- Introducing the HOONIPIGASUS! I teamed up with Mobil 1 Racing and BBi Autosport to build this absolutely INSANE 1400hp 4.0L twin turbo flat-six engine all-wheel drive 6-speed Sadev sequential transmission having Vintage 911 racecar! Oh wait, I forgot to mention the GPS activated height adjustable suspension, yeah it has that too. Throw a livery from the GucciGhost (@troubleandrewofficial) himself and we’ve got ourselves a bad ass racecar. I’m ridiculously excited to rip this thing at Pikes Peak International Hill Climb this year. Here is everything that went into making this dream a reality! Go pig or go home!
Thanks to our sponsors for making the Hoonipigasus a reality!

3:48 just don't die hits different now. RIP Ken Block
My heart dropped as soon I read that 😔😭. He is now a legend 🤘🏻. RIP Ken we all love you ❤
too fucking real now man , why did he have to go
Almost prescient, ain't it ?
Yeah. That bloody ghost.
Absolutely gutted that we’ll never get to see Ken drive this monster 💔💔💔
Let's hope Lia picks up where Dad left off and carries on his awesome Legacy 🕊💙💯
He was a good stunt driver.
I always thought this car breaking down on Pike's Peak hill climb did save his life.
I the same age at 55 y/o > I'm an American driver too ( for uber LUX)
He has driven it boi
Lisa can rip it now!
didn't he drive it? I hope he did
3:50 The "Just don't die" hits so different now...
If there ever was a car deserving of the "HillClimb Monster" moniker... 🔥🔥🔥
nice Videos my friend
Love your content!
Simply amazing...🤯🤯
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love your videos you show some awesome hill climb monsters
4.0 Flat 6... 2 biggest turbos made by garret.... 3 injectors a cylinder... Rpm of 9600..... wow the engine specs sound beautiful
I know huh 1500 hp and 2700 lbs like 😲😳🤤
@@jo-qp7mz i think he said 1400hp and weighs less than 2300 lbs, i might be wrong tho
At the time of the event the engine wasn't running yet, so idk how accurate these estimates usually are. Either way I agree, 1400 reliable horsepower from a 4.0 liter is insane.
@@dawatch65 Sounds about right. That might be dry weight though
@@danielb6472 Methanol helps.
I find the respect that Ken gives to his livery artist amazingly cool and classy. Ken's always been a class act, but this is next level.
A sub 2300lbs mid engine, 1400hp, awd, hill climb 911… I have literally never been so in love with a car. Everything about this is amazing.
I would love to see Lia drive this beast behalf of her father... I'm sure Ken would be proud... Rest in peace... U were the G.O.A.T
👍
Just watched that episode earlier. Was damn emotional 😢but incredibly awesome
I know you commented this a year ago, but she did get to drive the Hoonipigasus at Pike’s Peak Hill Climb last year!
I love that Ken has always worked with artist that basically get free rein of the design with not much holding them back. You could even say that the cars are less restricted now that he’s not solely limited to one manufacturer
Hey Todd is that silly reply we all get a scam?
I honestly never thought you guys would ever come close to matching the coolness of the Hoonicorn, but this is pretty F-ing sick on every level! The Porsche throwbacks (the pig, the ducktail, etc), the artwork, the insane bodywork, to the mechanicals... You ALL killed it with this one!!!
Ok Ok.. but is not like a first time either because some people will remember that Porsche had Pink-Pig livery for European circuits 24h LeMans from 1970.. up to modern days but, but what it will be more interesting to see if Ken will manage to finnish the race and win with this custom Porsche Flying Pig at the Pikes Peak or how good it's time will be against Sebastian Loeb record who went there and nailed a record as King of the Peak in a unrestricted Peugeot 208 T16 that was back in 2013 !!!..
@@poplaurentiu4148 imagine if this car in Colin McRae DiRT.
Maybe it's an age thing, but frankly I think this looks pig ugly, none of it has flow just doesn't work for me.
@@eyesodd I'm in my 50's and use to race Porsches, I love everything about it!
