TOYO TIRES | Ken Block’s Climbkhana: Pikes Peak Featuring the Hoonicorn V2 

Absolutely Speechless. Rest in peace Ken. You will be terribly missed. My prayers go out to his family

It's impossible not to feel fragile when a man who seems so invincible passes away... Rest in Peace Legend.

He made it look so effortless, so clean. It's hypnotic and heart racing. One of the best drivers of all time.

Just got back from Denver and went to the lower summit at about 13,000 feet. Seeing the turns in person that he had driven up was terrifying yet made me respect his ability even more. RIP Ken!

i refuse to believe he’s gone. there’s just absolutely no way. i love watching him so much. RIP Ken Block

I can't believe he's gone, man. He must've inspired so many young drivers around the world, including me. Thanks for everything, Ken. You'll be truly missed. Rest in Peace.

Everyone dies twice, the day your body dies and the day that no one remembers you anymore. In this way, Ken will live on forever because of his amazing career and videos like this. His legacy and his legend guarantee his immortality. Long live the king.

Absolutely terrifying. Ken always did the stuff we thought was only possible in video games.

Coming back to rewatch this, the man that made me love hearing the roar of an engine and shredding tires, constantly looking for cars on the street, chasing that adrenaline speed, drifting, and rally racing and shaping car culture as we know it…Rest in peace Ken Block. You will missed heavily.

Rest in Peace Ken Block, absolute legend, you will be missed.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Block. You're truly missed by everyone.

I found out today about the accident, and ken if you reading this up there I’d just like to let you know that watching your videos taught me how to drift my truck and now I can safely execute a precise drift. Rest In Peace Ken. The whole car community will miss you a lot.

At a very young age, a tire hurt Ken Block. These videos are his revenge stories.

RIP to a true racing legend and an inspiration to us all

Dude I drove up that peak in a rental car and was shitting bricks, this man was drifting Respect!! Holy crap!

I've watched this video hundreds times. I can't believe, watching it now, that you're not with us anymore. Looking at you driving that beast, enjoying the beast engine sound, knowing you're passed away, is not the same thing like before. Rest in peace, Ken.

Nothing will ever top this masterpiece of a video. Rest in peace Ken, we’ll miss you

Actually being there and driving on those roads makes me REALLY understand how crazy this is. Both the driving aspect and the ability to build a car with that much power that can stay cool and run right with such a dramatic elevation change. SO GOOD!

*casually checks the 280 degree brakes

This is a work of art in the form of methanol, turbos, and all wheel drive fire breathing V8 monster. Ken brought me into the car scene and I’ve never looked back since. This guy was a huge inspiration for many and I was one of them. I doubt that people will ever be able to do what he did. This one is hard but we all know he is sliding in paradise. To the Beethoven of tire slaying. Rest easy❤️❤️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️

The thing I like most about this; no music, just engine noise and tire screeching. Bliss.

Rest in peace Ken. A true pioneer and motivation to millions of kids worldwide.

The impact Ken has had on my life from a young age always inspired me and made me more interested in cars in general and that will be for so many people across the globe. He is Successful in so many ways and a great family man and friend from what I have seen from his personal life. Me and my dad used to sit around the table watching videos of him driving laughing at how unbelievable he was, something I will always remember as a young lad wishing I could one day drive like that… 31 now and I can safely say I will never be able to but thanks for making me feel like I could as a young boy. Rest in peace xx

I remember watching gymkhana 2 as a child and just being mesmerized at Ken’s abilities behind the wheel…you’re a true inspiration buddy and we all miss you dearly.

Rest in peace Ken Block. A true pioneer of the scene. There will never be another driver like you

I'd feel safer with Ken doing this than I would having my sister drive to wal mart. The control he has is insane.

RIP brother. There will never be another like you. I’m just glad we got to live in the same timeline

What a wonderful man. So modest, fun and engaging. He will be sorely missed.

my favorite thing about these short films is that there is no music

No music just shifting, screeching, revving, and god damn exhaust screaming. That’s the way it’s supposed to be.

whenever i feel rough or having a bad day, i come watch this you could be blind and still love this, the sounds alone bring a smile to my face i wasnt the biggest fan of ken, but he was the force behind the hoonicorn, the car i have never stopped wanting to recreate and love, all he did for drifting to become more mainstream in games etc too

RIP Ken Block. You truly were the Bob Ross of drivers. Smoking those happy little tires on the happy little mountain. You really did beat the devil out of those tires.

