@@hermanman8235 Judging by the first race, I thought the Nova had the goods. But the next two races, the Mustang proved way more car, and able to put the extra power he had to all wheels. Really a mismatch in some ways. That car he has is famous, for good reasons. It's a beast.
at the expense of the engine integrity. Clearly, they are probably on the 3rd or 4th engine for this, as they already had one engine blow up on camera.
Neither one of those cars would have a chance on an un-prepped surface like this. The Hoonicorn would grenade the drive line on a prepped track. So no, I seriously doubt we'll ever see any of those match ups.
IDK they seem too legit, too fast, you know, if that car is like a 9 sec car, and ruby is like a 7 second car it wont be close. they do however do a shorter dstance, but the differnact must be too great
@@reidthompson8979 Yeah they'd have to put drag tires of some sort on it, and with those cars at that point I assume it would need a complete suspension retune for the different tires.
It’s AWD vs RWD and dudes on a full slick no matter how big the tire is if he doesn’t do a burnout he would have little to no grip cause it’s a non prepped surface and it would even be a race. You can also see that the nova has his launch super low and soft just to increase his chance of hooking up and getting traction. You gotta make the race somewhat fair no one wants to see the guy blowing the tires off like what happened with the donk. The hoonicorn is almost guaranteed to hook up cause AWD hence the lack of a burnout. And even if the hoonicorn does haze the tires Ken just drives through it and it gets traction and away he goes. No one is mentioning it cause the hoonicorn is still lighter and makes more power not even on a prepped track would the races be different tbh. The power to weight ratios are just too drastically different. They need to bring in an AWD car with similar power and weight to really have a good interesting race. Will they do it probably not but it would make it way more interesting if they did.
I think my favorite part of the hoonicorn is how violently it squats every time KB shifts. Not to be too crude but it literally looks like it's just dryhumping the asphalt the whole way down the track.
Just like every episode on here has been a no contest for Ken. He doesn’t like losing, so he’s not gonna race a car that has a chance at beating him....weaksauce!

Yea don’t like that they changed the distance, was an interesting race but I feel like the guy loses gears or the hp/lb ratio gets him at the end at 1000. Kens car is definitely faster past 500
Watch the second race Ken caught him before 500ft would not have made a difference. The first race Ken caught him right at 500. It would not have mattered. The hoonicorn is probably a low 9 sec car

Well the hoonicorn does keep racing less powerful heavier cars 🙄.. I wanna see it line up with some of the big awd dogs (any ugr lambo , alpha gtr , red demon dsm, speedfactory civic ect ) or hit the stip and race ruby , Leroy , the trick flow camaro ect .. but then we all know the outcomes of those races
Or any real drag car lol ... the power to weight on twins all wheel drive... but I hope they race a real drag car like ruby or a outlaw and watch that ass get busted
@Elliott Swaby The problem is, there's not many cars that can run high 8s on a street 1/4 or 1000 foot strip . K B' s Mustang is a very well oiled machine for the street. Put it on a drag strip and all his advantage is gone .
@Elliott Swaby watch this one , 8 second AWD Audi RS3 Vs Ken Blocks 1400 hp AWD Ford Mustang Hoonicorn. I can't send links but if you type in the above you'll find what your looking for .
Leroy would SMOKE the Hoonicorn. He barely beat a 10 sec drag car. Leroy runs in the 8's and Hoonicorn AIN'T catching Leroy up top. In fact Leroy will pull away from Hoonicorn up top. The no prep will make it a little closer though.
Seemed like that when they did the rx-7x4 runs with a hurt motor and kept turning it up. Data is data. That platform has some capabilities way beyond its simple cladding.
@@jooka2010 what are you even talking about? that car was in perfect condition. it only had to cool down since they didn't want to rip everything apart just to fit in a bigger cooler. that thing was pretty much the first car that actually gave the hoonicorn a run for its money. you might want to rewatch that episode before you say shit like that
@@patrickz7908 yeah, after the first run he told them to turn it up and they swapped the R888R for the TQ's and still lost to him in the second run. the test run he only lost by 1 car
Both of ol Cleets girls will absolutely destroy this thing. Both cars would do low 7's and ruby probably do a wheel stand and still win.... anyways, I think we both know that haha
You know it's solid competition when they crank hoonicorn up to race a naturally aspirated pump gas car. Maximum effort pays off. Epic footage of some epic racing
nope its the 4 wheel drive, if it was just rwd it wouldnt hook as good and would spin through the first 2 or 3 gears, its 1400hp to the rear wheels my friend, with that going to 4 wheels its better all around.
