Can Ken Block Gymkhana in a 6500lb Trophy Truck? The Answer is YES.

The first thought into Ken Block's head after driving the 1100hp Geiser Bros Trophy truck was: "That was rad...but can it Gymkhana? "
The obvious solution to this was to try it out and make this video. We went to Irwindale Speedway and set up a legitimate Gymkhana Grid course (the same layout used for 2013 x-games), brought out the Hoonigan crew, and spent the day thrashing - all in the name of science.
Because this is science, we needed something to compare the Trophy Truck's runs with. So we brought out 3x Formula Drift Champion - Chris Forsberg in his competition car to lay down a benchmark run. Just for safe measure, we got Hoonigan's very own, Hert to rip some laps in the "Shart Kart" to see what a more "normal" car could do.
Will this help Ken prepare for the 1000? Probably not. But it was a good excuse to hammer on a truck, rip donuts, and have a good time with our buds.
