Xbox Unleashes Ken Block and His Hoonicorn on the Goodwood Estate
To celebrate the global launch of Forza Horizon 4, Xbox invited Hoonigan Racing Division’s Ken Block, famous for the hugely successful Gymkhana series of videos, to unleash his 1,400 BHP 1965 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn V2 on the perfectly manicured grounds of the world-famous Goodwood Estate.
From drifting through the Estate’s pristine entrance in a screech of tires to terrorizing three classic British minis and donutting around a WWII Spitfire, nowhere is safe during Block’s high-octane countryside spin. He even tries to take Hafþór Björnsson (Hafþór is the World’s Strongest Man titleholder and the actor who plays The Mountain in Game of Thrones) for a spin, but the 6-feet 9-inch man mountain just couldn’t fit in to the car!
“It’s not every day I get to donut my Hoonicorn around a Spitfire fighter plane or tear up the sacred ground of Goodwood Estate, but for the launch of Forza Horizon 4 I got to do just that. I’m just sorry Hafþór couldn’t squeeze in for a ride!” Ken Block said.
Block and his Hoonicorn were just one part of a two-day Forza Horizon 4 launch festival at Goodwood, featuring a series of unique and thrilling experiences inspired by the game, including Country Lane Driving through Goodwood Estate and a Four Seasons Rally through bespoke tracks themed after Forza Horizon 4.
His 1965 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn is also one of more than 450 cars included in Forza Horizon 4 that players can collect, modify and drive. With new Drift Suspension upgrades and the ability to customize your driver with clothing and emotes, it’s never been easier to express your style. Check out the video below.