@@gauravdevrani4298 Close ratio sequential 6 speed. Top fuel car needs only a 2 speed, since tire growth at high rpm factors into final drive ratio. 4.5 gallins of Nitro methanol in under 4 seconds in 1320 feet. Tire life? Four passes. Valve springs? Three passes. Clutches? Only the crew chief knows for sure.
he's never raced a car lighter or with more power... never mind both. He stacks the deck in these races. He's also fully sponsored with a huge budget racing small time guys that build their own cars...
I think a 9ff 997 Turbo could do it like the street car one with 2000hp OR a Boba Golf. Germany has a lot of absolute street weapons that could beat the hoonicorn but I bet these guys would not like to be beaten by a MKI Golf at all lol
I mean idk what you want from them lol. Last race they gave two cars and the hit. Ken's reaction time was slow as hell and the hoonicorn still destroyed. It's just a ridiculously fast car.
@HELLFISH better to sandbag on slow opponents than to get an actual race, right guys? ... guys? For real though, the closest on paper have been the RS3 and Rob. The RS3 would mop the hoonicorn on a tire, I believe it took the W off camera, and Rob was fingers crossed he didn't blow up on his first drive. I get the hype machine, but we need an actual matchup, one they're not worried about filming.
Why not get the laptop out? Unless you are specifically hotlapping the car there's no reason not to check data and make adjustments that's how you go faster
@@nickstalker3254 They don’t want to race against any of those legit drag racers, because they know they’ll lose and it’ll be bad advertisement for the Hoonicorn (and Forza)

I’m guessing this is the weekly program to hold us over till we get a redesign of the hoonicorn or something completely new like the hoonifox
Streaming (UA-cam) is killing TV, YT is the new TV.
@@Jmrose-lc2uq isnt he giving away the fox
The hoonicorn flying by THAT fast just shows how incredibly fast it really is
He lost an engine though. Still fast nevertheless
Or it just lighter with more power
Well the hoonicorn does keep racing less powerful heavier cars 🙄.. I wanna see it line up with some of the big awd dogs (any ugr lambo , alpha gtr , red demon dsm, speedfactory civic ect ) or hit the stip and race ruby , Leroy , the trick flow camaro ect .. but then we all know the outcomes of those races
@@brocks692 or the zr1 lmfaoo
@@ejdavis8215 Well that is generally how you make a car faster, by making it lighter and giving it more power...
Ken: Drag racing, yes
Best line in the video
When you going to race Leroy the savage
604123 or even Ruby HAH
Fr! Not to be rude or anything but I wanna see Ken loose at least once
Cleetus commented last week saying race
The elephant in the room:
Hoonicorn vs. Ruby or Leroy
Hi
Or any real drag car lol ... the power to weight on twins all wheel drive... but I hope they race a real drag car like ruby or a outlaw and watch that ass get busted
@Elliott Swaby Jealous much . Your dreaming .
@Elliott Swaby The problem is, there's not many cars that can run high 8s on a street 1/4 or 1000 foot strip . K B' s Mustang is a very well oiled machine for the street. Put it on a drag strip and all his advantage is gone .
@Elliott Swaby watch this one , 8 second AWD Audi RS3 Vs Ken Blocks 1400 hp AWD Ford Mustang Hoonicorn. I can't send links but if you type in the above you'll find what your looking for .
When are y’all getting Cletus & Leroy out there
FACTS!! That's who I want to see!
@@mdotjdesigns That was a question not a fact.
Leroy would SMOKE the Hoonicorn. He barely beat a 10 sec drag car. Leroy runs in the 8's and Hoonicorn AIN'T catching Leroy up top. In fact Leroy will pull away from Hoonicorn up top. The no prep will make it a little closer though.
@@backburner2128 col·lo·qui·al·ism: a word or phrase that is not formal or literal, typically one used in ordinary or familiar conversation... 👌
Probably wont see him since he would beat the hoonicorn😂
Nova n hoonicorn looking real thick 😮💨
At the end of the day 1400 Hp is still 1400 Hp though. That was crazy.
And 500lbs lighter AND 4wd.
@@wtfiswiththosehandles yeah based on the stats alone you could pretty much call that whole race
Also 2 turbos
I think it would have been interesting had the Nova had at least an additional 300hp of Nitrous.
Theory: They’re pushing the hoonicorn to its max before they make a new version?
