- An eight-episode unscripted series featuring famed motorsports star and entrepreneur Ken Block and the making of Gymkhana 10, the recently-announced tenth installment of his award-winning, record-breaking Gymkhana Film series. It's an exclusive look behind the filming, the struggles and the personalities that go into making of one of the biggest viral campaigns of all time, along with the untold stories and never-before-seen footage from Block's previous nine films.
- Building upon the award-winning viral video franchise of Gymkhana films-and directed and produced entirely in-house at Hoonigan-Gymkhana TEN takes viewers on an epic journey to 5 very unique and different locations with 5 very unique and different vehicles. The journey starts in Luleå, Sweden, with Block piloting the current 2018 Ford Fiesta WRC on snow and ice-a first-ever for Block in one of his Gymkhana films. After that the action jumps to Detroit, Michigan, with Block in his 1965 Ford Mustang RTR Hoonicorn V2, decimating his tires with 1,400 horsepower on the streets of the Motor City. From there viewers are transported to Guanajuato, Mexico, where Block can be seen ripping through the colorful streets and tunnels of a picturesque mountain town in his 2017 Ford Focus RS RX rallycross car. After that, things go full-sketch with a jump to Los Angeles, California, with Block driving his beloved 199 Ford Escort Cosworth Group A car on a mixture of both tires and bare metal wheels, creating massive sprays of sparks. Finally, viewers are brought to historic Route 66 in Shamrock, Texas (the inspiration for the animated film Cars), for the world debut of Block's all-new 1977 Ford F-150 Hoonitruck in action as he absolutely wreaks havoc upon the small Texas town.
- Legendary racer and motorsport entrepreneur Ken Block takes Hoonigan's flagship custom ride up one of the most dangerous roads in the world.
- WILD IN THE STREETS. Ken Block built one of the world's wildest Ford Mustangs ever, the 845hp AWD Ford Mustang Hoonicorn RTR. Naturally, he had to make a video to show off what it's capable of - and what better place than the raw streets of Los Angeles. Pretty much what you'd imagine it would be like to be on of the sole survivors in a post-apocalyptic cityscape, equipped with one of the greatest hooning vehicles ever built.
- If Gymkhana TWO was an infomercial, then Gymkhana FOUR is the ultimate Hollywood Megamercial. Ken Block gets free reign to smash through (sometimes literally) the backlot of Universal Studios California, from preserved movie sets to sound stages and emptied out filming pools. Only there aren't any Hollywood style film effects here - just pure, raw hoonage.
- Gymkhana FIVE: the pinnacle of hooning through city streets. San Fransisco might as well be a tarmac rally stage, between all of its jumps, elevation changes, switchback streets, and naturally occurring obstacles. This one might just be our favorite Gymkhana video of all time.
- Gymkhana NINE: Raw Industrial Playground. This video returns to the roots of HHIC Ken Block's 550+million view viral video franchise with pure, raw driving action at center stage once again. Co-starring is his 600+ horsepower Ford Focus RS RX that he competes with in the FIA World Rallycross Championship.
- In his never-ending search for unique places around the world to thrash his racecars, Ken Block happened upon one of the world's steepest surviving oval tracks: Autodrome de Linas-Montlhéry. Transitioning from the street car based Subarus from previous Gymkhana films, to his new purpose-built Ford Fiesta rallycross car, Gymkhana THREE took the series to a new level. It also marks the first appearance of Scotto in a Gym film - just look for the tall dude on the Segway.
- A long time ago, before Ken was a factory driver, before he was racing for world championships, he was a rookie known for a few national wins but completely unproven on the world stage. Ken, and the Monster World Rally team (as it was known back then) knew they needed to test their skills on the highest level, and so they arrived for the first time ever in 2007 at the World Rally Championship in Guanajuato, Mexico. An extremely successful first race here at Guanajuato legitimized Ken as a world level driver, and paved the way for the last decade of racing and viral content. So for GymkhanaTEN, the team knew they had to come back here. To where it all began. Guanajuato is a rally town, through and through. The fans are extreme, and while normally the race takes place out in the hills around the town, for GymkhanaTEN Ken and Brian wanted to bring Ken's Ford Focus RS RX down into the narrow mining tunnels that are one of the most iconic features of the town. Because the team knows this city so well, they've admittedly not really thought the segment fully through. Which either means it's going to be a complete disaster, or they might just have the best GymkhanaTEN segment yet, in this city that helped launch Ken Block and GYMKHANA to a world audience.
- Ken Block and his team of Hoonigans have built a viral video empire out of a simple concept. Driver. Car. Location. No limits. The result has been 9 Gymkhana films that have earned over 500million views on YouTube alone, won numerous ad awards for best branded content, and garnered millions of reposts, parodies, and tributes online. With GymkhanaTEN, the team wants to make their greatest film ever - with 5 cars, 5 different locations, and a brand new, radically different, custom built vehicle the world has never seen. However, before any of that can even get started, Ken and the team have a different mountain to climb: literally. Climbkhana, Ken & co.'s first attempt at a brand new viral series, is going to combine their Gymkhana series with the unique motorsport of hillclimb, on one of America's most iconic mountains: Pikes Peak, Colorado. With extreme altitude, wild weather, and devastating consequences off the corner of every cliff - this might be the most difficult video they've shot to date. The team prepares for GymkhanaTEN, the largest project they've ever done, on this mountainside, finishing off one of their most unique video projects ever. All in a day's work.
