Yeah, with a lot of elevation changes. I think those old school tracks are good to test hillclimb cars...

The electric TMG p002 making a return with Rod Millen behind the wheel... 1200nm of torque! Wow. |

I find it funny that they call it a T16. Surely the 405 was named so due to it being a turbo 16valve?? if not.. what else?

Loeb's ride for Pikes Peak this year looks awesome, but I still think Rhys will take the win this year.

If it was on talent alone, Loeb has 20 seconds in the bag already, Millen is not a patch talent wise sorry mate!

I would agree that Loeb has more talent, but experience on Pikes Peak counts for a lot, and Rhys has that in droves. With more power and torque than the Pug, plus Rhys' experience, I think Loeb will have a tough time matching the time Rhys does.

I keep reading that Tajima is entering his Toyota 86 into the event.
But the car is not listed on the entry list. Any ideas what is happening with the car? |

I believe the Rhys millen car is RWD only so i doubt that.. The peggy is a works team with a legend at the wheel. it does 0-200 silly fast with 4.9 sec.
And the guy should have done the homework. He usually does.. So he will remember the corners but not perfect. If Monster had made a new all out unlimited car he could have challenged. So would Dallenbach in the openwheeler. If it had been in one piece. |

That Norma is going to be quick. And if its actually made for unlimited. (turboed etc) it will be a serious contender. Im cheering for that one.

So this thing is testing right now, for the Pikes Peak event this year. Assuming it doesn't actually break down like it does every year, it could challenge Loeb for the overall:

I'm seriously excited about this event this year; so many great vehicles taking part, especially in the Unlimited Class.

People were so worried about the change over time into a paved road, but I think it has revitalized the event.
