not sure who you mean...whats he drive in over there?

Carl, Pikes Peak is one hell of a hill climb, I love that movie with the Peugeot...

I live next to that! woo! I always go and watch the hill climb during the summer. A buddy of mine races in it. He won the open wheel a while back - Brant Ford. One day I'm gonna race in it, if I can get enough money I'd even race the volvo up it! hahahaha I just need to put in a cage and the safety equiptment

ARI VENTANNA.... he made that amazing movie for that film festival thats famous called like. hill dance or somthing... him climbing pikes peak...

however they are going to start paving it and the famous hill climb will be GONE!!!!

and reece millen or w/e his name is is a drifter from i thought australia... he drives the redbull GTO... or at least did this season, i think he might be switching cars soon....

Are you kiddin'?? That would be a damn shame! :frown:

oh thats wrong! you cant pave the Peak...honestly some governments need to be shot.

Nup, was thinking of someone else. Wasnt he a Kiwi? (NZ?).
Drifting is like those car manufacturer demonstration teams...technically good but with absolutely no big balls courage...
If you dont need courage then its not racing ;)

Wow, yeah, sure enough. It was news to me, too:

That'll ruin the bike race and a fair piece of the marathon course as well.

Maybe I should organize a targa event in Colorado. :111: I'd do quite a bit to be able to legally drive the new pavement on Berthoud Pass at speed. Stage one would be Oh My God Road, then Berthoud for stage 2, then the canyon by Hot Sulphur Springs for day 3, and ideally end it up in Wyoming going over the Medicine Bow Range. The Newfoundland event charges about $5k Canadian for entry, and the open road ones seem to be anywhere from mid hundreds to 1 or $2k. Out of curiosity, how much would you pay in the U.S. for a closed, public roads, paved, say 5 day race? Assume a handful of classes of some kind (4 maybe), and a purse of about 5k for 1st, 3k for second, 1k for third. Figure at least some of the meals would be provided (at least a kickoff bash and a wrap-up awards feast).

That thing is TINY

Wow, that's one mighty roll cage. The car's so small and light the cage might make it top heavy!

That thing is so light and nimble it makes Jarrod's Lotus Elise look like a semi...

Ok maybe that was a slight exaggeration.