Yeah it's true that's it
it will blow up at some point for sure, dont they have like a cylinder down already?
Seemed like that when they did the rx-7x4 runs with a hurt motor and kept turning it up. Data is data. That platform has some capabilities way beyond its simple cladding.
The Fox Body Version is in the works..
The White fox has been previewed before
Ken needs to start adding hash marks on his car door for every car he beats.
Nice 👌
That livery would look like the car went through a thorny briar patch with all the win hashes.
Just the door? The whole car will be covered in no time.
He wouldn't have enough space after a few months XD
Whens he going to race a worthy opponent on here
It's like the hoonicorn is learning on its own . Every race. It's pretty impressive how hard that nova leaves on a unprepped surface.
The second the hoonicorn cracks second gear it's gone, absolutely mind boggling
Ken "it was really cool seeing an actual race car line up next to me" *The rs3* "am I a joke to you?"
Living life fast has some good videos of euro monsters. It’s only him reviewing cars but still can be a good watch.
That car was falling apart....
@@jooka2010 what are you even talking about? that car was in perfect condition. it only had to cool down since they didn't want to rip everything apart just to fit in a bigger cooler. that thing was pretty much the first car that actually gave the hoonicorn a run for its money. you might want to rewatch that episode before you say shit like that
And Iroz had to use the first race as a test run. If they would have done best of 5 the RS3 would have won, no problem.
@@patrickz7908 yeah, after the first run he told them to turn it up and they swapped the R888R for the TQ's and still lost to him in the second run. the test run he only lost by 1 car
HOONICORN VS Leroy
HOONICORN VS Ruby “I got my money on Cletus”
Both of ol Cleets girls will absolutely destroy this thing. Both cars would do low 7's and ruby probably do a wheel stand and still win.... anyways, I think we both know that haha
For sure vs leroy. Ruby is to fast.
Broooo i was thinking the same thing we need ruby to go against hoonicorn
On a unprepared road i think cletus will spin to muxh
Yeah that's a race I'd like to see have something that actually has some competition and not continually race people they know they can easily beat
What we need is a hoonicorn vs. Rimac Nevera
Hoonicorn vs Blasphemi would be an interesting race to see, ya know, once they're done putting Blashphemi back together... again.
I love this guy, definitely the most fun drag races I’ve seen in the series
Teacher: What do you wanna be when you grow up?
Me: The Hoonicorn
Same bro
Soooo gay
@@internettroll5818 I was gonna ask why then I saw your name
You know it's solid competition when they crank hoonicorn up to race a naturally aspirated pump gas car. Maximum effort pays off. Epic footage of some epic racing
The look on John's face when he heaes that he's got rod knock in the engine is one of pure agony. Man knows the feeling.
Yeah i know the pain
Its the Hoonicorns sick transmission that gets him so much acceleration. That thing is mad!
I honestly think he might be quicker if he didn't have to shift as much.
nope its the 4 wheel drive, if it was just rwd it wouldnt hook as good and would spin through the first 2 or 3 gears, its 1400hp to the rear wheels my friend, with that going to 4 wheels its better all around.
I think it's the extreme short gearing coz se he changes gears every second after that thing starts going
@@gauravdevrani4298 Close ratio sequential 6 speed. Top fuel car needs only a 2 speed, since tire growth at high rpm factors into final drive ratio. 4.5 gallins of Nitro methanol in under 4 seconds in 1320 feet.
Tire life? Four passes. Valve springs?
Three passes. Clutches? Only the crew chief knows for sure.
I’d say it has more to do with them two turbo’s hanging out of the bonnet...
*wipes out laptop for hoonicorn”
Then: “Okay shit more boost more boost”
whips*
we want hoonicorn on a prepped track against ruby. keep postin' it guys, make it happen lol
Or against Mullet
Ken looks at camera: “this is a real drag car folks”
Do one with Cleetus Mcfarlands “Leroy” that would be legendary
Or ruby
James' 240 would be interesting tbh
They won't because Ken will get smoked by any of those cars.
They only race people they know they can beat...
@@billwhitfield7437 the giant ass turbo sticking on to of that car probably slows it down imo
“Oh no, Ken lost.” “Let’s add more power and make it a longer race.” “Yeah, that’s a good idea.” THE HOONICORN IS WILD. 🥴😴
Hahahahaha that's what I thought
Yeap
Literary the longest 1st gear and he's gapping the hoonicorn
Beep boop
@@carguynewb7856 with a old school big block Chevy N/A thats fuckin impressive for a +3500 lbs nova.
