In his never-ending search for unique places around the world to thrash his racecars, Ken Block happened upon one of the world's steepest surviving oval tracks: Autodrome de Linas-Montlhéry. Transitioning from the street car based Subarus from previous Gymkhana films, to his new purpose-built Ford Fiesta rallycross car, Gymkhana THREE took the series to a new level. It also marks the first appearance of Scotto in a Gym film – just look for the tall dude on the Segway.
