It seems like every time Ken block gets behind the wheel of a car, carnage seems to follow. Not to say that is a bad thing, this is a man who can push the turbo in a turbocharger equipped car to the limit. In this new installment of the of Gymkhana he shows off a more Hollywood side of insane driving. Driving through walls and dealing with giant gorrillas and even Jaws makes an appearance.
The car used for all this mayhem is a 2011 Ford Festiva, now that may sound like a recipe for disaster. There is one major thing to consider with this Festiva…and that is that it has been built specifically for this type of driving. The vehicle has been built for drifting and not only is it pushed to over 400HP it also sports a light weight wait frame that would make a Lamborghini Superleggera jealous. On top of all that the car is outfitted with a 4WD set up and it has been wide-bodied to boot.
Ken Block himself considered one of the best drift/rally drivers in the world is a master of car control and every video in this series proves it. What is so great about this series of videos is that they not only admit to being completely about advertising the products but they are an internet sensation. Basically the videos show what can be down with a completely built drift car and an amazing ability to control a vehicle at ridiculous speeds. Our hat is off to Ken Block and his team for creating yet another video that will keep us entertained for years to come.
