Ken Block - Gymkhana 7 - Wild In The Streets Of Los Angeles


Here it is boys and girls, Ken Block's Gymkhana 7 - Wild In The Streets Of Los Angeles!

Being my favorite out of the series, a few weeks ago I posted Ken Block's Gymkhana #5 from San Francisco in anticipation of the release of his newest masterpiece. Well, it's here and it's badass!


Featuring an absolutely insane, 100% custom built, all wheel drive 1965 Ford Mustang with 845 horsepower the likes of which you have never seen before, Gymkhana 7 is an all out assault on the asphalt of one of the US' most famous cities!

Right from the get go the intensity is ramped up to full throttle as Ken gets all four wheels of his Hoonicorn RTR pouring out smoke while holds the release switch in his left hand. With the engine screaming at 8,000 RPM, Ken presses the button and it's on like Donkey Kong.

Tearing out of the warehouse at god only knows what speed through a small opening with the cabin full of smoke, Ken pulls the handbrake and gives you the first taste of what this baby can do.


Capable of pulling moves off that I have never seen before, this is one Mustang that seriously makes use of it's four Monster tires! The way he gets her to spin around at the 6:30 mark is just plain physics defying and out of this world and the aerial shot from the copter above makes it even better! Shifting through sequential gears in about a second each, Ken's newest baby hits top speeds in scary times!

One of the best shots in the video is when Ken pulls into Randy's Donuts and proceeds to do donuts around the establishment, priceless! Another personal favorite is when Ken manages to loop around a killer low rider as it's hydraulics send it vertical, the timing! The guy operating the low rider does take a tiny step to the side too as Ken's coming, who can blame him!



With a massive cloud of smoke rising from underneath the equally massive overpasses of L.A to close things out., I would have to say that Ken Block and team definitely live up to the hype of the Gymkhana name with this one. Can't wait for the next installment now! Did somebody say London... shhh.



And as an added bonus as I'm feeling in the Christmas spirit, here is Boobkhana from Ken and team in Japan for you as well, enjoy!