So Sad That We Can’t See Him Drive This Masterpiece 😢
I really hope some of the content they're going to be coming out with it has him ripping it
Heartbroken but thank you for being you Ken you were an inspiration and left a legendary legacy in your wakes.
Looks like something out of a video game, doesn’t look real even though it is😂. Super excited to see what it can with all that power and aero💪🏻
ken block build cars videogames are based on !
June 26th, marked in calendar.
@@diehardpizza7107 truth
I literally thought it was a gt7 car lol
@@Julianklaus Wasn't there a ?gt3 car that became a prototype? I'd like to say Citroen, but I can't remember.
As soon as I saw the BBI logo I knew that this is gonna be good - because Betim knows a thing or two about beating the sh*t out of purpose-built Porsches up Pikes Peak... 😁😎👍
get a job you bums 👆👆👆
So, Betim doesn't seem to beat the crap out of anything. He does, however, oversee and plan some of the best built/most successful race and street cars in the US! With Orlov engineering and Obsidian on his side, he can't possibly lose!! Just facts!
GPS-assisted automated active suspension? That sounds *INSANE* 🤣🤣🤣
They have been around since the 90s.
@@kevbaken via GPS? Had no idea
@@gseric4721 You can look it up. Early 90s formula ones had similar systems for their traction control amd acrive suspension.
Factory motocross teams have adaptative engine mapping to give the rider a little more traction or power when approaching certain obstacles. I am not totally sure if it is controlled by GPS though.
Man its crazy that he is gone now and won't get to drive this thing. Hoonigan and everything won't be the same. But he lived a crazy wild dangerous life. Watching his last rally driving video you can tell it was catching up to him. That porche looks like it would have been insanely dangerous. It just looks fast standing still.
I always thought that pink Porsche breaking down at Pike's Peak saved his life
Always loved the Hoonicorn….but I’m a Porsche guy first. Absolutely incredible team delivered the coolest car in the world
Agreed. Amazing to see them come together on this
This is the Hoonicorn for Porsche guys 🔥
@@TheHoonigans really is.
@@TheHoonigans I got a weird msg telling me I won a prize, 2nd time it's happened but I don't trust it ...they have a number in their name on here..
@@stevencuenca1980 Better ignore it, it's spam.
Ok ok you win again, best car ever for my eyes. Well played. Ellis mate to boot, love that guy, awesome. 🤘🔥😎🔥🤘
❤️🔥
First off. MUCH RESPECT FOR SHOWING THE PIKES PEEK ESCUDO. You really did Your homework on this one. And got it right. The greatest fastest cars in the entire world are the Formula Ones then the LMPs then the Porches the 911 GT R modern day race cars. Awesome. Excited to see how it performs.
So sad we wont see him drive this 😢
Holy shit if that artist isn't the biggest cliche that ever happened. Oh lord.
you sound like an angry, miserable little texan 🤣
Legit just scribbles shit and is a pretentious dickhead
Yeah, nothing original about his art nor the cars arts it's carbon copy of many others. . I wish he copied the taycan Porsche art cars instead.
The world needs more based comments, thank you.
THANKYOU, I was looking for this comment. The "artist" is a class A douche
So sick! I love how well BBI does their cars and I love, even more, how Ken reaches out to continually different artists for his liveries. They are always sick, it helps the artist (not that the artist needed much help getting noticed here lol), and I just genuinely wish more drivers did stuff like this because it is so interesting and sick!... Sorry, RAD!
11:01 Holy shit! That arm hanging out the window as they were rolling was scary as hell!!!
I thought the same thing! Scary!
My brain at 3:32 into this video..."this is the most beautiful amalgamation of technology and motorsports passion ever created".... Mr. Block, Mr. Scotto, thank you for helping me reconnect with my kids!
rob Dahm is probably in the back with a protractor and some graph paper
We made him empty all of his pockets before coming in 😂
I'd have rather seen more about the development of the machine itself, engineering, windtunnel, tuning.... rather then the paint and decals!
