Ken Block has accustomed us to manoeuvres in his videos. And the american rider has just to push the insanity even further.
In his latest video called Climbkhana and posted on YouTube today, Block roared down the roads leading to the summit of Pikes Peak, one of the highest mountains of Colorado.
And he has not done with any car. To achieve all this, Ken Block has made a call to a Ford Mustang 1965 radically changed, and dubbed Hoonicorn RTR V2. With a V8 twin-turbo 1400 horses under the hood and a wheel to four-wheel drive, it is a Mustang that is unique in the world. Nothing less.

As usual, the images that we provide Ken Block and his car are simply mind blowing.
Spectacular from one end to the other, Climbkhana watch how Ken Block pushes the limits of his car. At 5:15, we realize that the audacity of the driver has almost turn against him.
Making a turn to the side of the mountain at full speed, Block has seen the rear wheels of his Mustang coming dangerously close to the cliff. A few inches more, and it would have well been able to turn to the drama.
Block has made mention in a publication on Facebook a few days ago, calling the turn “very, very dangerous” and explaining that his wife was not too happy to see these images!
Fortunately, all’s well that ends well. Ken Block and his car were unharmed, and was already looking forward to his next short film.