This guy has more Control on his car than me walking on my feet

This is how my parents think I drive when I drive at 26 mph and not 25 mph.

Back to where the drift really lived, the mountains, the touge itself.

What this man did, will never not be awesome no matter how many time I watch it! You may be gone, but your legend will live forever! R.I.P Ken

"4 wheel drive cant drift" **laughs in 1400hp*

It's amazing how many people this legend has influenced outside of his own personal life. His ripple has cast an enormous wave that stretches out to millions of people, motivating them...driving them...pushing them to their limits. Ken, you are going to be missed. You will never be forgotten. You always have a place in my heart.

I was fortunate enough to get to visit Pikes Peak in the summer of 2021. I had seen this video back in 2019 when I was a few months shy of graduating high school, so to actually be there in person and see and drive that road for myself was a dream come true. I'll never forget that experience. It all inspired me to look more into high performance cars, and what it takes to make something like this and what it takes to drive it as well. I'm now in trade school, learning to work on cars and maybe even have a passion project car of my own. To hear the news of his untimely departure from this earth has deeply saddened me and many other people. Ken Block might not have known it, but he was a true inspiration to people far and wide besides myself to pursue the field of the automotive industry and to discover something we came to love. To Ken, I thank you for showing not just me but the world your side of what cars can be, and how they can perform outside of just racing or daily driving. Your level of creativity and ingenuity will never be able to be replaced. RIP Ken Block

What a legend. It's hard to believe he will never get to do another burnout. Life is short and the older you get the more you see it

His life is basically, playing a racing game in Hardcore mode, if you crash once your savegame is deleted. For 30 years straight, still on the same savegame. How.

Of all the content he made over the years, this video was my favourite of all. Fucking love this run and it's so devastating he's gone now. RIP Ken 💔

Legends will always live in our hearts. Ken was an absolute unit on the road, dirty, and everything else. Handling a 1400 hp car like it’s nothing.

5:25 will be the most iconic photo ever taken in motorsports history rip to the tire killer legend!!!!!

Rest In Peace Legend. Thank you for everything you did for motorsports and all the entertainment. Generations of Hoonigans will remember you for the amazing human you were.

rest in peace ken, this culture wouldn’t be what it is now if it weren’t for you and your team. motorsports lost a legend, but you’ll live on through tire smoke and the sounds of fearless, relentless driving. absolutely unreal.

We all remember the thrill finding out Ken Block had done another video that we could watch. Still miss you Legend. You leave behind a very small part of what you were for us all to remember you by. Thanks for sharing your gift RIP

"In life, from the simplest thing to the biggest thing, I want to be proud of what it is and stake my claim: That's mine and that's how I do it." - Ken Block R.I.P 😢

I can't imagine Kens expression when he has to drive the minivan with his kids after doing things like this.

Rewatching this on the day of his death, I have no words. No one will forget the Evo corner send. Ken Block is without a doubt, one of Motorsports legends. May he rest in peace

I can't believe this man brought me my passion and my friends all together during highschool. I would never be where I was now if Ken didn't introduce me to living on the edge and the excitement anyone can get from drifting especially when you know you might drift to your literal death. It's the most unexplained feeling ever and I'm glad that this legend introduced me to it even though I never got to meet him. What an absolute blessing. Prayers and condolences to his family and friends.

This bloke has lived 15 times the lives most of us will ever live. Thanks for the memories Ken. You legend🤘

This man inspired many young drivers like myself to get behind the wheel for more than daily driving...he will truly missed RIP...I hope the streets of gold are ready to be torn up

THAT moment near the top, throwing dirt over what looks like the edge of the earth, that has to be one of the most iconic images in Motorsport entertainment ever! RIP legend, your art will live on forever

I honestly truly hope his daughter continues his legacy with cars and hooning. I'm sure collective the car community itself sure will continue it and support her as well. Rest in peace Ken you truly were an icon in the motorsports world and more, and inspired more people that you realized. #KB43VER

I've been a Ken Block fan since High School. I remember watching his original Subaru snowboard jump video from "DC Mtn Lab 1.5" at school fifteen years ago. What a legend. You Sir, will be missed.

Ken's kids: Dad we're late for school Ken: Say no more.

me: orders something from amazon at 23: 59 and chooses same day delivery delivery guy:

Ripping this thing in FH5 was the dream RIP to a legend.

Doctor, "Ken, do you smoke cigarettes" ? Ken "No doctor, only tires" !

I just drove that mountain yesterday and found this. The biggest difference between his car and my type-R is that his massive balls helped lower the center of gravity in the twisties and helped grip. Respect!!

