Ken Block - Gymkhana Two Build
what a great video and WOW, can't wait to see this beast pushed to the limits...very cool of them to show the process.

Gymkhana Two Build

LIC has 3 cars getting ready to leave this shop all runing CP 30/35R turbo kits and some really sweet things in the works...stay tuned for that (we are a few months out for completion).

pretty sick if you ask me...I love the in depth footage, very cool to see inner workings...and some sick video editing.

Quirts clean room for building motors is top notch...very impressive in person.
