I found this You-Tube video today. I know it's not a Mustang, but any car doing the Pike Peak Hill Climb is impressive.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieNvcv4mAnMhere is per ekland doing the same in a saab 93 viggen. I still don't get why rallying in not popular in the US.

 

it seems to be slowly growing paddy here in the states.

66gt, i have seen that before, that is some friggin sweet driving

 

We call it off-road racing here. Several guys I know have made the Pikes Peak run, one made and keptthe record for two years. The 'greenies' have closed much of the 'wild west' to protect the butterflys and weeds. Naturally these closings have been a benefit to street racing.

I love this sort of racing. Rally racing and mountain climbs always sucked me in. It was always my opinion it took much more talent and skill than most other races.

 

I love the fact that he was so composed while driving, that he even took one hand off the wheel to block the sun!

 

i love rally racing but its never really on TV that much. i think the reason its not so popular here has to do with the type of cars that are driven, i dont think a lot of people here like to watch those little 4 bangers. im thinking if you put those dirt track race cars (or something similar to that) on a mountain course it would probably be more sucessful here. but anyways that video is insane, oh and dont think his wing is big enough

 

My favorite part was midway through the video, the bug hitting the camera lens and they included the "splat"! I saw that to crunchyskippy

 

I was about to say that too. But seriously wow, kudos to taht guy, he came close to going off a couple times. But going that fast on that hard of a course is something I doubt any of us could do.

 

rallying looks like so much fun! i wish it had a popular base here in the states, but im doing a few SCCA events this summer so i guess that will help a little
