Gymkhana in a Semi? You Betcha!

It’s been almost 3 years since Ken Block released his first Gymkhana video and in that time he’s managed to rack up over 100 million views on Youtube. In his first two videos Block used tricked Subaru STI’s, with his third video bringing to life his new highly modified Ford Fiesta. Both the STI and the Fiesta are small, lightweight and agile, which means that they’re perfect for slinging around. What if there was someone out there willing to use something a wee-bit bigger though, something like say… a semi-truck? This is stunt man / racer Mike Ryan, and his ride of choice not only weighs over 4 times what Block’s cars weigh, but it’s also 4 times the size. Ryan is a 12 time Pikes Peak Hill Climb Champion in the very same truck you see here. He also wanted to prove regardless of what the world says, size does indeed matter. Video after the jump!

Needs the guy on a segway while the rig does donuts around him.
