Block, full lock and smoking tyres

Donut king Ken Block is coming to Australia. The man behind the widely successful Gymkhana videos will bring his spectacular stunts to Melbourne's Calder Park Raceway on September 3.

The Gymkhana videos, which involve Block to stunts including tyre-burning donuts and drifting, have recorded more than 50 million views on You Tube since they began.

The American will bring his specially-built Ford Fiesta to Australia as part of a three-stop world tour. The timing of the local trip coincides with his other job, competing in the World Rally Championship at Coffs Harbour the following week.

The show will be free to the public but the organisers have not revealed how fans will be able to acquire them.

Full details will be announced closer to the show.

"I'm stoked to be coming down to Australia for one of the stops of my Gymkhana World Tour," Block said. "My visit is shaping up to be wild.

"We're coming down and doing a ton of different things during my visit, and, I'm not just there for the World Tour. I'm also racing in WRC Australia the following week. I can't wait; it's going to be a very fun couple of weeks for me.

"One of the great things about the Gymkhana World Tour down in Australia is that it's free to the public, so everyone can come. I hope everybody that wants to see it can make it out because it's going be amazing."

Block's world tour will also hit Vienna, Austria in July before finishing in Los Angeles. He has also promised a fourth instalment in the popular online video series.
