Of late, the word gymkhana seems synonymously linked to Ken Block and his Subaru. In fact, gymkhana means literally means "car rodeo". In practical terms, it stands for a car event that has a start and finish line and features some form of obstacle somewhere in between.

This time, it's an Audi R8 5.2 that takes its sideways shenanigans to El Ttoro Marine base. Piloted by Nathan Swartzbaugh, ALMS/Rolex/Off-Road driver, the V10 525 hp are put through their paces flat-out, or should we say, side-out, while a camera crew works hard to capture all the action.

BTW, loves cars? Check out the other cars strewn about in the video... Nice stuff huh?
