If you thought Ken Block’s Gymkhana SIX was good then check out how the lads at HPI Racing recreated the entire thing with a RC car.

Remote control cars aren’t just for kids and in the right hands you can make them do some pretty cool tricks. The lads from HPI Racing recently decided to make a remote control tribute to Ken Block’s Gymkhana SIX and while it’s a lot smaller than the original production, it looks just as good…

Here’s what HPI had to say on YouTube: “HPI presents the RC tribute to Ken Block’s Gymkhana 6. All shot with the GoPro Hero3. Featuring the HPI Ken Block 2013 GRC Micro RS4 w/ Ford Fiesta H.F.H.V. Body with custom Gymkhana 6 livery and fifteen52 Turbo Mac wheels.”

You can find out loads more about the RC car used in the tribute video by checking out the HPI Racing website. Now, here’s a look at the original for comparison…
