Gymkhana Eight Review

For the last five years', I have done posts on Gymkhana Four, Gymkhana Five, Gymkhana Six, and Gymkhana Seven. This week, Ford, Hoonigan and Ken Block bring out their new Gymkhana video onto YouTube called: "KEN BLOCK'S GYMKHANA EIGHT: ULTIMATE EXOTIC PLAYGROUND; DUBAI" (video below).

And just like Gymkhana Five and Seven, its shot on the streets of Dubai, United Arab Emirates; as he uses parts of the city a personal gymkhana playground to film around. Using his trustworthy Ford Fiesta ST RX43 that produces 650 bhp. Enjoy the video below.

What my thoughts about the video. Equal as Gymkhana Five and Seven (if not better) if you have to compare it with any of Ken Block's previous Gymkhanas. I thought it was still edited well, the multiple use of Go-Pro cameras' inside and outside on the ST RX43, I enjoyed the aerial shots above as-well as the change of scenery with using Dubai instead of using a City in the state of California. Also, I enjoyed Ken was doing multiple doughnuts with the ST RX43 around the aeroplane while it was slowly moving.

Overall I liked the video, is it better than the previous Gymkhanas' of past, so far with nearly 2 million views on YouTube since Monday in the space of 24 hours, its another 80 million views to catch up with Gymkhana Five record. Overall, another very cool video from Ken Block.
