VIDEO: Little kid parks car like a budding Ken Block
Click above to watch video after the jump
At this point in the calender cycle, we're probably all familiar with Ken Block's Gymkhana videos (if you're not, don't feel left out – watch here). Naturally, as acts of controlled hoonage grow in popularity, younger and younger kids are going to become fans. And like monkeys, kids see, kids do. Obviously, without the aid of a thoroughly sorted open class rally car with 6-inch diameter piping creating more torque than a windmill, little kids aren't going to be able to do smokey 720-degree burnouts. However, the real issue here is car control – you either have it or you don't. And we think you will all agree that the young man in this video has it in spades. Watch it after the jump.

What with Monterey Weekend, Woodward Dream Cruise, and Meadowbrook, I'm not surprised!

Cool, so now I don't have to head back to Jalopnik to see it again.
Seriously, what's with you two sharing much of the same *pseudo-exclusive* content lately?
By the way, there's a higher quality version of that video on Youtube, not that it's really necessary, but I always enjoy me some definition, y'know.

Sure, son. Go ahead and drive your Powerwheels in the street. It'll be perfect for YouTube and car blogs!
Even more so if you get creamed by the Roadmaster the 70 year old legally blind next door neighbor lady drives........
Stupid parents.

You're so right. That kid needs to be wearing a helmet, some elbow bads. Wrapping the car in bubble wrap woulda helped too. This guy is crazy for letting his kid have fun-- oh wait.
People like you are just stupid.

You don't know the neighborhood, you don't know if they were at end of a "dead-end" street, or maybe they had someone standing on road looking for cars.
Point is, think your points through.

Thank you, Biomech and Noidor!

No fun doing something if it can't kill you. They have this thing called the outdoors, and sunlight. You should check it out sometime.

Ughh, your lack of a spine sickens me. I'm embarrassed for you. Way to make assumptions, tool.

Ditto! First off, I wish I had a Mustang PowerWheels when I was his age. Second, that took some pretty awesome skill to do that. Third, yes he was on the street, but again, they may live at a dead end street and someone might be looking--everyone stop getting your panties in a bunch!
