Top Gear goes for a ride with Ken Block

July 6th, 2009 by Derek

James May (Top Gear) visits Ken Block

Ken Block has achieved Internet fame with his gymkhana drifting practice videos. For guys (and gals) who aren’t afraid of having a little grease embedded in their fingerprints, Ken Block’s videos are simply visual artistry in motion.

Well, it seems that the producers at Top Gear were impressed with Ken’s skills and promptly send James May across the pond to the U.S. for a lesson in drifting - Ken Block style. Unless you’ve been camping out in Outer Mongolia or are still using a 56k dial-up Internet connection, you’ve probably seen Ken Block’s gymkhana practice video. As an added bonus, Ricky Carmichael (10 time motocross champion) literally jumps in and “BAM!”, kicks it up a notch Emeril-style.

    This is simply unbelievable!! The best in car video production get together. I’ve recently discovered Ken Block and the Gymkana videos. And I’m a long time fan of Top Gear. James May is the perfect match here as his expressions are priceless.

    I wonder how many takes this took? The ending is spectacular.
