Road to Gymkhana Grid

Summary The Road to Gymkhana Grid is a feature sports-action documentary following eight world-class drivers' journey from their hometown to Johannesburg, South Africa to compete in the world drifting championship event. The Gymkhana Grid was born from the mind of Ken Block, a successful rally cross driver and viral sensation through his drifting videos. To improve his racing skills Ken designed a competition to give him more seat time. Based on the ancient art of gymkhana where Mongolian soldiers would compete with horses on an obstacle course for the best time, Ken's dream was to take car drifting to the next level. What makes the Gymkhana Grid competition so unique is it draws in drivers of all backgrounds; from world champions to people financially struggling to build cars and hold down day-jobs. It is a "people's gymkhana" where drivers battle to show off their skills on a complex course in both highly tuned rally cars and production vehicles. The Road to Gymkhana Grid tells powerful emotional stories from a diverse range of drivers and what it takes to compete at the highest level. To be the best requires sacrifice, intense mental discipline and a super-charged ambition to stand atop the podium. View more details
