Jeff Zwart Pikes Peak Run, 2014 - /DRIVER'S EYE

YouTube Description:

Jeff Zwart in the Porsche GT3 Cup Turbo Hill Climb Special, during Pikes Peak 2014. Soon after leaving the starting line, one of the fuel pumps begins to fail, only to get worse by the summit. Watch as Jeff battles the malfunction in real-time, at speeds upwards of 140mph. The first time a mechanical issue appeared, even after months of testing and practice runs with the car.

I guess that's why you have dual fuel pumps on a race car, huh?
Great driving, I just wish he would stop throwing the squirrels into that wood chipper.

If you look at how the camera moves when it cuts out repeatedly in the 2nd half of the vid, it's very much like jumping on the brakes every time it cuts out... even aside from the squirrel in the wood chipper noise!

He did well to be within 1.2 seconds of the first place time after those problems.