That Nova was savage AF
man..... RIP Ken Block
what a legend. i usually don't say this but look at the amount of smiles he puts in people's faces man.... rest easy, champ
One thing we've learned from this series so far is that the Hoonicorn is a WEAPON
lmao infinite money goes a long way, and having the full ford racing team at your disposal :)
and every car they choose has less hp.. lol
Yeah, they still haven’t found a car that makes the same or more power. Most are a little heavier as well.
Put AMS Alfa 2000HP GTR on drag slicks. Than we will see.
@@ryanolson6794 ill tell you what, that blue audi race on slicks was one damn intense race
This series turn to "who can beat the hoonicorn"
Basically, Hoonicorn = Legendary Status.
Well that is exactly what was the intention here lol
he's never raced a car lighter or with more power... never mind both. He stacks the deck in these races. He's also fully sponsored with a huge budget racing small time guys that build their own cars...
I think a 9ff 997 Turbo could do it like the street car one with 2000hp OR a Boba Golf. Germany has a lot of absolute street weapons that could beat the hoonicorn but I bet these guys would not like to be beaten by a MKI Golf at all lol
@@jth_printed_designs agree man
I love how good natured all the teams are.
On everything...help hommie out with that engine.
Hoonigan 4 lyfe
Petition to get a Hoonicorn vs Leroy race set up
MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!!
yess lets go cleetus :)
bet they're scared
I've seen that hoonicorn at "Need for Speed: No limits"
They are to scared to let their brand car lose lol
The gearing in the Hoonicorn is insane, just rips!
The guy in the Nova is a true racer. Dude was enthusiastic and easy going...even when he bent a rod!
this race was AWESOME. I love that Nova
Now me and the mad scientist gotta rip a part the block and replace the piston rings u fried..oohhh
The sound of those gears banging never gets old! Another sweet af race!
Hope y’all hooked dude up with a new motor! Think that would be pretty slick of the Hoonigans!!
@Daniele R you really think them scumbags did that? lol
It's just the cost of competition. Hoonigan owes nothing.
@@lordflufffluff Exactly. He chose to run his car the way he did.
Hell no
That is just the risk what do you think... Somebody ask me to race I say yes and I break my car.
Too bad
The first episode I've seen where I cant hear the hoonicorn lol damn
I love how instead of running the closest race back and doing best 2/3 with that, they move the goalposts to make sure Ken wins
I agree with you but after that second race it looked like he was ahed before even the 500ft mark
I guess they can't take an L
I mean idk what you want from them lol. Last race they gave two cars and the hit. Ken's reaction time was slow as hell and the hoonicorn still destroyed. It's just a ridiculously fast car.
I mean they did give him a hit and much more than “1 car”
@@julianaponte3207 it was also against car that wasn’t even done
“The hit and one car” Ken gives him like 2.5 cars and the hit 😂
Ofentse Mwase Films nooo that was almost two full car lengths. One car would be the Hoonicorn front bumper lined up close to the Nova’s rear bumper
@@nicholasf4315 exactly.
Ken's definitely got a scramble button in that thing.
Sayce button !!
Or is it a Anti-Sandbag button? 🤔
This is the dopest series ever
Wow. A car with less power and more weight lost. Who would’ve imagined
He got him on the 500 tho, pretty good for what it is
@@billgreenly5522 do you realise how close the 500 was?
@HELLFISH Interesting. So that's why they keep saying that Ken is getting faster every run, cause he really does get faster.
@HELLFISH better to sandbag on slow opponents than to get an actual race, right guys? ... guys?
For real though, the closest on paper have been the RS3 and Rob. The RS3 would mop the hoonicorn on a tire, I believe it took the W off camera, and Rob was fingers crossed he didn't blow up on his first drive.
I get the hype machine, but we need an actual matchup, one they're not worried about filming.
Haha word but its for the views wait till the Hondas start showing up
"That cars just seems like it gets faster, I don't understand"
Tell Ken's tuner not to hook up to the laptop after each pull.
Right especially considering all the data they got they got the hoonicorn dailed
Drag guys do this. Fuck that. Smoke em if you got em.
Why not get the laptop out? Unless you are specifically hotlapping the car there's no reason not to check data and make adjustments that's how you go faster
Run whatya brung
@@nickstalker3254 They don’t want to race against any of those legit drag racers, because they know they’ll lose and it’ll be bad advertisement for the Hoonicorn (and Forza)
Please never stop hoonicorn vs the world this shit is fucking amazing
