Corners!! Crikey. Would make a change from going in a straight line. [:)]
Might have to invest in a ticket me thinks. [;)]
Untimed runs puts the emphasis on making a nice noise and maybe leaving some black lines.

Can anyone tell me how this climb compares to <u>THE</u> hill climb - Pikes Peak? Distance, Time, Speed, Alt. difference, Abs. altitude etc...

[Wedge content:
As you probably know ex Wedge rally driver Per Eklund currently holds one of the class records up the Peak:
The record time of 11:21.58 in the Pikes Peak Open category.]
