This time, Block delights Youtubers by covering the city of Dubai in black skidmarks.
Block's Gymkhanna series is an ongoing spectacle of automotive skill and tire smoke.
In his previous video, he tore through downtown LA in a bonkers custom 1965 Mustang called the 'Hoonicorn.'
His video's attract millions of views, and each one includes a handful of jaw-dropping stunts.
A note to readers who enjoy driving in a more linear fashion: to "hoon" is to drive in a manner considered agressive, anti-social, or childish. While Block is undoubtedly a lover of all things speed-related, he is also a professional driver who performs exclusively on closed roads or tracks.
Like Mr. Block, the machine he uses in this video is also an incredible thing, as are all modern rally cars. They accelerate off the line faster than Formula One machines, thanks in large part to wonderful four wheel drive systems and uber tubochargers, and they have hydraulic handbrakes which allow them to, say, do donuts inside a ring of Dubai police supercars.
Mr. Block puts his Ford Fiesta rally car to good use. Check it out.
