Lapping the Peak: Ken Block hangs out in the mountains with his buddy Mustang
His drifting abilities make all the guys swoon and his fame does such a number on girls that they forget how to breathe. Ken Block is definitely a master of grabbing world by the pedal world's attention.
This time he returns with a smoke-choking video from Pikes Peak that sets off a new series of drifting mayhem named Climbkhana. For this particular gig (that by the way was sponsored... of course) the bashful driver chose a 1965 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn RTR V2 with a 1,400hp twin-turbo (methanol fueled). Even though the speed is high and the surroundings are just flashing before his eyes in one fast blur, he lets us enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery, even if for a bit.
Someone might say that this one isn't as impressive as Gymkhana, but look at those dangerous mountain turns, surely none of you can do the same and keep the car on the road (unless you are Ken's rivals from different Rallycross championships, but you don't need to brag there either, you have medals to keep you happy).
