• July 24, 2009 The Race to the Clouds

    03:14am by Cheechoo (Cars)

    Just wanted to mention that the Pike’s Peak International Hill Climb was run earlier this week, with nobody besting Nobuhiro Tajima’s 2007 record in the unlimited class. A great race in Colorado, the “Race to the Clouds” is a must see for any Colorado Springs/Denver resident.

    It also reminded me of the awesome 1990 film short “Climb Dance”. Check out the stuff below: Climb Dance, this year’s Ford Fiesta, and Tajima’s Suzuki Escudo record holder.

    dam that looks like fun, but also looks pretty dangerous. at one point in the video it had an overhead view which looked like quite a drop if u flew over the side.

    what was the glitch dan? other than it raped everything in acceleration and top speed. my technique was to bounce off of the walls at full throttle to take the win :)

    Nah…if you played around with the configuration and downforces, the escudo would stand up on its rear tires and hit top speeds around 600+ MPH.
