Gymkhana 6 another jaw-dropping display of driving

Ken Block is still falling short as a professional rally driver but he remains unmatched in the world of gymkaha. I've previously posted about Block's incredible touch behind the wheel but here's yet another example of jaw-dropping driving. 

To me, equally impressive are:

  • The amazing camera shots. His sponsors listed at the end of the video -- and you'll want to watch past the first credits -- include GoPro, the company that provides inexpensive but impressive video cameras that can be attached in small places (like the inside of a suspension that takes a beating on the streets of San Francisco). 
  • The absence of other people and cars in the shots. The logistics required to clear a major metropolitan city of people and traffic is remarkable. Must have taken a nice-sized check from the sponsors. 

 Any suggestions on where Block should head for Gymkhana 6?
