DRIFTING AROUND LAMBOS?


Block perfected the art of perfect donuts makes every petrol head think to themselves: “I want to drive like Ken Block.”

He is also Need For Speed's racing advisor and built the ultimate gymkhana grid course – “a real-life playground to showcase the sheer speed, fun and exhilarating action of driving.”

In the video, Block takes on a wrecking ball, drifts around two Lamborghini Aventadors and evades the videogame-themed Redview County cops on Segways in his 2013 Ford Fiesta ST RX43.

His Fiesta produces 485kW and 880Nm, rides on Fifteen52 18x9 Turbomac Pirelli Zero tyres and sprints from 0-100km/h in just 1.8 seconds.
