Gymkhana 5 Skids Into San Francisco

The latest installment of Ken Block's shoe commercials with skiding rally cars, also known as the Gymkhana series, has arrived. This time we find Mr. Block and his 650 hp Fiesta on the hilly streets of San Francisco. After the somewhat shark jumpy Gymkhana 4, Gymkhana 5 is a return to the more grounded, stripped down entries in the series.

The video starts with Block lining the Fiesta up on the Golden Gate Bridge and then caining it as fast as it will go across the famous landmark towards San Francisco. He then gets off the freeway with a series of some of the biggest skids you've ever seen and descends into the city streets.

You can probably guess where it goes from here: lots of donuts around trollies, hill jumping (the Fiesta might need an alignment after a few of these) and skidding up Lombard Street. Other cool stuff includes bullet time shots and Styx. Just watch the video and buy some shoes.
