Rally driver Ken Block announced that he will be replaced by freestyle founder Travis Pastrana in the eleventh part of Gymkhana. This is the first driver change in the series' 12-year history.

• In recent years, Ford cars have been used in commercials under the contract, but Subaru will again appear in the new release, as in the first two episodes of Gimkhana. The filming of the eleventh part will take place in 2020. The fact that Pastrana will be filmed in them, Blok wrote on his instagram.
• Ken Block presented his final tenth in a row to Dzhimkhan in December 2018. The longest video (19 minutes) was filmed in five countries, and the racer performed stunts in rally Ford Fiesta, Focus and Escort, a 1200-horsepower Hoonicorn coupe, as well as a 900-horsepower Hoonitruck pickup, built on the basis of a 1977 Ford F-150.
• Travis Pastrana also often produces spectacular videos. Earlier this year, he teamed up with Indianapolis 500 Mile winner Alexander Rossi and motorcycle racer Greg Duffy to double-jump an IndyCar in a Subaru WRX STI rally and Suzuki motocross motorcycle.

Earlier, Ken Block gave a virtual presentation of his new project Hoonifox. Factory Ford Performance will build the car based on the third-generation Mustang coupe, which was produced from 1978 to 1993. There is no information about the technical characteristics of the car yet.
