DC SHOES: Ken Block's Gymkhana THREE, Part 2; Ultimate Playground; l'Autodrome, France

Shot just south of Paris, France in Linas at l'Autodrome de Linas --Montlhéry, this 1.58 mile oval track, built in 1924, features banks as steep as 51 degrees, which is more than double the standard incline of most NASCAR ovals. Chosen by Ken for this specific reason, the ramp-like banking proved to be a unique and exciting challenge. The driving physics for the stunts performed were totally unknown until Ken attempted the maneuvers during filming.

RIP to the GOAT. This video was the very thing to begin my taste in cars and love for driving like a madman. I hope his family and friends can take some solace in knowing how many people Ken inspired.

From young kids, who are just starting to get into cars to veterans who been in this sport for years. Thank you for the many years of passion and excitement. RIP Ken Block

[@Blaza303]

My first ever exposure to him, i grew up playing Dirt 3, watching his gymkhana videos and was thrilled everytime he appeared on the Hoonigans, to say he'll be missed is an understatement

Same man ,i still play dirt 3 and i love It.

[@yongling9825]

Whenever I play Gymkhana in that game, most of the time, I picked his Fiesta.

This gymkhana is the reason why a lot of Fiestas in our country got rallyfied instead of stanced. RIP, Ken. I'll always have a core memory of your Gymkhana vids with me til I die.

[@typhoon5000]

This is still the best Gymkhana out of the series IMO. I just think there's something about it being about pure driving technique and less about special effects. This one is more like a Guy Richie film where the new ones are more like Michael Bay, you know what I mean?

Ken Block's famous quote: "I love the smell of burns tyres in the morning. You know, one time we drifted on 51 degree steep banks. When it was all over, I walked up.
