<a href="http://autoblog.com/make/ford">Ford</a> has released the fifth video in its <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/08/16/offspeed-pitch-richard-petty-joins-ken-block-aj-allmendinger-i/">43 Fiestas series</a>, and this time <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/09/10/video-43-fiestas-sweepstakes-kicks-off-with-excellent-nascar-vs/">Ken Block and AJ Allmendinger</a> have gone head-to-head to see who can do the best burnout. As always, Richard Petty himself is on hand to oversee the festivities. While you'd think Allmendinger's ridiculous V8-powered, rear-wheel drive NASCAR beast would be the de facto champion of lighting 'em up, Block's wee rally-sped Fiesta held its own this time <em>*ahem*</em> around. The Gymkhana champ fell back on his signature pirouette-around-a-fixed-object move to win an approving nod from the King himself. Not too shabby.<br />
<br />
This latest stunt is one in a series leading up to a massive prize giveaway that includes tickets to the Ford 300 Nationwide and Ford 400 NASCAR races and flat-screen televisions. Ford will also give one lucky winner the keys to a <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/fiesta">2011 Ford Fiesta</a>, and if the company happens to take the win at the Ford 400, it will give 43 lucky winners their own unique Fiesta. You can head over to the <a href="https://www.43fiestas.com/43Fiestas/registration.aspx">43 Fiestas site</a> for more details, and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/10/14/video-who-can-do-the-better-burnout-aj-allmendinger-or-ken-blo/#continued">hop the jump</a> for a look at the video.<br />
