The look in Ken's eyes when he drove the Etron vision GT shows how much of a handlful that car is. He had a look of concern that I've never seen before and he was just driving fast on a track, not even sliding sideways. He looked like a person handling a deadly venomous snake who recognizes this will take his full concentration to not become a disaster.

These things have less of a torque curve than they have a modifiable torque program.

Then they signed Ken so maybe they'll compromise for a hybrid WRC car or he might even go into DTM or some other form of GT racing. The next steps shall be interesting...

These Hoonigan guys are so passionate and loving of automobiles and their history, it shines through in how much fun they have with each other doing this kind of insane stuff. Super entertaining 👏
