Gymkhanas in DIRT 5 are not what I expected them to be

Time to HOON πŸ¦„

I would like to assume that most of you know what a Gymkhana is, but I'm sure that 100% are not enlightened. If you are unfamiliar with the word, this post will explain it all perfectly. I'll briefly explain again now. Gymkhana is an equestrian term that translates to racing as a type of speed pattern racing and timed games to display extreme precision and control between the driver and the ride.

I've watched all of Ken Block's Gymkhana videos, but even that experience wasn't enough to prepare me for DIRT 5's version of the gymkhana. You are placed on a course that features various sections of obstacles that you must avoid while burning rubber and drifting your way around until the timer expires. It is a ton of fun, but it is also very far from easy.

I think that this mode has a lot of potential to be very fun, but I did not perform very well during my first experience. I have since figured out a better strategy to hopefully get higher scores in the future. I thought that I would share my first experience with DIRT 5's Gymkhana offering.

:) i read that title and though it said GYMKATA.. :P did u happen to see that movie? do u like old cheesy 80's martial arts movies? I thought it was so cool when I saw it the first time, tho.

I think they want u to do drifts and donuts in that one. not really a race at all. cool stage.

I have never seen that movie but just looked it up...

Gymkata is a 1985 martial arts film directed by Robert Clouse, based on Dan Tyler Moore's 1956 short story The Terrible Game. It stars Olympic gymnast Kurt Thomas as Jonathan Cabot, an Olympic gymnast who combines his gymnastic ability with martial arts to enter a deadly competition in a fictional country, Parmistan.

The movie sounds awesome, but it is older than I am.

I have gotten much better at DIRT 5's Gymkhanas since posting this video. I even got over 30,000 points in one round to unlock the Stuntmasta' bronze ps trophy. That was not easy at all. Don't think I will platinum this one though since it requires driving 1,000 total miles.