- There is a reason it's called the Motor City. The home of American automotive, Detroit makes perfect sense as a Gymkhana location. With wide swathes of urban decay next door to a booming downtown, it paints a unique portrait of an American city. In the works for over 7 years, Ken & co have wanted to film a Gymkhana in Detroit since 2010, and finally get the opportunity. As the first shoot of GymkhanaTEN, the stakes here are incredibly high. This city will set the momentum for the rest of the year long project, so the team wants to get out the gate first. They bring the Ford Mustang Hoonicorn v2, Ken's most popular vehicle, and plan a wild array of tricks to put the Hoonigan stamp all over Detroit. But shooting in the Motor City in Fall brings a bunch of potential hazards. Filming in cities is always a challenge, with permitting, police escorts and road closures needing strict timeframes and filming to go off without a hitch. But add weather, oily roads, and a 1400hp monster of a vehicle - it's a recipe for mayhem that the Gymkhana team will have to navigate like they always do - flat out.
- With a successful, if anticlimactic, ending to the first segment of GymkhanaTEN, Ken flies off to Loheac, France to continue his attempt to win a championship in the World Rallycross Championship, also known as WorldRX. A shoulder-to-shoulder, full contact circuit racing sport, rallycross takes the mixed surfaces and hot-hatch style cars of rally racing and puts it in an arena for fans to watch. One of the fastest growing motorsports, it has the eyes of manufacturers and fans alike. With the might of Ford behind them, Ken and second driver Andreas Bakkerud, a young, camera-happy Norwegian, hope to use their new Ford Focus RS RX in order to contend for a championship. But with some weaknesses the team has yet to iron out, the risk is there for a below average performance. Meanwhile, Brian continues the development work on GymkhanaTEN - scouting in small-town Texas for the final segment of the film.
- For the second segment of GymkhanaTEN, Ken and team wanted to do something new and original, something that had never been seen before. You can't kickflip a car - but you might be able to grind it - with that idea translated over from skateboarding, the team takes the tires off a 1991 Ford Escort Cosworth RS to try something admittedly new to them. In an old tire factory in an industrial part of Los Angeles called South Gate, the Hoonigan team readies their wildest idea yet - an entire segment solely on rims. The concept itself dates back to a previous Gymkhana, GymkhanaTHREE, which at the end featured a prolonged center-axis donut until the tires blew completely off of Ken's race car. The idea of a Gymkhana on rims was born immediately, but never seemed reliable enough to extend to a full ten minute film. For GymkhanaTEN, however, the idea was perfect. Right out of the gate, the team expected a pretty steep learning curve - but what they encountered is something they never could have anticipated.
- While Los Angeles is now behind them, the team splinters and communication grinds to a halt. Brian heads back to Hoonigan Media Machine, continuing to prep GymkhanaTEN, while Ken heads back to racing. After the lackluster results the team has seen in the first half of the season - Ken faces a difficult decision about his future in the World Rallycross Championship, and an unexpected announcement to the team. While those conversations weigh heavily on Ken, Brian heads halfway around the world to Sweden to ensure that the team is better prepared for the next segment. The team seems to be learning the lessons from the experience of Los Angeles, and with only three segments left, it's imperative they get some viral moments in Sweden or the entire project could be a failure.
- With the specter of Los Angeles hanging over them - Ken, Brian & co. head to Luleå, Sweden to film their most challenging segment yet. A custom course cut out of the snow on a frozen ice lake, with only 3 hours of daylight and -30 degree Fahrenheit weather, the filming side must go off without a hitch in order for them to leave the Arctic with anything resembling a segment. Ken arrives fresh from the end of the WorldRX season, with no distractions and a focus on the success of GymkhanaTEN. He brings with him Oliver Solberg, the son of his WorldRX rival Petter Solberg and the youngest ever supercar driver in WorldRX. At just 16 years old, Oliver is a future superstar in the making, and his inclusion in GymkhanaTEN marks the first time a co-driver has appeared in the series. Extreme weather? Check. New car? Check. Jumps? Check. This latest GymkhanaTEN segment has all the obstacles required to push the Hoonigan team to their limits.
- With Sweden behind them, the team is finally in a rhythm. Brian and Ken, having completely ignored and moved past the arguments of Los Angeles, arrive in Texas with a mission - to ensure they throw dirt and smoke in the air of this sleepy Texas town. Shamrock, Texas is known for its world famous Conoco Tower - an icon depicted in all three of Pixar's Cars films. The town is the inspiration for Radiator Springs - a tiny town once famous as a Route 66 stopover now all but fallen off the map if it wasn't for the animated franchise. The arrival of the Hoonigan crew definitely draws some onlookers, as does their new vehicle - a gorgeous, custom built 1977 Ford F-150. With the prototype engine that powered the Le Mans winning Ford GT, hand-crafted aluminum panels and a classic front grill, the Hoonitruck is the gnarliest, most tire-roasting-est weapon in Ken's arsenal, and it's debut in small town Texas is a wonder to behold.
