Ken Block and precision driving go together like copy and paste. In association with the long-in-the-tooth Need for Speed franchise, the king of hoon presents the sixth outing of Gymkhana.

Titled as the “Ultimate Gymkhana Grid Course”, Block jumps slides his heavily modified 650-horsepower Ford Fiesta ST 2013 through shipping containers, under parked excavators, and even has a close call with a wrecking ball (Miley Cyrus sadly not included).

While it might not have the pageantry of Gymkhana 4, it’s still a showcase of his incredible driving skills. If the sound of backfires and tyre squeals is music to your ears, then you’ll love Gymkhana 6. Check it out below.

Little did I know, but a hoon is a derogatory term used to describe someone who likes to drive fast and/or dangerously. Ken Block is known as a veritable master of hoonage and in his latest video, Mr. Block makes the backlot of Universal Studios his playground. Shot in an explosive Hollywood style, Block is on fire as he crashes his modified Ford Fiesta through buildings, avoids animatronic sharks, and runs circles around a Segway-driving simian. If this is your kind of thing, then here’s nine minutes of Ken Block doing what he does best in GYMKHANA FOUR: THE HOLLYWOOD MEGAMERCIAL.
