    That looks like it would be a fun race to run whatever u got. Its funny to watch how some people look like they are on a sunday drive. I guess they just want to be able to say they did it.

    Re: Pikes Peak Practice video

    Having watched the race on tv for several years, I decided I would take a spirited drive to the top when I lived in Colorado Springs. The road is about half as wide in person as it looks on video. The picnic ground straight where Millen hit 140 or whatever isn't really even straight, just a long, slow left that kinda straightens out. I hit about 50 and felt like I was flying. And watching the semis in person is crazy. You can literally feel the ground shake as they are approaching. Nothing like seeing a tandem axle pitch it out and powerslide around a 180.

    The Protruck guys sure slammed their trucks to the ground didn't they?

    A big motor in a 1600 car works... a turbo with NO2 would work better...
