"Please Hoon Responsibly" begs the disclaimer at the top of Gymkhana Ten. Right before Ken Block"s latest tyre-wrecking, laptop speaker-slaying, extravaganza spends almost nineteen minutes assaulting your senses. And not just on one airfield, or in one city, this time. Oh no. Gymkhana has gone global. For its tenth outing, the YouTube car ballet phenomenon covers five locations, from snowy Sweden via Mexico to downtown LA, there"s five times the rev limiter action, five times the drifts, the jumps, and yes, the jump-drifts. Alongside familiar Blockmoibles like the Mustang-inspired Hoonicorn and the delightfully Nineties Ford Escort Cosworth, Gymkhana 10 brings us the first outing for the Hoonitruck, a retro Ford F-150 powered, by the sounds of it, by the world"s most furious hive of bees playing Guitar Hero. In fact, it borrows the bi-turbo V6 race engine from the Ford GT, delimited and unleashed for beyond 900bhp. Would you expect anything else?
