Gymkhana III Fiesta...on 51 degrees of banking...
"...Built by Olsbergs Motorsport Evolution (MSE), the 2,425-pound Gymkhana THREE Fiesta sports a purpose-built Olsbergs engine capable of up to 850 brake horsepower, but is restricted to
650 horsepower to give Block the torque band needed to control the car. Equipped with an Olsbergs MSE Maktrak (magnesium) six-speed paddle-shift sequential transmission, it is capable of 660 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,000 rpm and needs a mere 1.9 seconds to go from 0 to 60 mph.
The car’s body has been altered with an aggressive new front bumper design inspired by road racing cars. It has a carbon splitter, which improves aerodynamics, unlike the rally car’s bumper, which is built for gravel stage durability. The fender flares are also much wider and more squared off for an aggressive look..."

Re: 2011 Ford Fiesta
Whoa....
Have some coffee before watching this one! Hard to believe some of the stunts he pulled off with that Fiesta! I saw power to the rear wheels, gotta wonder how they got a rear axle under it, (possibly a transaxle)?
Thanks for sharing Bobby.
I want one for sure!

And I thought the 289 high performance powered Datsun pickup I used to have was fast. Not compaired to that.
