This may be one reason I have yet to compete in a hillclimb event.

Yeah when I watched the video again it appears the driver may have reacted to the guy taking pictures.

Yeah when I watched the video again it appears the driver may have reacted to the guy taking pictures. Good call... Sure looks like he lifted and turned a bit to move away from the guy in the blue shit. He was really cooking around that corner, like 4th gear. Pikes Peak, now that it's totally paved, is fast driving everywhere. But unlike most tracks, where you could train yourself for that kind of speed, it will throw different weather at you on the way up. Super tough to do at 8 or 9 tenths! |
