Someone's Recreated Climbkhana On GTA V, And It's Amazingly Accurate

YouTuber GTA Wise Guy has put together a shot-for-shot remake of Ken Block's Climbkhana in GTA V

03 Nov 2017

If you’re thinking this amazing GTA V Climbkhana remake must have been ridicously hard to pull off, you’d be right. Robin Williams - aka YouTuber GTA Wise Guy - told us that it took five days alone to recreate the car. He modified the ‘Drift Tampa’ using custom 3D modeling to sort the bonnet cutout, the turbochargers you can see spooling up, the flame-spitting exhaust and more.

What followed were several days of recording and editing using the Rockstar Editor, bringing the total time spent creating the video to around two weeks. Williams had originally started recreating Hoonicorn from scratch, before Rockstar released its own take on the car. “Rockstar beat me to it themselves and released the Drift Tampa which I was chuffed about until I found it couldn’t drift, let alone come anywhere near to what the Hoonicorn was capable of! But coupling the Drift Tampa with my own AWD Hoonicorn inspired handling mod was a tonne of fun to play around with.”

His efforts were worth it, as everything - from the buttock-clenching two wheels on the dirt on a cliff-edge moment to the helicopter donuts - is here. And as a bonus, we get to see Trevor steal the counterfeit Hoonicorn at the end…

Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

As a game dev, gamer and a GTA fanboy. I loved it. I wish he would do the stunts himself, not imitate Ken Block

Truth.

M9 , i cannot even do 10 % of what he do , so honestly , you should congrat him .

It’s not really skill, considering he used his Hoonicorn drift mod. Just need to get the right angel ofc, but this dude has done drifting before you know, if you look on his channel. You can see various different videos with him drifting on his own without imitating KB. I don’t really see why you’d wish he did his own thing in a video which was purely directed to be a remake of the run KB did. 🤔

The thing is though it’s a remake. Although that would be pretty interesting to see. But then it would be regarded as a stereotypical stunt video.

Good job.

When you know how arcade-ish car physics in GTA V are, and how grip is ridiculously high, that makes it even more impressive

Mods bro , mods …

But, did it take 100s of attempts?

Probably yes

The real climbkahana it took 5 attempts. Or something like that

“Someone” lol

Legitimate v2 twin turbo engine

All these people designing and rendering such cool cars in games, should be interviewed by car manufacturers and maybe asked for a possible future design ideas… such talents should not be going to waste.

This is gay

You are not sane

And you are 12

Ur not real

Honestly, I just fed up of seeing GTA V remakes everywhere on YouTube. I just don’t see the point of spending hours upon hours trying to recreate something to the best of you ability only for it to be only mildly similar. Obviously, this is great and I appreciate the hard work put into making it but tome it’s just pointless.
