HOONING Travis Pastrana's 862bhp Subaru Family Huckster

"Err on the side of aggressive..." This is the Travis Pastrana life motto. Y'see, Travis Pastrana isn't your typical driving instructor. And his 1983 Subaru GL wagon isn't your typical driving instructor's car. The 'Family Huckster' is powered by an 862bhp flat-four boxer engine. It gets active aero, a six-speed sequential box and runs 4 bar of boost. It doesn't come with dual control pedals.

Enter TG's Jethro Bovingdon. Jethro knows a thing or two about skids, but can he pull off a reverse entry drift with the pressure of Travis in the passenger seat? "Just turn left to go right..." Sounds easy, right?

This was awesome RIP KB, and Gymkhana is such a car dude thing. I actually yelled out loud when he hit the reverse entry

[TheMancalorian]

There is nobody better to take on the Hoonigan mantle, to continue the Gymkhana events than Travis Pastrana.
I love this car it's such a unique build on an old school motor, I do love my Scoobies.

[GNARGNAR]

I can't imagine there have been too many people that have been able to drive this car other than Travis. Super cool!

[NWSanta]

RIP KB, but the smile on his face is just priceless the whole time!!! Well delivered Travis! I want to see a Hoonicorn VS Pastrana's wagon someday!

I was fortunate, and lucky enough to accidentally get to sit and watch the Dallas Supercross race right next to Travis Pastrana back in 2001 or 2002. I was already seated when he came in and sit next my gf and me. He was very nice and friendly, I tried not to bother him because I know he just wanted to watch the race like the rest of us. He did speak and signed a couple things for me. Not long after, Jeff Emig walked in and stood next to our row of seats to watch the race for a short bit too. Emig was out with both his arms broken and in cast at the time.

Driving lessons from Travis or Ken (RIP ❤️) is a dream! Even Lia has mad skills!

[CarOnlineTV]

[RRobbin]

The performance of this machine is impressive 🔥🔥

[dallassnyder]

i love travis' eyes in his videos he looks just as frightened as the passenger

[budman]

The was so SICK! Getting to drive this car with TP sitting shotgun and not only giving instructions but hyping u up would be the greatest experience of all time. Absolutely amazing in every way. Loved it

[AngryWalter]

My favorite Jethro car video is when he drove the 458aperta during a storm, with open roof.

[TopGear]

Which of Travis' moves do you want a lesson in?

[joeym]

That was Awesome!!! Travis is such a Madman behind the wheel or anything else he’s doing!!! But it’s cool that can chill down to teach somebody how to do those things!!!! I love seeing him do Gymkhana now but I Really Miss And Still Always Think Of The OG, The Wheel Man, The Legendary Ken Block!!! I’m Sure He’s Hooning On Streets Of Gold Now!!! And Seeing His Daughter Falling Right In Place Is So Amazing!!!

As TOP GEAR program has been frozen is this channel staying alive is it will be a sad thing to see it go.

[cdub]

its always a blast watching a legend throw a car around like that, I feel like Ken just knew how to put it in words better.

[AllNamesWereAlreadyTaken]

Travis is a Legend and I love everthing about this car, the aero, the sound, the design and its a subaru <3

[LOTUSELISER]

This was AWESOME! Fantastic job, Jethro!! Travis seems like such a fun dude. Great job TG!

[Vdsanti]

What a dream ride with Travis in this beast 💯

[EyesOfByes]

That voice over dubbing during the intro was ALMOST flawless
