I,ve been there a couple of times ( family live there ). Brave people, it's a hell of a drop to the bottom.

That looks a mean machine indeed, but once you're off the tarmac I can't help thinking less power and more wheel drive would be better.
Would love to go and watch the racing first hand
Is it likely to be televised anywhere - on the web maybe?

Reposted from another thread......
If you are anywhere remotely close to Pikes Peak, you have to drive it....it is an amazing , scary peice of road...about 12,000 ft you pass the tree
line...the trees suddenly just don't exist anymore and it's all rocky and dusty and you find yourself looking down at the
clouds.....awesome road... and that's just dawdling along in a rental car.......
