to be fair, it's not really a new car for ken, he uses the same exact 4 wheel drive train in all his cars, so there is very little that changes in regards to feel, unless you get down to tyre differences and engine power depending on tuning. imagine you have an RC car and all you do is change the shell on the top so it looks different.. that's ken's life. if that car had remained as lets say an original rear wheel drive porsche then i would agree with you as that would not be what he drives all the time and he would have to "learn a new car".
@@ribbitism You have no idea what you're talking about and its hilarious. For starters the Porsche is mid engine and the Hoonicorn was obviously front engine. Also vastly different wheelbases. I cant find a lot of specs on the Porsche because its so new, but they are VERY different cars. Just because they are both all wheel drive, doesn't mean they are the same car. Indycars use the same everything and teams win based off just setup of the car alone. Also they don't have this car setup yet let alone dialed in and ken feeling comfortable in it.
@@dead_redux 🤣 No he couldn't lad I beat him in my 2wd civic on every stage in Donegal rally in 2019 👍 and him in a 4wd escort cosworth he's a great business man and great at marketing but thers far better drivers out there than him 👌
The "Hoonigan" crew tends to break cars when they drive them. On top of that, Ken drives cars worth way more than all of the "Hoonigans" car collections.
Ayrton Senna once said, "Fear teaches you respect, fear keeps you sharp." He always said if you race cars and have no fear of said car, you should not be racing, you are a danger to yourself and others. When something is feared, it is respected, he also said too much fear is as bad as no fear. I liked Ken Blocks answer to that question
Mr. Walter Röhrl once said: When accelerating the tears of emotion must flow horizontally towards the ear.... and if you' re not scared of the car it isn't fast enough so... we're waiting to see Ken pulling full power on this beast😁😁👌
Lia got to give the Hoonipigasus the full Hoonigan send on a cold engine and it was glorious, ripping through the gears like a motorcycle. You can tell they're running a compound turbo by the way the power peaks on the top end. I was so relieved to see Lia go full throttle at the Summit of Pikes Peak after watching it lug around the base like a naturally aspirated engine
Few months back after watching a few hoonigan clips I asked myself, why hardly ever porsche. Then a few clips later I thought, it would be awesome to see Ken Block race the peak. And now I see this.... Boys this is awesome!!!!! GL with everything, and GL on the run mr. Block! Really cool stuff this is. That sound, vrooom vroom.
It would make an amazing video if Ken let the whole crew each have a little go in the Hoonicorn in an open space where they can’t crash it. I’d love to see their reactions 😂
Eh, they'll figure it out. The end of the video they started chatting a little about the setup needing work. These porsches were never really known for their rear stability lol
@@Bwillev Well, there is nothing Porsche left in there besides the roof skin and the engine. Early 911s were known for off lift off over steer because of the rear weight bias. This one is mid engine so that eliminates a big part of that old issue.
I guess you don't know about the suspension system lol. It goes off GPS data. Not like they have the same data for this random track. The auto adjustments aren't displayed in this video
@@binkleyme I know that, but they way it is set up, only the ride height is adjusted. It cannot make geometry or damping changes on the fly. They basically just have a hydraulic actuator where the third spring would usually be on an F1 car or Prototype.
Ken Block I would like to thank you for getting me in to building cars, drifting, racing, rally racing etc you are one of a few that got me into my favorite hobby RIP Ken Block RIP legend Legends never die they live on in are hearts forever
Ken is a legend, made the best car and driving videos. He will be missed and with so much left behind. My hart goes out to his family and friends, my thoughts and prayers are with you guys.
I cant wait until diecast companies like Hotwheels or Fuelme 1/64 makes this replica for diecast collectors such as myself 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥 I hope they can make it happen. 🏎💨💨💨💨💨💨💨
I'd rather FuelMe make it for the extreme detail. Or Tarmac Works, PGM, even Truescale, Ignition. But Tarmac and FuelMe seem to be super into Porsche. 🤞
Honestly tho I’m suprised hot wheel hasn’t jumped onto the whole hoonigan line up. We got the Baja beetle but I’d like to see premiums of everyone’s car at hoonigan. Scotto’s 911, hertz Fc/ae86, vins bmw.
@@aconstantdread5677 well Scotto's rwb is on other platforms with really high detail, but at a higher price ~$70. I'm growing away from Mattel and enjoying premium brand details. The hoonicorn is made by another chinese brand I forget which atm. If hot wheels did it then I'd want twerkstallion as an rlc release. It needs that chrome plated body and Spectraflame Red to make that car stand out. Mattel hasn't used their rwb Porsche 930 casting since 2020 so bad chance licensing issues came up. That means no Scotto RWB for mattel.
