There was a moment during filming in the studio yesterday where Jeremy asked everyone in the audience whether they’d seen Ken Block’s Gymkhana on YouTube. There were a few blank faces.
So, given James spent a few hours powersliding around an airport with him for this week’s show, we thought we’d give those who don’t know Ken Block a bit of homework before Sunday night.
All you have to do is watch these two videos, then imagine what stunts like that will look like with Top Gear’s famed cinematic skills and James’ wide-eyed wincing and buttock-clenching. It’s spectacular.













What do you think?
