Ken Block’s latest addition to his seemingly never-ending crazy driving video portfolio is something we all wish we could do -- run the Pikes Peak Hill Climb circuit. While that’s not in itself that crazy, Block takes his now-turbocharged Hoonicorn all-wheel-drive Ford Mustang up the hill with a constant trail of tire smoke.
You might recognize Block’s Mustang from an earlier Gymkhana installment. Blocks first Hoonicorn sported a naturally aspirated 6.7-liter V8 that spit 845 hp to a rally-bred all-wheel-drive system via a sequential transmission. The nearly 900-hp Mustang wasn’t powerful enough, it seems, and Block had a pair of turbochargers fitted to the engine, which now sends 1,400 hp to the same system.
Have you ever seen a 1,400 hp all-wheel-drive Mustang drift the entire way up Pikes Peak? No? Well, now you can.
