    He might be making a stretch though. The term " Gymkhana" has been around for a 100 years, with a variety of means. I don't see how he can claim to own a word that predates his great grandparents.

    The website does seem to be riding Ken Blocks coattails though.

    One way to look at it. Another way to look at it is that Mad Media and Ken Block built this thing up together. Too bad Ken Block's enormous ego will never admit that. It's all about Ken!

    I personally always thought gymkhana was a horse event that one of my cousin's has participated in since long before I'd ever heard of Ken Block or DC shoes...

    I'm going to sue them both for stealing the name from the horses! Horses have had gymkhana events forever! Oh the injustice!!

    Really sad that KB can't see what Mad Media did for him.

    Sounds like Mr. Ed should be suing Ken Block.