I don't really trust that older Porsche 911 chassis for hard and tight turns. In my opinion, an Audi or a more modern Porsche like the GT3 chassis for the mountains is best.
The hoonicorn would blow the doors off this thing in a straight line. It's a hill climb car. It's most likely geared for acceleration rather than speed.
@@twizz420 Hoonipig has a metric fuk-tonne more aero than the Corn'. I would imagine that would slow it down at higher speeds compared to the Corn' however around a track I cant see the Mustang keeping up with this Porka.
i just love how the Hoonipigasus has the CSR2 logos on it, I started playing that game so long ago back on CRS1 so it's cool to see the game that large.
@@AmbientMike all Porsches have a snap. The Cayman is a "mid engine" and their Cayman Cup racecars are even more snappy than their GT3 ones. Having a heavy weight behind your CG and rotation point makes a car snappy. It happens because centrifugal forces are pulling your car's ass sideways. The only way you control those forces is through cornering speed.
@@SchrottiJr I'm well aware, however the stereotypical snap is related to old rear engine 911, but yes, mod engine will inherently also have more oversteer
@@AmbientMike rear engine cars will always have more natural oversteer than mid engine for obvious reasons of all the weight being in the rear transferring forces side to side in cornering. Mid engine have plenty of oversteer as well. Put some nice front and rear toe, camber and caster this thing is gona be a monster machine period
My husband and I watch together! We thought of an epic gymkhana to be at the freedom factory and have a special spot with Cleetus’s! I love this car! ❤️❤️
Ken I’ll see you on the 26th. I’m going to be at Devils Playground watching. I’m bringing my boys. They don’t know how special this is to watch. I’m excited for them.
I know this isn’t news, but DAMN Ken can drive. I can’t imagine a car going into snap oversteer and running into sand at 120mph at near full lock and still controlling it. That’s just absurd.
He's one of the best drivers to ever live as someone who is the biggest fan of racing who also races I do not say it lightly either 😀 I totally agree! No matter what he drives he completely is able to dominate it no matter what beast is made, although I didn't like the look of the car as in the color. But the car is amazing 100% is yet another pure beast from them 😀 would be such a pleasure to build a car for them! And to see it in action adds to how mind boggling that must be. I hope you're well whoever an wherever you are from!
@@joshjacobjonesjoshjacobjon2899 "one of the best drivers". Dont get me wrong, he is pretty good and he surely is better than I will ever be. But there are MANY better drivers in not only the rally world, but the entire thing of motorsport as a whole. I will try to list the "best" drivers from the top of my head without proper order to put into perspective of how far he is from the best of the best. Stig Blomqvist - WRC GB/A 1980s Michelle Mouton - WRC GB/A 1980s Walter Röhrl - WRC GB/A 1980s Carlos Sainz Sr. - WRC GA 1990s Richard Burns - WRC 2000cc/GA 1990s Colin McRae - WRC 2000cc/GA 2000s Hannu Mikkola - WRC GB/A 1980s Alain Prost - F1 1980s Ayrton Senna - F1 1980s Micheal Schumacher - F1 2000s Mika Haikkinen - F1 1990s Niki Lauda - F1 1970s Lewis Hamilton - F1 2010s Jackie Stewart - F1 1960s Attilio Bettega - WRC GB 1980s Ari Vatanen - WRC BG 1980s Timo Salonen - WRC GB 1980s Juha Kankunnen - WR GB 1980s Sebastian Vettel - F1 2010s Graham Hill - Only Triple Crown Holder Fernando Alonzo - F1 2000s Max Verstappen - F1 2020s (he has the skills, but not much of the "experience") James Hunt - F1 1970s Juan-Manuel Fangio - F1 1950s Bruce McLaren - F1, LeMans 1960s Kimi Raikkonen - F1, WRC, NASCAR 2000s Dale Earnhardt Sr. - NASCAR 1990s (yes, NASCAR takes WAAAY more skill than you think) Dale Earnhardt Jr. - NASCAR 2000s Tom Kristensen - Le Mans Champion Ken Miles - 1960s DT500 Le Mans 24h Bernd Schneider - 1980s DTM Klaus Ludwig - 1980s DTM Rene Rast - 2010s DTM Jim Cark - F1 1960s Sebastian Loeb - WRC 2000s and the list goes on and on and on. All these people are people I would put WAAAY before Ken Block. Like I said, he is *Good*, but no where near the best. (before you complain, this only took me 6 minutes to name everyone from the top of my head.)
