The Hoonigans and KMC take on Florida in the wildest Gymkhana Ever

December 6, 2022

Pure vehicular insanity is the most accurate way to describe Gymkhana 2022, the latest film in Hoonigan’s award-winning Gymkhana series. Travis Pastrana is back in a Subaru after his debut performance in the film franchise, which his buddy and rally racing rival Ken Block created, smashed all previous viral records. Set across the Florida Keys, Fort Lauderdale, and parts of the Everglades, Gymkhana 2022 is on a level of its own with tricks ranging from 160+mph jumps, to tandem donuts with a helicopter, and a Monster Truck donut that risked totaling both vehicle and driver. Not to mention Pastrana’s newfound proximity moments and massive BASE jump “mishap.” It’s set to be the wildest film yet in the series.

Gymkhana 2022 is the wildest film I have done on four wheels. Period,” said Travis Pastrana, Subaru rally driver and action sports legend. “I never thought I’d race a fighter jet, do donuts around a Monster Truck doing nose wheelies, skim 100 feet across a six-foot-deep pond, or tandem slide with a helicopter. Definitely not in the same video. But here we are, with Gymkhana 2022!

The machine built to take Pastrana’s wild driving is dubbed “The Family Huckster,” the most extreme Subaru GL Wagon ever imagined. Starting life as a humble 1983 Subaru GL wagon, the car is now a carbon-clad space-frame with an 865-horsepower Subaru Boxer engine, active aero, and long-travel rally suspension. The all- wheel-drive monster also features a functional carbon-fiber roof rack that directs air to the rear-mounted radiator, one of a few homages to US Ski Team Subaru GL wagons of the 80s.

THE WHEELS

Here at KMC, we are no strangers to high-horsepower Subarus and the world of rally racing. We took our world-class R&D and extensive off-road knowledge to build a set of wheels that not only handle the abuse of Gymkhana but complement the Family Huckster with the industry-leading design and styling it deserves. To give the Family Huckster its era-appropriate allure, we based the design on the OEM wheels found on 80’s Subaru models. We even sourced the same iconic gold finish used on Subaru’s World Rally Championship-winning race cars. The result is a lightweight, yet rigid, forged wheel built for abuse and durability.
