Ken Block teamed up with DC shoes to make this epic video that looks straight out of a Need for Speed, or Forza Motorsport video game for your Xbox, Playstation, or iPhone.
In the video, he pulls some ridiculous gymkhana moves, drifting and showing off his incredible prowess behind the wheel in shot after shot after shot. The corner he takes at the 1:32 mark is absolutely insane at the speed he's going. But when he starts driving like that down the streets of San Francisco, you'd think this footage is ripped right from any of the Fast and the Furious movies with Vin Diesel and Paul Walker.
Over a four-day period, Block somehow managed to have downtown San Francisco blocked off from regular traffic, and when Travis Pastrana rolls in on his dirt-bike, you'll start to understand why the general public had to be kept away. These guys do some of the craziest stunts I've ever seen, and within five minutes of this epic video you'll be seeing the truth in the saying "if you're not out of control, you're not in control."
As Block continues to drive through the downtown area in his trusty Ford Fiesta, some of the moves he pulls are truly jaw-dropping. He really shows control of his car as he plays around in his urban playground. The drifts he manages around the trolly car and at the 5:00 mark had me fist pumping so hard that I spilled my Monster energy drink all over my keyboard!
Block drives with such intensity that when he hits a particularly hard ramp, one of his GoPro cameras actually falls off. Wish they had that footage!
What did you think of this fast, focused, raw driving action pulled off by Block? Have you ever seen something like this before that wasn't on Nitro Circus, or in a video game like Gran Turismo? I know I haven't!
Make sure to watch the incredible video below if you love drifting!
