  • Hoonicorn vs The World is BACK! But we’ve made a few changes this time around... We added paddle shifting to the SADEV Sequential transmission, weird science prototype VF503 wheels from American Racing, all-new livery, and maybe a few "beep boops" to give it a little more GO. First challenger? U.S. Nationals NHRA champion Alex Laughlin and his ridiculously ridiculous 4,000 HORSEPOWER 526ci Hemi C6 Corvette, enjoy!

    A little tear in my eye... I'm seeing this video for the first time - just days after learning about my favorite driver's passing. Lia is AMAZING. I can't wait to see what she does. And I think part of my emotional response to this video is the fact that my own daughter's name is Lia (now 18 years old)... same spelling... a leukemia survivor (diagnosed at 11). Now I'm a Lia Block fan, too. My condolences to the Block family.

    RIP Ken. I gotta say though this is why I love AWD so so much. Not just in a straight line, the extra grip is insane. Back in the 90's I was a poor kid with a legit 10 sec naturally aspirated fox body mustang with, get this: a 410" stroker with steel crank and rods but carbed. It was a blast on a prepped track but dry roads felt like ice. I ran a top loader 4spd because I couldn't afford a tremec trans. I could smoke Eagle GTs at 65 in high gear on the highway just by punching it. Later on I had an 1800lb 66 911 with a carbed and hot rodded 911SC 3.0 liter, another totally tail happy car. Once I got a chance to drive a newer AWD 911 turbo it was all over for me with RWD. Mad props to the NHRA driver for giving it a go on that course and !ad props to Lia, fantastic driving! We all miss your dad, we can all see you are living up to your surname!!!

      All this is true, but I prefer cars which are fun and usable in the varied situations of the real world, rather than one trick ponies which need a specially prepared 1/4 mile stretch to do "their thing". That the Hoonicorn could get anywhere close to a dedicated drag car in a straight line makes it worthy of respect considering it could also be used on a rally course or winding road where the drag car would have no chance.

    Alex Laughlin is a class act. It sounds silly, but a car like that on no prep always has a disadvantage to an AWD car. When you watch the 1320 video no prep races you see that as long as the AWD cars can keep from scattering their drivetrain they dominate. Beyond 900 or so HP it's a traction game.
