  • Gymkhana 3, Ken Blocks Fiesta

    Man, talk about one seriously BA Fiesta. Ken has the best job in the world.

    Shot just south of Paris, France in Linas at l'Autodrome de Linas --Montlhéry, this 1.58 mile oval track, built in 1924, features banks as steep as 51 degree...

    By the way, ^^^ That's 99.9% city driving :cool:

          personally i think he's decent
          not saying i could do better but he was way out of line on alot of things
          plus you can tell that isn't one run
          wonder how many hours of footage they shot to make that
          am i the only one who saw him clock that wall near the very beginning?

            Did I see a side exhaust? For all the [insert expletive of your choice here] that said side exhausts look trashy

            And Blade, glad you mention that you couldn't do better. Some people might have gotten confused thinking that you could.

              Yeah i seen him do that to.
              And yeah see all the other skid marks from the previous runs he did.
              But i still like watching it pretty sweet to watch.

                Those vids are all taken with multiple runs. Look at his previous vids.
                Still, it takes a lot of practice and skill to do that stuff.

                      AWD yes.

                      And i think the fact that they showed him clip the wall from multiple angles says to me they left it in that take on purpose, probably to show that nobody is perfect. It's not about perfection, it's about being on the ragged edge of control.

                          every day

                          I drive like that to work every day.
                          The boss hates when I do a double doughnut into the parking space beside his car.

                          Just kidding.
                          I like the small digital speedo.