So, clearly this car has a job to do first at Pike's Peak but we all know ol' Robert Dahm has been improving the 4 rotor this whole time and the Hoonipigasus is not going to walk away on him in a race. It's a showdown that must happen for world history to remain intact.
This is going to be one wild stallion to break In. Going front engine awd too rear or mid is a massive change in how the car brakes or regains traction Ken will have his work cut out for him on this one
If you’re not scared you’re not going fast enough holy Shi what a beautiful quote. Rip drift king #1 for always will be a inspiration to many future past and present drivers. Much love forever 💯
A lot of people become Legends after fatal outcomes. Ken's already a legend... After this run at pikes peak he's going to go down in history. No pun intended. Feeling weird about this one. This car looks like it can easily be pushed beyond its limit. Stay Safe out there
Can only imagine what 1400HP in a 911 would feel like, know RWD porches suffer from snap-oversteer when lifting off throttle in corners, being that it's AWD.. curious how much the AWD helps alleviate that known issue.
This thing looks and sounds amazing, but wow it looks like extremely dangerous to drive and that was giving it 50% if that, hopefully they fix the problems 👍
Can't believe your gone. You are my idol growing up I got into cars because of you. Rest in paradise. Your amazing driving skills will live on and will never Drift Away
You have gotta be one of the luckiest guys ever!! But you have worked hard, you deserve it! Good luck to you at peaks cants wait to see what you do, god speed

rest in peace
Can’t wait for it to drag race the hoonicorn
So, clearly this car has a job to do first at Pike's Peak but we all know ol' Robert Dahm has been improving the 4 rotor this whole time and the Hoonipigasus is not going to walk away on him in a race. It's a showdown that must happen for world history to remain intact.
“If you’re not scared you’re not going fast enough” new hoonigan sticker ! for sure :)
R.I.P. Ken Block. Race in Paradise.
RIP KEN BLOCK
Is it just me or whenever the Hoonipig shifts it sounds like a pig snorting 😂
Awesome car btw🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is going to be one wild stallion to break In. Going front engine awd too rear or mid is a massive change in how the car brakes or regains traction
Ken will have his work cut out for him on this one
RS200 is mid AWD.
Still a process with a new chassis, agreed.
@@krakennn9067 said rear or mid I wasn't sure
Pikes peak was just so much cooler in the old days!
"If your not scared your not going fast enough".
Guess he went fast enough.
I thought Pikes Peak was paved all the way to the top now. Why so much driving in the dirt?🤣
Rip ken
I’m really hoping Lia gets to shred this thing up pikes peak in honour of her dad…
If you’re not scared you’re not going fast enough holy Shi what a beautiful quote. Rip drift king #1 for always will be a inspiration to many future past and present drivers. Much love forever 💯
It is CERTAINLY the UGLIEST 911 EVER, Fast, No Doubt, but a face ONLY a mother could Love!!
RIP goat
A lot of people become Legends after fatal outcomes. Ken's already a legend... After this run at pikes peak he's going to go down in history. No pun intended. Feeling weird about this one. This car looks like it can easily be pushed beyond its limit. Stay Safe out there
why say that ish weirdo
RIP. block
THE HOONIPIGASUS IS VERY AWESOME, OH MY GOD!!!
OH HERE'S MY LODI KEN BLOCK!! 8:00
THAT'S WHY I CALLED IT GT3 RACER!
RIP Ken ......... May there be thousands of FULLY SIC Cars in heaven for us all 👍
Ugh RIP man
Can only imagine what 1400HP in a 911 would feel like, know RWD porches suffer from snap-oversteer when lifting off throttle in corners, being that it's AWD.. curious how much the AWD helps alleviate that known issue.
911s have been AWD from the factory and had no issues for decades lol
@@binkleyme “You’re not driving fast enough if you aren’t scared” lol
This thing looks and sounds amazing, but wow it looks like extremely dangerous to drive and that was giving it 50% if that, hopefully they fix the problems 👍
The collaboration we needed.
Can't believe your gone. You are my idol growing up I got into cars because of you. Rest in paradise. Your amazing driving skills will live on and will never Drift Away
Ken was in his element, seemingly always. Truly inspiring.
You have gotta be one of the luckiest guys ever!! But you have worked hard, you deserve it! Good luck to you at peaks cants wait to see what you do, god speed
The Pegasus on the side is the best part hands-down
cant wait to drive this in Forza, gonna be an insane track car
Easily would be an S2 998 and also an X Class lol
The dude who inspired me to get into drifting after skating was no longer an option. Rest in peace dude
