    Re: Pikes Peak

    I wonder how fast a shifter kart can do pikes peak? All you have to add is a small wing on the fronat and back and some type of custom made dirt tire!
    My quote from the baja1000 thread.....
    Robby never rolls.......the earth just rotated due to how much horsepower he has.

    Anyone going to the Pikes Peak race this year? It is my first time going and I am pretty stoked! Should be fun as I am helping a buddy racing a quad there....

    Sorry, but watching Roger after watching Ari was like watching paint dry.

    I wish Rod Millen would bring the Toyota Tacoma back to Pikes Peak and take a shot at the record. That is an awesome car. I have an old VHS video with ESPN coverage of Pikes Peak when they installed a camera just above the front splitter of Rod's car. Just wish I had a way to copy it onto the computer.

    Those pictures of Garden of the Gods at the 20 second mark are just down the street from where I grew up.
    Last year we where at the right hander at the 5:40 mark in that video. I might be in the shot but can't find me.

    I have been going for years. Unfortunately in this economy I have to move to Albuquerque next weekend for work so I probably won't make it this year. The quads are cool because they start in packs and not single file.

    Last year after Rhys run they interviewed him on the radio. He said the only reason his dad was not there was because of prior commitments. He also said his dad is trying to come back this year in the Celica. Rhys then said something like "If I could only get him to give me the Tacoma to make a run". The Celica and the Tacoma are both amazing to watch. Rod is still not listed as a competitor and Rhys is listed in a 2wheel drive class so it might not be happening.
