Ken Block's Hoonicorn V2
The drift machine that starred in Gymkhana Seven was
Ken Block's insane Hooniocorn. Since 845 horsepower apparently wasn't enough,
Block has reworked the car into what he's calling Hoonicorn V2, and it's
packing 1,400 horsepower. The stunt driver must be on a power trip.
The Hoonicorn V2 still has the same 6.7-liter,
410-cubic-inch V8 at the front, but the motor has been reworked to run on
methanol and bestowed with a custom twin-turbo setup for a total of 1,400
horsepower. The previous Hoonicorn already had enough power to spin all four
tires, by the way.
The new Hoonicorn V2 is overkill in
the best way possible. Block unveiled the machine on his Facebook page where he
gives an overview of the changes that have been made.
The vehicle, according to Hoonigan, was made for a
new video concept that requires a vehicle that has more power than the old
Hoonicorn. Block claims that this is the scariest car he's ever driven, and
we're inclined to believe the man behind the Gymkhana series.
