Pikes Peak Video Hill Climb - Outstanding.

http://www.ivga.com/sprintcarmod/Pikes%20Peak%20Video/PikesPeak.mpg This is a great video that was filmed in 1990. Its Pikes Peak Hill Climb and it will give you some appreciation for that event and the skill of there drivers. I wonder why a video game was never made of this. Enjoy. Don Wilshe

There's a good quality version of that on "The world's greatest rally cars" dvd. GT2 did a bit of the hill climb track, but it lacked the insane drops outside the turns. John

climb dance is magic... the whistle and pop, then the slithering of gravel as he slides closer and closer to the massive drops, and then some more whistle and pop out... :) Charlie

Amazing stuff. These guys have to have major cajones. They must be repeating to themselves over and over through the whole run "Stay to the inside, stay to the inside" ;-) Rallisport Challenge 2 (XBox) has some hillclimb tracks, which are quite fun, but not Pike's Peak unfortunately. -- __________________________________ Todd Walker __________________________________

Very cool! I'd love to see (and hear) some footage of the Suzuki Escudo but this Peugeot looks quite similar. - F50 GT Don Wilshe wrote: > This is a great video that was filmed in 1990.

He's not dead, he lives in southern France and has just been elected to the european parliament on the right party here.

And Ari competed in the 2004 Dakar rally, for the Nissan factory team if I'm not mistaken... In fact I believe he'll also do the 2005 Dakar this January! "Txl" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I know he is not dead I've met the guy in Quebec, Canada once at a ice racing event. EL "Txl" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
