Not only did I enjoy that work of car driving, I enjoyed the downbeat rhythm played as well. I say again, I want those driving skills.

Absolutely ridiculous. I mean, WTF???

The drift from 1:21 to 1:28 simply defies the laws of physics, God, the Universe, quarks, string theory, Steven Hawking's balls and black holes.

WOW

Almost drifting off a dock at shipping yard......priceless.

I was like WoW.

I enjoyed the driving part not the theatrical part much.

So while this is cool, I'm wondering how many different takes were pieced together to make that film, because I really doubt that he did that all on one go.

He's kind of conservative, doesn't use all of the potential of the car. Besides, I do that on my commute to work.

Seriously though, simply ridiculous.

There are plenty of tire marks from previous practice runs so maybe they got the finished product in one take. I would love to see a blooper reel of the practice runs...

Original blooper reel from his first Gymkhana, don't think they've released the newest one yet!

The production value and way this video was shot is worth watching if nothing else.

The use of slow motion and speed ramping was well done and the ideas with the fluorescents and the water balloons was awesome.

I would give up feature films if I could figure out how to work on this kind of stuff all the time.

Those white things that he drove over and broke, were those light bulbs or breakable baseball bats?