1,000%
will come in future videos for sure
try to appreciate things you usually dont care about but other people live and love every day
im a car guy too but design and artists can be interesting as hell too
Patience.
It’ll come. You new to this channel? They always make separate videos for the cars. That means more content 😎
@@f308gtb1977 1%? :D
Creativity, the lifeblood of excitement. Never stop dreaming, as these Hoonigan cars are testament to that philosophy. Just so inspirational for young and old alike, it feels like a new chapter in a good book, full of suspense.
This is an absolute monster! Shout out to Ken for taking care of his team and and giving people credit. Good job.
Awesome car..too much time talking about the paint job, too little about the mechanics of this monster. The really important things that will get this car up top in less than 9 minutes (other than Kens driving)
Betim hinted they were gonna make another video about it if you listen closely
First the outside, then the inside. As a designer I actually appreciate that they highlight their livery artist, where it came from and why. I'm sure there will be countless videos on the mechanicals, usually not many on the art itself.
Apparently breaking the nine minute barrier comes secondary to selling stuff
hoonigans vid covered everything
@@andylewis7360 Right? Breaking the nine minute barrier doesn’t cost a lot of money. He spent time highlighting an artist who contributed to the project instead of talking about loud engine noises! It’s hard to understand why he’d do that…
Dude looks like he’s wearing a Fez made from a 1970’s sofa. The round sunglasses indoors doesn’t redeem it.🤣
Hahahahahahaha
I remember watching the 2010 100 acre wood rally when I was too young to even understand what a steering rack was. This video inspired me to go out, buy a 2001 toyota celica 6 speed manual, and save every ounce of money I could to make it into a hill climb car. I'm pretty stripped for cash right now, but I'm so inspired, so motivated, and so happy :) Without you, I'd still be looking at cool builds, hoping to one day making my own. Thank you so much, and I wish you the best!
Car looks amazing. The outer portion of that massive front wing/splitter looks like it is going to be great for sealing the underfloor of the car on the sides. You can practically see the vortexes that will be generated.
2 mins talking about the awsome car , and 15 mins about the stickers!!!!
I have no doubt lots of people will eventually make lots of videos all about it. Although I do expect they will be kind of sneaky about exact specs like they were with the Hoonicorn.
Absolutely love this car! Would love a episode on that driveshaft transfer case situation. I feel the only thing I dislike is that color. Anything darker or flashier with his art a matte or something that makes the art stand out a little more would be better. Do love the rally set up though!
exactly i like how they mentioned transfer case and driveshaft that goes over engine, but how it goes down again for front diff? antoher transfer case or universal joints? im curious
@@AutoBat1 I'm not against the pink, I just think if they are going to do a bunch of art on the car, that white and pink blend too easy. Its a little hard to see all the art on it.
I'd like to see the driveshaft situation as well. I do like the color though, you don't have to put lipstick on a pig.
My understanding is that they don't actually have the drive train finished yet. There's still 5 weeks until the race, so I'm sure it'll get done and maybe then we'll see pictures.
I feel like the pink with white keeps the art visible and stylish enough to not clash with the sponsor decals.
It's a really nice blend that keeps your eyes on it
Mad respect to all involved 👏 👏👏 It's beautiful, can't wait to see ken having the time of his life driving it.
3.51 sec give me chills… written “JUST DONT DIE”on the hood ! 😫
Would’ve loved to have seen a full build series on this masterpiece!
Lot of that stuff was proprietary and nobody was gonna distract them with a camera, my guess
@@1997jankuschef I believe it 😂
@@1997jankuschef you don't understand the difference between proprietary and secret. Literally the opposite of each other
awww c'mon Rob Dahm at least login to your main acc 🤣
That looks like a blast to drive!, Congratulations
He will find out soon, at Pikes Peak!
its amazing that ken block was a below average rally driver but still he is the most well known rally driver. marketing is everything
Holy shit.... 9600rpm with that twin turbo flat 4l six just screaming is going to sound INSANE!
I cant wait to see Ken pilot this awesome machine.
