Collaborating with fellow Monster athlete Vaughn Gittin Jr.’s tuning company RTR, Hoonicorn boasts a 410 cu-in Roush Yates V-8 producing 845 HP, good for 720 lb.-ft. of tire-melting torque, mated to a custom Sadev all-wheel drive system and a manual gearbox.

The tires, interestingly, are the same Pirelli P Zero Trofeo Rs used on the new Camaro Z/28, only featuring a “custom Ken Block compound.” RTR designed the wide-body package along with Block and his Hoonigan crew, and ASD Motorsports were responsible for the various components, including roll cage and tubular chassis.
