LEGO Speed Champions is bringing one of the most iconic modern drift cars to brick form with the release of Ken Block’s ’65 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn V1. Scheduled to launch June 1, 2026, the 345-piece set recreates the instantly recognizable all-wheel-drive Mustang built by HOONIGAN and featured in Ken Block’s Gymkhana SEVEN film.

Designed for builders ages 9 and up, the set captures several of the Hoonicorn’s signature details, including the exposed velocity stacks protruding through the hood, custom wheels, aggressive body styling, and Block’s iconic number 43 graphics. The kit also includes a Ken Block minifigure equipped with a Hoonicorn hat, branded jacket, and alternate racing helmet.

The Hoonicorn remains one of the most recognizable custom Mustangs ever built, blending vintage muscle car styling with extreme drift performance. LEGO’s Speed Champions version continues the brand’s growing lineup of enthusiast-focused automotive replicas, giving collectors and younger builders the opportunity to display a scaled-down version of the legendary machine.

Once assembled, the completed model measures over 1.5 inches high, 6.5 inches long, and 3 inches wide, making it ideal for display on a desk, shelf, or collector’s showcase.

The LEGO Speed Champions Ken Block ’65 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn V1 carries an MSRP of $29.99 USD and will be available beginning June 1, 2026.

Yokohama Tire is heading back to the Broadmoor Pikes Peak International Hill Climb with more than 20 sponsored drivers competing on ADVAN tires across multiple divisions.

The 104th running of the legendary “Race to the Clouds” takes place June 21 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Yokohama will also return as the exclusive tire supplier for the Pikes Peak GT4 Trophy by Yokohama for the ninth consecutive year, with Porsche, BMW, and Toyota entries running on ADVAN A052 tires.

“We’re excited to return with another exceptionally strong lineup for this year’s hill climb,” said Patricia Wall, Yokohama’s senior manager of motorsports. “After last year’s weather-shortened race, our Team Yokohama drivers are eager to return and compete on the full-length legendary mountain course.”

Laura Hayes, who holds the Pikes Peak record for “Fastest Woman,” returns to the GT4 field in a Toyota Supra GT4 EVO2. Robin Shute also returns as one of Yokohama’s headline drivers, competing in the Unlimited Division’s Super Unlimited Class with his self-designed 2026 Sendycar on ADVAN A005 tires.

Shute has already helped Yokohama earn two overall “King of the Mountain” titles on ADVAN tires. For 2026, his Sendycar will run a special ADVAN A005 hill climb compound developed by Yokohama specifically for Pikes Peak, with the goal of helping Shute secure his fifth overall King of the Mountain title.

Other Team Yokohama drivers include Robb Holland in a Kellymoss Racing Porsche GT4R, Dai Yoshihara in an Acura Integra Type-S, Cole Powelson in a 2025 Stryker Rogue Maverick, rookie Phillip McGilton in a Campbell Enterprises Ultra4 car, Danny Aitken in a 2001 Reynard Indy Car, and JT Taylor in a 1967 Dodge Coronet R/T.

Taylor will also appear with Warrior Built and Yokohama at a special event at nearby Fort Carson on June 17 before signing autographs at Yokohama’s booth during Fan Fest on June 19 in downtown Colorado Springs. Yokohama Tire is a corporate partner of Warrior Built, a nonprofit organization focused on supporting combat veterans and wounded service members through vocational and recreational therapy.

Yokohama will also host an activation during the Downtown Colorado Springs Fan Fest, featuring Team Yokohama athlete autograph sessions, race car displays, giveaways, and more.

The 2026 Broadmoor Pikes Peak International Hill Climb will be broadcast in its entirety on June 21 through the RACER Network cable channel and RACER+ streaming app.

It’s not often that an automaker caters directly to the enthusiast community in these days of seemingly endless SUV announcements, but when it does happen, it’s worth paying attention.

Case in point: Toyota’s recent reveal of the 2026 GRMN Corolla, which the company describes as “the ultimate in GR Corolla performance.” The car was developed at the Nürburgring, a track where Toyota Master Driver, former company CEO, and current Chairman Akio Toyoda, also known as Morizo, began his driving career.

The GRMN name refers to Meister of Nürburgring. If a car bears that name, Toyota says “it must be able to run the Nürburgring properly.”

Differences that separate the GRMN from the regular GR Corolla include refined aerodynamics. The GRMN features unique aero components including a hood duct, fender ducts, front side spoilers, and a rear wing developed from racing. These parts were tested on a hydrogen-powered GR Corolla competing in Japan’s Super Taikyu Series.

The GRMN also receives unique suspension hardware, including front and rear monotube shock absorbers designed to improve inner-wheel traction and high-speed cornering performance. Its steering has also been adjusted to improve cornering under high g-forces. The car rides on Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 summer tires.

Output from the 1.6-liter turbocharged three-cylinder engine remains at 300 horsepower, just like the regular GR Corolla, but the GRMN produces more torque at 302 lb-ft compared to 295 lb-ft. The extra torque arrives between 4,000 and 6,400 rpm, helping the car accelerate harder out of corners, according to Toyota.

The GRMN also receives several cabin tweaks, including a serial number plate, brushed metal finish on the instrument panel and front pillar, Morizo signature on the dash panel, and unique bucket seats.

The 2026 GRMN Corolla will be built at Toyota’s Motomachi plant in Japan. Pricing, unit allocations, and on-sale timing have not yet been announced, but Toyota says the car will be aimed primarily at North America, Japan, and Australia. Given that it’s a 2026 model, more details should be available soon.
