Block is Back: Gymkhana Two!

By John Coyle

Deputy Editor

Ken Block’s follow up to his classic Gymkhana video has been highly anticipated, and now, the wait is over! So today’s big question? Did he top part one or not? To be honest, I’m not quite sure, but with Hollywood-level explosions, tons of glamor shots of his Crawford Performance Subie, and a cameo by DC teammate Rob Dyrdek, it’s pretty clear he tried damn hard. I think my favorite part is where he uses his rear wheel to snatch a balloon from the dummy’s hand. The way you can see him looking out the window and lining it up is just classic. Enjoy.

I think I just like the black & blue car better, the white just doesn’t go well with green & black.

Send me to the gallows, but I like the new hatch. I’ve always liked the Scooby wagons though, all the way back to the 80’s. Does kinda remind of the old Focus WRC car of a few years back though.

Also, who drifts BACKWARDS? Good show sir, good show indeed…

Great driving, but I like the first one better. Much smoother driving and none of the b.s. special effects.

Nice video, his the best in video editing when it comes to this. but still he did not prove to win in wrc N4. Hope fully he can drive A8 WRC car let us hope he can defeat the 5 time world champion.

but good job, well done, hurray! still waiting for more auto enertainment courtesy of K.B..

I agree, godlike driving, but the new model WRX STI looks like shit when compared to the 07 and earlier. Of course there’s no way in hell I’d refuse the car LOL!

so whats with all the Flash? I dont understand the point of the waterbaloons, Paintball Gun or Lightbulbs. But Cool to see the Subaru running around though…too bad it looks like a cross between a Ford Focus and Mazda 3.

That was sooo sick!! Too bad the new Impreza is soo damn ugly, but still a kick ass car.

Only gripe is that el header. rest is great. Why is that 1 guy walking around with no mask on at the end? That ish is not good for your health to breathe in.

By far the best video ive seen in awhile!

If they cut out the “special” effects this video would have been a lot better. Still pretty damn awesome though and am fenced between the first video and this one. He must make love to his car every night to fully understand what it can do.

Damn, Ken Block has got some insane skills. I Love the multiple camera angles he has for this video. I also like the fact that Rob Dyrdek was in this video as well. My favorite part would have to be when Rob was shooting Ken’s windshield with the paintball gun. I wonder what there gonna do next??????????????????????????????????????
