Hoonigan Unleashes New Rally Speedrun Championship Series
If you’ve been craving that old-school Hoonigan chaos, then buckle up—because Hoonigan is officially back, and they’re not playing around. The all-new original motorsport series Rally Speedrun Championship presented by KMC Wheels launches today, and as you will see, it throws traditional rally playbooks into the shredder, delivering a full-throttle, dirt-slinging competition where the only rule is: send it.
This six-part series is pure motorsports mayhem, combining raw rally stage action with time trial intensity. Think wild custom builds, legendary drivers, and a purpose-built rally course that’s as brutal as it is beautiful. The result? A motorsport series that feels like Gymkhana meets Top Gear… if both were dosed with nitrous.
A Track Built to Break the Bold
This isn’t just any rally course—it’s a custom creation from rally expert Wyatt Knox, designed with the Hoonigan team to separate the skilled from the scared. The 1.3-mile stage features 11 gnarly corners, blind crests, two jumps, and terrain that wants to chew up drivers and spit out broken dreams.
“Hoonigan came to me, true to form, with a wild idea: build a rally course from scratch that would push world-class drivers and machines to their limits,” said Wyatt Knox.
“That’s exactly what we did. With the Hoonigan crew’s creative energy, we carved a flowing, high-risk course through the rolling hills—jumps, deep sand, sharp elevation, and even a donut as a tribute to the Gymkhana films. It’s built to reward the smart, punish the reckless, and expose every weakness.”
Rally fans, eat your heart out—this beast of a track is rally car carnage at its finest.
Big Names. Bad Machines. No Mercy.
Let’s talk competitors. This isn’t your average racing lineup—this is a mix of motorsport’s wildest minds:
- Jeff Zwart, the eight-time Pikes Peak legend, bringing 450hp of rear-engine fury in a Porsche GT3 Cup car.
- Faruk Kugay, Formula Drift veteran, sliding his 1980 Toyota Corolla with full 10/10 aggression.
- Patrick Gruszka arrives in a long-travel Mitsubishi Mirage Proto made for off-road punishment.
- Alastair Scully handles business in a WRC2-spec Hyundai i20, precision meets pace.
- And Blake Wilkey? He’s got the 660hp trophy truck “JAWS”, a desert-ready beast that barely fits on the course.
This mix of machines isn’t just diverse—it’s damn near illegal. And yes, Season 2 promises even more savage hardware, including WRC replicas and a snarling, high-revving CrossKart that screams “send it.”
High-Tech Thrills: Biometric Data, Telemetry & Full-Send Footage
This series doesn’t just look fast—it feels fast. With real-time telemetry and even biometric data like heart rate tracking, viewers can literally see the pressure build as these drivers flirt with disaster at high speed.
Each episode is loaded with in-car chaos, big slides, and bigger saves, all hosted by rally expert Wyatt Knox alongside Micah Diaz and Gary King Jr., bringing the perfect blend of hype and insight. Whether you’re here for driving skill or the spectacle, this crew breaks it down in a way that hits.
“In rally, they say ‘to finish first, first you must finish’—this track lives and breathes that ethos. It’s a must-see series,” adds Knox.
Hoonigan’s Rally Roots Roar Back to Life
At its core, the Rally Speedrun Championship is pure Hoonigan—unfiltered, unapologetic, and absolutely addictive. It’s about pushing drivers to the brink, building the wildest machines, and capturing it all with that signature Hoonigan swagger.
Episode One drops today on the Hoonigan YouTube channel, with new episodes continuing to light up your screen in the weeks ahead. Presented by KMC Wheels, this is motorsport for the modern man: gritty, fast, and ready to get sideways.
