Ken Block and Rob Dyrdek in GYMKHANA 2.1

Rally driver Ken Block, founder of DC Shoes, looks to have had a fun time messing around with pro skateboarder Rob Dyrdek.  With Block behind the wheel of his rally-ready Impreza, and Dyrdek riding in his mini-kart model of the STi, the two messed around on a tarmac as the cameras rolled.

The clip is part of Block's Gymkhana video series.  The kart was especially built for this series, and is a scale replica of the STi that Block pilots.  Also built specifically for the shoot is the FIA-certified fireproof suit that Dyrdek wears, also a match to that used by Block.

All told, it makes for a fun three minutes, with the best parts being the near-miss between the two vehicles at two minutes in, and the collision a little later on.

It's crazy and dangerous, but I love it, good jobe guys. Next time, add more power to the mini-kart, that will spice things up. PS:this vid is highly recomeded after those Accord pics. Thanks WCF

Not as good as the previous Block videos, but still fun to watch.

Ken Block is the MAN... and Rob with his go-kart is too I guess. Cool vid, I have already seen it, but it is still good.

he is an insane driver but the video seems a bit silly with the tiny car that I thought was remotecontrolled and all fake until the end of the video.
