You can now watch Gymkhana Ten as part of the Gymkhana files on Amazon Prime, ahead of its YouTube release on December 17th.

The series takes fans behind the scenes, with the Ken Block and the Hoonigan crew.

Block has outdone himself this time with the newest installment, as he takes five different vehicles to five unique locations.

It kicks off at Luleå, Sweden where for the first time Block gets behind the wheel of the current-gen 2018 Ford Fiesta WRC in the snow. 

From there we head to motor city, Detroit, Michigan where Block returns to the famous Ford Mustang RTR Hoonicorn V2 and tears up the streets over an impressive course. 

Next is Guanajuato, Mexico, with Block behind the wheel of his Ford Focus RS RX rallycross car. The camera work in this section is some of the best we've ever seen in a Gymkhana video. 

Then, it's back to LA, where he drifts his Ford Escort Cosworth Group A through a warehouse on tyres and bare metal wheels. 

We finish off in Shamrock, Texas where we get to see Block’s latest creation, the 1977 Ford F-150 Hoonitruck. Here he drifts up a storm. 

One thing we took away from this year’s video is just how hard you can see Block driving and how much concentration is on his face during some of the moves, which are performed in very tight and twisty set-ups. 

You can watch Gymkhana ten right now on Prime Video as part of Episode 8 right here.

If you’re not signed up for Amazon Prime video, make sure to check out Hoonigan’s YouTube channel on December 17.

Growing up in Tasmania, car culture hardly surrounded Joel. But between Targa, the Australian Rally Championship and V8 Supercars there was enough to build Joel’s passion for all things automotive. Joel got his first big break covering the Australian Rally Championship in the mid 2000s.  His two biggest publishing accomplishments were for two publications which are no longer in print, first one photo published in Motorsport News in the mid ‘90s and then his first feature story published in Speed magazine in the mid 2000s, both from rally events.  He now combines that automotive passion every day in his photography and writing. The best car he’s owned to date was a 2005 Subaru Impreza WRX, with the sound of the boxer engine and handling causing him to yearn for another.  If he had the money, he would buy a Dodge Viper from the early ‘90s. Did someone say 8.0-litre V10?
