For reasons not entirely clear, DC honcho Ken Block has made himself into an international internet phenomenon with Gymkhana, the sport he invented and is the sole practitioner of. That’s cool with us though, it is pretty rad to watch him whip the shit out of a compact car as some big budget camerawork makes it look even gnarlier. What we’re not sure of is the message being sent with these “Obama Can’t Gymkhana” stickers that are being circulated at redneck speed freak events. Gymkhana 3 drops next Tuesday.

DC and Ken Block are giving one lucky fan the chance to visit the filming for the highly anticipated Gymkhana THREE and take a ride with Ken in the new Ford Fiesta 2011. Peep the video of ken explaining the contest and to enter go here.

Last week Ford invited us to San Francisco to view Ken Block’s Ford Fiesta Gymkhana 3 car and to test drive the Ford Fiesta. The event started with a 100 mile rally through wine country’s winding roads, during which we pushed the hell out of the Fiesta and it passed the test. Next was the reveal party sponsored by Ford, DC Shoes, and Monster, where Ken Block unveiled his new ride. The car looks official and even though we didn’t get to take a spin with Ken, our boy “Playboy Ricky Dorigo” aka Renee Renee shared his ride-along story and taught us about American steel. We have to say, we were a bit surprised when Block made the move from Suburu to Ford but Ford Fiesta definitely passes the rad test. Check out Brad Clarke’s pics of the event after the jump.

Ken Block has just made it official, he’s gonna do another Gymkhana, this time in his new Ford Fiesta. Our Brad Clarke is in California as we speak test driving the new whip with Block, so we’ll have a report on how that thing rolls later this week.

In more car action, peep this trailer for the Gumball 3000 movie that is dropping on iTunes on April 26th. If you don’t know, Gumball 3000 is a coast to coast race ala Cannonball Run with a crazy mix of billionaire sheiks, rappers and adrenaline punks doing anything goes across the country until the cops show up. The next stage of the Gumball starts in London on May 1st before zig zagging across europe, then jetting to Boston, dipping through Montreal and Toronto and finishing up in NYC. Peep the route right here and keep an eye out for Frank151’s Gumball 3000 issue dropping soon.

Ken Block’s reinvention as a rally car racer seems to be going in the right direction. Even though he didn’t place at the Rally Guanajuato Bicentenario Mexico, he also wasn’t dead last. Definitely not bad for the only American on the race, Ford has got to be stoked.

Ken Block has so much going on it’s hard to keep track. Here he is test driving his new Ford Focus in the forests of England to prepare for a race in Mexico. We’re not sure how that all makes sense but its fun to watch him beat the hell out of the car, that’s for sure.

Yep, it’s true, Ken Block has a new whip. Behold the Monster Energy World Rally Team 2010 Ford Fiesta that Mr Block will no doubt be hucking and jiving all over the interwebz for the next year. Say what you want about Ford, the shit is pretty rad. Some still shots after the jump.

So yes it’s true, Ken Block has left longtime car sponsor Suburu for the deeper pockets and further ranging vehicle classes of Ford. We know these Hitler vids are a dime a dozen these days, but this one is hella funny for real. Keep an eye out for Ken’s new Focus coming soon.

Concluding our coverage of Agenda, Volkswagen gave Rad Collector an exclusive opportunity to push a 2010 Volkswagen Golf GTI from LA to Huntington Beach. A whip in it’s own class, between the turbo charged intercooler engine and the dual GPS displays, the GTI proved to be the perfect accoutrement to the show. Peep our on-the-spot shoot featuring Luis Tolentino along with Shut, Famous, Diamond, Mighty Healthy, Good Wood, DVS, and CtotheJL after the jump. Photography by Chris Lee.
