We've heard Ken Block can drift just about anything from a new Ford Fiesta ST to an old Sierra wagon, but we never thought he'd want to do his Gymkhana dance in a Ford Raptor with tracks!
We ain't foolin' around folks, Block's new project is a Raptor pickup truck fitted with a set of snow tracks. The Long Beach-born driver has yet to reveal any info about the insane Ford F-150 RaptorTrax, which he unveiled minutes ago on Twitter, or its purpose, but we assume he's not going to hoon it on the Nurburgring track.
Details should surface soon enough and We're probably in for a crazy video with the man and his truck later this year, so make sure you stick around for an update.
While we’re here wondering what’s under the hood of this beast, we were also asking ourselves what other vehicles have been in the drifter’s hands. Back in 2005, Block along with his DC Shoes associates participated in the Gumball 3000 Rally, where they sent out three modified 2004 Subaru WRX STi’s. Good, so there’s the Subaru.
Other than that, it was mainly Ford cars for this fellow. To be more precise, he has been driving the American carmaker’s vehicles at various events since 2010, when he joined up with the company and begun his WRC career driving both a Ford Fiesta and Focus RS WRC.
When he’s not driving one of the super-customized off-road vehicles, Block still makes tonnes of cash out of sports endorsements. Block is also one of the co-founders of DC Shoes, but he got out of it and now focuses on Hoonigan Industries, an apparel brand for auto enthusiasts.
Anyway, like we were saying earlier, this could turn out as one of the creaziest vehicles Ken Block drove ever. So we can't wait for it to be officially unveiled.