Everytime i see a new Hoonigan motorsport car it goes to the next level, huge respect for that, not only the mechanical side but the art and design side of things, amazing!
I grew up snowboarding at the same hill as Trevor Andrew and even at a young age he was amazing to watch. What's been more amazing is to watch his evolution from Snowboarder to musical artist to graphic artist and fashion designer. Can't wait to see where his life goes next.
It has 2 of the biggest turbos ever made….we won’t show you but here is 15 mins of Gucci Ghost
The motor wasn't in the car.
Lmao....ikr car is amazing but color and scheme imo hideous
@@MrAzkush it’s homage to the 917 pink pig
@@dream8870cool...color wouldn't be so bad I think its the kids scribble writing on it just makes it worse.
@@MrAzkush somehow I like it but the fact that it’s done by that dude makes me lose interest. I don’t necessarily think the guy is a dufus but to think your art is cool is kinda weird to me. So basic looking. SMH 🤦♂️
Everything Hoonigan and Ken does is amazing. I love the whole organic thorough process, collaboration, attention to detail, and disruption in the automotive world. Keep up the awesome work.
It'll be fantastic to have Ken back on the mountain. Porsche, Mobil, BBi and Andrew have done a terrific job, and you will make them proud in June. All of us little piglets will be cheering and jumping roadside as you drift by!
I'm a bit concerned about the lack of a center differential.
Audi had a bunch of issues with that in the first quattros before eventually adding a center differential.
Depends on the type of diffs fitted front and rear. If they're like the clutch pack torque vectoring ones fitted to focus RS or Ferrari FF then that's fine. Torque can be applied to any corner then individually
@@Wes_Mo i suppose that's true. You can completely disengage both sides of an axle with that.
Basically gives each axle it's own clutch pack. I play old quattros and work on new VWs. I wanna see a real in depth tech video and test drive with this car. 🤓
True, but material science and engineering has come a long, long way since then. It might very well work now.
@@index7787 what hasn't changed is the fact that when you go around a corner the front wheels travel further than the rear. If you don't have a centre diff is causes binding, extra drag and weird handling, which you don't want when you're trying to go fast.
Maybe ken's loose driving style forcing the rear of the car to be sliding slightly as he goes around corners will compensate for this problem, maybe they've done something else clever with the diffs, either way it's not a material issue, it's physics.
@@Rollin8.0 yeah Rob dime was just talking about the problem with his four rotor turning because of the all-wheel drive it basically pushes the front tires it looks like that's one of the things he was working on fixing in his last video but if it's going to be slid everywhere and drift corners that might not be so bad if he can get his ass end out enough to make it work
I'm sooo pumped. I hope I get to meet you tomorrow Ken! The Portland Trail Rally is going to be my first time at a rally race. The Hoonipegasus is absolutely insane! I love it! The livery on your rally car is badass too! Can't wait til tomorrow afternoon! No sleep tonight hahaha 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
14:20 Love the way "JUST DON'T DIE" is included in the background graphics.
That 43 Ghost was defiantly made for a reason beyond our understanding. life can be so unfair, I firmly believe everything happens for a reason, that there are no such thing as coincidence. you never know when you're time is up but it is not when we expect it. I try to live every day like its my last, keeping high expectations of my future an goals. People like Ken, Travis Parker, and Trouble Andrew have been role models throughout my life. What an amazing ride he had, thank you Ken Block.
Shame CSR 2 got Ken off of forza, would’ve loved to see this crazy monster in that game
Wait - seriously? Hoonigan switched from working with REAL game franchise to a mobile game? Really?
Csr 2 is garbage
It’s not like they ended it sourly so we might see it in forza
@@RyTrapp0 money talks
@@RyTrapp0 unfortunately mobile gaming is the biggest gaming market right now. More devices and an addictive "free" game that manages to get at least $1 off of an insane amount of people who try it.
I thought the ghost was gonna be some kinda PAC-Man themed sorta thing…. Gucci in the race world, bein ushered in by the BLOCK….. ANXIOUS is an understatement.
