daughter to go back to being aggressive while driving
don’t forget she’s only 13. he’s telling her to drive aggressively while under the legal age to even get a learner’s permit.
@@GodzUnit01 don't forget they're in a controlled environment, she's been driving competitively for years, and her dad also have control of the handbrake. 🤷🏿♂️
My gf's dad in LA always tells my gf that when she is driving. She's 22 tho haha.
@@GodzUnit01 bro it's not a problem when your father is *THE* Ken Block

98% of the clerks call lunch break, one fainted and doesn't needs immediate assistance, only the trainee clerk is left behind.
Clerk: "Miss, the helmet won't be necessary and there's noone willing to assist you, can you just stand at the corner for your DL picture... Thank you... NEXT!!"
First one to say this? "She's a chip off the ol' Block"
Boom!
Mic drop.👏
I laughed so hard
Bro comment this on every video
Tweet it to Ken on Twitter
Yeah dude! She's a Hoonigirl!
Imagine Gymkhana 12 with Ken Block and his daughter! That would be cool
Hoonigal?
GIRLIGAN 😂🤣🤣
T-shirt slogan there
Dude I was smiling so much when she was finally getting it. So tight! Learned how to drive a manual 3 days ago and then got some donuts in shortly afterwards, damn that was awesome to watch.
What an amazing father he was.. I am hoping that Lia can get back on her feet to continue her incredible journey in the industry. Much Love for the block family
for any motor head out there this is such a wholesome bonding experience
I like that she’s actually trying to learn and not being scared like other girls
i gona do crash test on you
Also watching her take in everything observing her dad on the test run continually checking his feet... her mind is on point taking it all in. Impressive.
Fingers crossed... wait 3 more years for the most Epic video of all,