I've tried to type several comments.... I can't find the words. Respectfully and solemnly, RIP Mr. Block. I didn't know driving could be art. I will never be the same. Thank you for your contribution to this world. Prayers for your family; assuredly you will be missed.

The words that came to mind with this vid years ago are now for the Legend himself. Incredible that we lost one of the greatest people in modern car culture. The best we've ever seen and still a family-men in between shredding rubber and putting smiles on faces everywhere in the world. Always in our hearts!

the sound of this engine should be in top on iTunes! he sings better than Drake!

Legend has it, there is still an echo on the mountain.

We'll miss you Ken ! I'm completely speechless. Prayers for your family. You'll always be a LEGEND to me and one of my favorite drivers of all time !

"Go fast and risk everythang" Rip King. You lived more of a life than most will ever live in 10 lifetimes.

Ken Block is the kind of guy that can leave for work at 8:15 and still make it to work by 8:00.

Me testing my new car after coming out of los Santos customs

Rest in peace Ken. Absolute monster driver known to men

Why i got goosebumps every time i hear that engine? Or everytime when i watch KenBlock videos? I miss this legend so much. You will always live forever in our souls.

Ken Block: "Wow! Pikes Peak looks pretty challenging." Pikes Peak Organisers: "Yeah it's a real demanding course." Ken Block: "Can be we set some obstacles on the course?"

"Do you draw?" Ken: Yes, on the asphalt

I have watched this 10 times already and I will continue to do so. Watching Ken drive the beast was pure artistry as he painted that road with rubber.

This man will forever go down in history to be one of the top 5 greatest rally car drivers ever,drift was more of a hobby for ken

Toyo Tires: Can you drive? Ken: A little.

Mechanic: "How much horsepower do you want?" Ken: *"All of it."*

Ruhe in Frieden Ken. Danke für die unzähligen Driftvideos, die Du uns geschenkt hast. Waren atemberaubende dabei, mitunter Pikes Peak mit dem Hoonicorn. Wenn ich nun eine etwas dunklere Wolke am Himmel sehe, dann weiss ich, dass Du da oben wieder Irre Stunts und Drifts abdrehst. Danke für die Zeit in der ich Dich Viral begleiten durfte. Dir liebe Lia und Deiner Familie, wünsche ich von Herzen viel Kraft in dieser schweren Zeit. In Gedanken bei euch, ein Fan aus der Schweiz. 🙏

Thanks Ken for all of the smiles and joy your talent brought to me.

My insurance rate just went up by watching this.

that car needs 1400hp to lug around that massive sack Ken block has. Must have a hole cutout in his racing seat to put them bad boys.

This guy is one of the best damn drivers I’ve ever seen in my entire life . RIP Ken Block. #LegendsNeverDie

Me and my Dad had been inspired by this guy. This guy is one of the best drifters in my opinion and i really like his drifting skills. This guy will always be in any persons heart. Rip Legend🕊️Ken Block🕊️

Ken Block: *puts hands on wheel* Every racing game ever: Write that down! Write that down!

RIP Ken, this one hurts and I didn't even know you personally. It's amazing how these videos you and your crew put together make us feel right there with you. The car culture will never forget what you did for the automotive world. Rest easy brother.

the sheer control.. precision.. timing.. focus.. this guy was seriously on a different level. RIP

From the first video I saw I already loved it like a new puppy but it hurts that this talented legent unfortunately passed away, RIP, a true legend he is.

BALLS!

That hip of car kissing the railing @ 7:40 is mind blowing

Epic day on the peak. Thanks for the memories.

This brought tears to my eyes.

3:50...No previous tire marks. Cool to see actual first passes in the final cut.

2:55 He’s just making sure the car doesn’t have the virus

R.I.P to an absolute legend. This one person is responsible for so much interest in current day motor sports. I mean the amount of people I see with Hoonigan gear at car shows and events is crazy.

Blessed to have been able to see him doing what he loved doing RIP Legend

Ken Block never fails to amaze me haha

Why do I have the feeling that he broke the 25 MPH speed limit?

this was the first video i ever saw of ken block. just got recommended to me again. rip to the legend 🕊️

Came back to see this after his passing this is why he is thr goat ✊️ RIP Ken😭

Who else would like to see Ken make an actual grip run up Pikes Peak in the hoonicorn? It probably doesn't have the aero to set a record time, but it would be cool to see how fast he could do it with 1400 hp.
