- Plaster City, CA has long been the benchmark for desert truck testing in the US. It’s home to some of the gnarliest whoops this side of the border. On this episode of Whoopocalypse Ken Block and co-driver Alex Gelsomino head to the famed site to get some wide open high speed testing under their belt, ahead of the Baja 1000. To top it off, we wrapped Team mate Jax Redline’s helicopter in the same “It’s A Living” livery as the truck, and VFX wizard Ash Thorp even drops in for a ride along.

The suspension on that truck is insane.
Putting the video in 0.25 playback speed when Zac is doing his "Baja update" will never get old. 😂😂😂😂😂
I can confirm that it does, indeed, never get old! Hahaha! Thank you for posting this!
How awesome it to just watch the suspension on these units. Just wow!
Ash : "A very angry Marshmallow!"
That helicopter 🚁 is sick!!
Today's goal...jumpin😆👍🏻
Oh shit Ken is going through puberty again 🤣
Wtf? This girl tryin to sell her only fan’s or something in kens video 😂😂
@@kentbeitel9966 ah it’s ok I reported it as spam.
Ash is a beast with his livery skills . He needs to make them from now on. 👍👍
Shoutout the the camera guys out there getting baked in the bad way. Baja is gonna be the sickest content on the internet.
Just watched this for the first time... Man I miss this dude 😢 thanks KB for everything you did, you absolute LEGEND!
Alex is an awesome co-driver and his patience when it comes to teaching along with his passion for the sport has probably helped to create a lot of new rally/offroad racing fans. It's been great watching him and Ken teaching Zac the ropes of pace notes, the learning process, etc. when it comes to learning these sports.
Please keep Alex involved!
I could watch slowmo of suspension travel for hours!
Yeah for sure.
Been feeling itchy without Zac's Baja UPDATE! YEEAAAHHH!!!! ... Oh, Hey Ken! 👋🏽
Growing up in Ensenada skipping school to watch these trucks fly around since the late 90s it’s crazy how much the internals change but the trucks look just as cool
Daaaaaaamn now that's a real render!!! Love the detail on every little piece!!!
RIP man ..... he had an awesome run in the game of life
That was AWESOME to watch!!! Unbelievable how it absorbs those jumps👍
This is exciting watching Them go through the process of learning the Trophy truck and this style of driving. Can't wait to see them compete!
The control Ken has over the vehicle ( any vehicle actually ... ) it is simply *A*M*A*Z*I*N*G* !
At this point, Ken’s raced everything but trains, planes, and boat. It’s official…….Ken Block’s a legend.
Brother That suspension set up is on point straight dailed in.
My favorite CZcams video I’ve watched in 6 months
This is fracking INSANE! Love it
I've only gotten to see one of these trucks in person once and it's wild how much travel they have. So cool
Been waiting for this!!
The way that trophy truck eats up that terrain is amazing. That is the most capable high speed off terrain kind of vehicle.
VERY interested to see if his codriver can keep up on dem notes for the amount of time that they will be in this thing. Good luck, and see you boys in Baja, hopefully in our rear mirror!
Agreed! That is a lot of notes to go through
Those notes will be their demise. They need to learn the GPS and use LeadNav. There will be no way to read those notes at night, if Ken’s section runs at night; or the truck has issues that forces him to drive at night.
Or they could do like they do in the rally car, and install some little LED map lights. Lots of night stages in rally
Other thing, surely once you've prerun the course written the notes the features of the "road" will have changed. With lots of other competitor running hard burms and dips etc will have changed. Rocks and other smallish obstacles will have moved as the sand and dirt gets torn up. I'd have thought for Baja that kind of notes system can work but would be less reliable than for stage rally as the variables seem much higher as an event goes on 🤔
Trucks run digital screens with mapped out notes
It was sick to see ash get a ride along the man is a MASSIVE inspiration for me the man is a bad ass and deserves it
This is so fun to watch. Imagine how fun would it be to actually drive it 😜
Ken literally has the best job in the world! Amazing truck
This is badass. Good work boys, can't wait to get down to Mexico!!!!
Dude I love plaster city. Always hit that spot on the quad
This is what i call "Action"
Incredible engineering
I hope you guys bring that thing to KOH this year 🤘🏼
Love Plaster city, just an hour away from me. Good luck in Baja!!!
Awesome I can't wait for the 1000!!!
Bruh… Ken and Alex are going to SLAY in the Baja 1000!!!