Ken Block, I've watched you ever since your beginning you and Travis Pastranas have always been my heros since I was about 10 or so I'm turning 25 in a couple days. I'm really excited you and Travis made it so far in life I always knew you would. Your a legend Ken. If there has ever been anyone in real life I'd want to meet it would be you and Travis Pastrana, I even remember my mom getting a picture with Travis when he stopped at the gas station in my small town in Carlin Nevada...I was always so jealous. Anyways long story long. I bought your very first merch when I was a kid...I've always been poor but one time I got to buy your very first merch I got a jacket hat and two shirts with your 43 and the skull on it..I wore it everyday. I wish my life would provide a chance to do some drifting so badly. It breaks my heart. But watching you drift and getting to see you and Travis grow throughout all the years with xgames and all that and now you have your own channel I waited so long for you to make a channel. Thanks a million Ken Block for risking your life to bring is the amazing content you never fail to entertain. God bless you and may God let you live a long life Ken. Your my hero I don't care if I'm an adult now...you can never be to old for Ken Block to be your hero. I don't comment ever because I think comments are cheesey but I figured I'd write this message hoping you might see it anyways have a awesome life Ken Block much love for you and your whole family! You guys rock!
Wow I agree Ken is truely a hero of mine!!! I wish you well in this time of mourning
@@TheTyisawesome so sad 😭 my hero has died but he will forever be remembered as the greatest to ever do it, I hope he read my comment before he died :( I had a feeling idk why but I had a feeling that's why I wrote this comment :( I hope he read my good bye.
I have said it and I will say it again… absolutely a masterpiece.. god y’all left no stone unturned
absolutely awesome - That car is a sub 9 min car easy, as long as it holds together.

Nice
i hope they add this beast to horizon 5
That Gymkhana slide, just raises the hairs on my neck... every.. single time. The Escudo was a beast at ?1380/1400hp also. This 911 reveal literally is giving me shivers. Those Garretts are crazy, seen smaller ones during a Ford Sierra Cosworth (race model) classic rebuild, and even those were nuts.
Just when you feel like they have reached peak vehicle perfection they release this beast. I am blown away by the beauty of this machine. I have the privilege of driving many high end cars at my place of work, but none of them even come close to this mythical thing. Just dont die Ken. 😂
the car is insane. the livery looks like a kid made the design though. first miss on a livery design so far in my opinion. that is secondary though, what’s rad about this car is the mechanical parts. looking forward to hearing more about the technical details!
The closest comparison would be Keith Haring, who also did liveries for German race cars
@@Meccanico208 keith haring is a legend. his style was similar but way cooler
Going to have to map out the "Frost Wedging" on the moutain. I know that the upper section, Devils Playground and up seem to have some serious "Frost Wedging". I wish you the best on tackling Pikes Peak with this monster! Oh and Im sure you have plans to qualify first so you can beat the crazy Colorado weather here.
This is literally THE coolest car i’ve EVER seen. I got goosebumps watching this and…… it’s just insane bro.
I love how Hoonigan goes all out and makes stuff completely unlike anything else out there
Didn't realize Pauly Shore was an artist.
This car looks like it will be OP in S2 class.
That spec alone gives me chills.
Scarry, he predicted the future, that slogan "just don't die", that ghost and his number inside.
Ken has a marketable name ….but is he really the driver to get the quickest time 😭
What you mean? ken is just skillful on a drift show.
in rally he crash every race :D
Good thing his daughter is a better driver than him
This will be known as one of the legendary Porsche’s🔥
The purists might not agree, but it's worthy IMO!!!
No man worthy to drive this car. RIP brotha. Maybe we will see another Block drive it one day.
hope forza gets this monster in their game and the way ken wanted it to be so we all can honor him with tearing it up
I hope that Lia will take it up pikes peak in his honour
The car looks awesome. 😍
I wish u would have shown a bit more of whats under the hood though.
there isn't anything under the hood
The engine wasn't finished at the event. The quote I heard was "we almost have it running".
