Blake Fuller and his team took a production Tesla Model S to the 2016 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb to set a new world record. In the end they shattered the previous Production Electric Vehicle record by over a minute, setting a new world record of 11:48. In this production class where modifications are limited, a set of Toyo Proxes R888s delivered the added grip and control needed for this record setting run. This is the mountain from Fuller’s point of view.

Back when you saw Ken Block visit Audi headquarters in Ingolstadt to kick off their all- new partnership, what we couldn’t show you were the very first sketches for this: the Audi S1 Hoonitron. AKA a car built in the legendary halls of Audi Sport, for the sole purpose of being the world’s first all-electric Gymkhana car. From mind boggling wheel speeds to Group B inspired bodywork, the Hoonitron is unlike anything we’ve ever been around - so we dive into all of its wild and tech-heavy details.

I finally get to put my new all-electric Audi e-tron SUV to the test at Swing Arm City! Swing Arm city is one of my favorite spots to hit, some of you may remember it from my off-road Gymkhana film dubbed Terrakhana. It will be interesting to see how the e-tron handles the wild incline of Knife’s Edge amongst other awesome features this place has to offer. Is 400ft lbs enough to party in an all-electric SUV? Hit play and find out, enjoy!

My Electric Car Fleet is growing! I needed something for all the awesome driving you can do around Utah, and with 490 foot-pounds of torque the e-tron SUV can get down. Snow slaying? No problem. Huck it in some dirt? Yep, it can do that too. Cruise downtown Park City to see some legendary artwork from Banksy? Most definitely. I’ve put my own personal touch on the car of course with some high performance wheels and tires, but it was my wife’s idea to put on the charcuterie board under the spare. No, really!

Today I’m aiming to break the WORLD RECORD lap-time for an all-electric production car with a snowboard roof pod around Laguna Seca, haha! All jokes aside, I’m taking my brand new Audi RS e-tron GT (that I daily drive) for some lap-time testing. For science…? Yeah, for science. It’s amazing how capable this car is straight off the production line, so let’s put it to the test at one of the most prestigious race tracks in the world. More reasons to drive this car, more better. Enjoy episode 4 of 6 dedicated to my Audi RS e-tron GT daily driver project!

I can’t have a 637hp all-electric Audi RS e-tron GT for a daily driver and NOT find out if it can slide, right?? Let’s find out if the brand new e-tron GT can handle some of the things that I love to do most in cars: donuts, figure 8s and BIG slides! It wears the RS badge for a reason, so it’s safe to say I had a solid day of tire slaying. EV power is no joke, the e-tron is not nice to tires which is just another reason why I love it.

The future of Gymkhana has arrived! Introducing my brand new Audi S1 e-tron quattro Hoonitron! Brian and I take a quick trip to Audi’s Design Center in Ingolstadt, Germany to see my 1 of 1 Gymkhana Prototype. It's wild that Audi was able to condense a one year build process from the drawing boards to reality in only four weeks! The all-electric Hoonitron is essentially a fully modernized version of one of my favorite race cars, the legendary Group B Audi Sport Quattro S1 E2, so I'm extremely excited for this. All that's left now is to patiently wait for my opportunity to Hoon it.

The all-new and all-electric Ford Fiesta ERX is a tire slaying machine like I’ve never experienced before. Built by STARD Austria for the FIA’s new World Rallycross Project E race series - it’s puts down an impressive 600 horsepower and more than 800 ft. lbs. of instant torque at the drop of a single pedal. (no clutch, and no shifting!) Check it out as I meet the team for my very first drive and tire-slaying-hoonage session in Höljes Sweden. And if you needed a second opinion of how rad the acceleration and speed is in the worlds first production based electric rallycross car, check out Neil Cole’s reaction during a wild ride along!

We are back at the Zell am See frozen lake in Austria for another rad day of driving race cars. I get the pleasure of shredding the Dakar Stage Winning Audi RS Q e-tron race car, on ice… I love my job! Mattias Ekström, the driver who piloted Audi race car to the Dakar Stage win, is riding shotgun with me for a quick crash course on getting up to speed in a very new and very complex electric race car.

Did we just say 'rear-wheel-drive Taycan'? You're damn right we did. Because here we find Chris Harris attempting to set a world record for the longest drift in an electric vehicle, and Porsche have lent Harris a Taycan devoid of its front drive shafts especially for the challenge. But can he get his crossed-up hands on the world record? Let's find out.