Beautiful truck, Traxxas needs to sell a UDR with this livery. Ken Block and Alex G are such badasses in the racing world.
Bajaaaaaaa Update!!!!
The Crazy Ken íts back!!!
That looks like soo much fun.
With both the hoonicorn and the greatest invention u designed the hoonitruck
Good job!.
Ken block for lyf🔥🔥♥️♥️
To who ever is reading this comment
You are awesome 💥
My goal is to hit 27k any help would be epic🤘
3:03 *Love Donut Media* 😛😉
I realized I’m watching this while drinking a Monster, how fitting.
if there is anything that I love more than drifting and rally its the baja 1K I was there when I was smol and the truck the sound it was awesome the smell there.
god I gotta go back there on day...
Good video ken👍
Ken is the only person I would ever trust to ride along with at 125 mph !!
Trust me, there are much better TT drivers out there. Gordon, Letner, Menzies, McMillin, Ampudia, Baldwin, Lofton, Herbst, Stewart…….. this list is long.
That truck lands like hot butter
Looks totally indestructible (till you hit a rock :') )
The absolute punishment trophy trucks take us UNREAL!!!
Ash is the man, Ken is the man, Alex the man, rub a dub dub, three men hit a jump? 🤘🔥😎🔥🤘
It is the car which I want to get into even once👍👍
Love you Ken.
always a smile
Best sport there is!
I want to see Alex and Ken practice a tire change in a really sandy spot.
Ken rocks!
That cheeky bar turn at 5:26 is so slick.
Ha! Yes, I was going to comment on that, too. (And Thanks for the time tag.)
Your the boss Ken...🤯
7:58 - now that's a peformance vehicle!!!!
RIP Legend ❤
Thx Ken.
ominique
I was dying for a Baja update
Man, it must be exhilarating to jump over those whoops!
#WhoopocalypseNow
trophy trucks are so rad
Holy smokes that suspension
Baja trucks are soo epic1
I'm here play Forza Horizon 5 on my couch, and Ken playing in Real Life.
Wait, Horizon 5 launch is tomorrow, right? 🤔
I love the way he did the intro so perfect And I have to ask some not sure are you guys going to be in the Baja 1000 2021 are you going to be in the X games on TV I would love to know
Ustedes ganarán 🤙 la baja 1000 bro. 💪 I Will see You in la Purísima
what a mental vid name!!!!!!!!! i fell off my chair
I was expecting for the BAAAJAAA UPDATE!!!!
I was at Plaster City last week. This is what you hope to find when you get there. I only saw 1 race UTV. #1945.
As someone who has coridden in Baja before those notes are going to be very tough to keep up with, gps and LeadNav is the way to go
Good morning Guys
SIC🏆
bro ash is fucking crazy, you guys are awesome !
Bucket list # 30 go sho
Can anyone tell me who is making Ken and Hoonigan's beats/music they use for all of their content? The instrumental beat tracks are just so insanely sick.
I been waiting to see Ken racing Baja in a Trophy truck for like 12-13 years since a first saw him and that time Travis di it, hope to meet him down here in Baja
How cool would it be to see a Recoil 5, Ken vs. BJ Baldwin? Would be dope.
Let's see if the notes can work after prerunning.. it should help out in some way ..but race track terrain changes quickly at baja. Should be interesting to see interview after baja 1000 how useful are the notes. ( overall they should help)
A Gymkahana with this monster of a truck would be awesome
Far out 🤙
You should do another one in white and name it the Angry Marshmellow.
Screw matching outfits..I want a matching helicopter!!
new hooligan range featuring a angry marshmallow
Given that Baja is in Mexico and a certain new videogame that heavily features Ken is in Mexico it would be cool to see this truck In the game. I love the livery and the truck.
Forza 5 is epic.
Hoonicopter? Also, would love to see a rendering of it in the livery!
I’m a grippy boi! And this off roading looks so much fun! There is no line to tech or botched sessions just open desert at your disposal! 🔥🔥
More like Hoon-pocalypse lol 🤣👌
This vs that, the Redlines R44 vs merchvan
Bad 🤘🏻
An angry marshmallow. That's funny.
I think they are going to need a new truck after that.. It's amazing the things engineers are able to do these days. Seriously, that thing took some serious abuse and survived. Amazing
🔥🔥
Suspension!!!!!
Now you guys just need to get a private jet and wrap it, lol.
I just got done playing Mx vs ATV untamed and got curious about these things irl
BAJA UPDATE!!!!