Miss Pikes Peak being all gravel. Made the races so much better.
Porsche and Lotus Had a golden child. Hats off.
I love ken condines both the art of automotive and literal street art.
Time for This vs That with Hoonipigasus and Boostedboiz 1426whp MR2 🤔 rematch-ish
Drive shaft above the engine........ WHAT! I LOVE IT!
When madness reaches perfection = Ken Block... i have one wish... Ken Block vs Walter Röhrl, Hooni vs Audi at the Pikes Peak...
“Just don’t die” 😢🥺😭
I'd love to see how a car like this would compare track times with other race cars, like f1, 919 Evo, gt3
You'll get to, at PP!
This car is perfection, it is occult, it is Hoonigan.
MUST HAVE MOAR CLIMBKHANA!
Magnus walker 0:40 🙌🏽
HOONIPIG 🙌🏽 Freaking awesome 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Crazy build guys! Congrats on elevating the game again.
How much does that ballistic drive shaft tube weight?
Idk who filmed this but theres no reason this couldnt of been done in 4K at least, I wish there was a full properly lit walk around for this car. Hope to see more in higher definition or maybe in person since video doesnt do it justice. Sick car otherwise!
I love Ellis' face at the very beginning, pure joy
It looks straight out of a video game no matter what lighting is on it
Could've just had a classroom of 8yr old kids make random drawings and saved a lot of money on the livery.
But then you would have a big ol "N word" in the middle of the hood thanks to HOONIGAN being split up by the air ducts....
Idkbwhy these guys haven't started their own car company yet. They design, literally, the best hypercars that have ever graced the pavement....er dirt/ice/ect.
Woohoo! 30 minutes to the top burning rubber smoke show? The mustang did this already!
Awesome Ken at it again. Nice seeing the throtl team there as well🙌👌
Would have loved to hear more about the engineering that went into it but instead we got 10 minutes of some 'artist' waffling on about how his derivative scribbling is some deep fine art form. All so you can sell some crummy shirts to Hoonibros to wear to their next domestic violence court date.

Hoped it would be electric! Especially to combat the altitude.
Ken block left us at his peak! he is a legend
Trevor's artwork is insane. I felt like I was in a video game picking a car to race, I love it. The livery is the best yet. Hoonipig is going to kill it at Pikes Peak, and do it in style. Make sure to let Trevor know that we are in love with the livery.
I’m surprised this is mid-engined. I could’ve sworn you’d keep it rear engined. Was it because of weight distribution or drivetrain placement?
Well let’s hope you make a good deal with playground games 😉😉
most likely weight distribution. but it could be both.
@@Stackali still it’s good they used a flat 6 as there’s a lower centre of gravity
@@Andrew9565-AD It´s a Boxer Engine not a flat 6, there is a different between those two concepts regarding the structure of the crankshaft and the resulting piston movement
@@ztranier7968 sorry I meant Boxer. I thought they were the same thing as many people call them like that. I’ve just looked it up and Boxer engine is something characteristic to Porsche and a flat 6 is a V engine stretched to 180 degrees
@@Andrew9565-AD Flat 6 is still correct as a boxer is still a flat 6, by definition flat means 180 degree V engine. The difference between a boxer and other V engines is the split crank pins, that V engines don't have. ALL automotive Flat 6s have been boxers, in contrast to flat 12s, where it doesn't make sense to split the crank pins and make the engine more complex as it already has good enough balance.
All boxers are flats, but not all flats are boxers.
Yeesh, that Trevor Andrew is such a lame-o, dudes a walking cliché like someones(his probably) idea of what a artist is. Surprised he doesn't have a bunch of soup cans stacked up. On top of that, his art is all stolen ideas, nothing original.
13:32 " Just dont die " Ken... but i dont know... as we know, you always live in our hearts_ 😢
I'm not the biggest fan of a paved Pike's Peak but I can't wait to see that Pig fly.
Is it just me or is this "art" mediocre? I mean seriously? Wtf am I looking at these people talk out of the sides of their mouths absolutely babbling I love art this is not art.
