I kept wanting to say "Toonces look out!"

Seriously, it's slow a bit at first...but wow, impressive. Good Post.

That was SCARY!! I wonder how many people go over the side in that race....

...and how many of those bystanders are taken with them.

(Are they nuts for standing so close? Did the lack of oxygen get to them?)

Great post. It was like you were in the car. I'll bet it was amazing on a big screen.

Wow thanks alot Daphne and SwampGirl when I posted this you didn't even see/vote on it

so now you're too good to vote for it?

;-)

I've heard about this race; I climbed Pikes Peak in the little cog railway train. Cool trip. V. cool vid. On the way down there are mandatory stops where they check the temperature of your brakes! Welcome nosro

Maybe if you'd stop getting rid of them after 3 hours, there would be more time for people to see your subs.

;-)

And ya...if you liked it, you should vote for it. We're all a collective here. We are Sift. We are 3 of 6.

Congrats, nosro!

*Gets brainwashed* Okay!

lol

*Now give all your money to the sift*

sorry farhad...

Welcome to the Sift, nosro!

OKay!

*Starts robbing Daphne*

I've driven this race dozens of times, it's unbelievably challenging, especially in the more powerful turbocharged wing cars. Tonnes of fun. On my Playstation.

lol...you had me. I was going to grill you on how scary it was. The "tonnes" should have tipped me off that you aren't even in the US, let alone Colorado!

:-P

i've never participated in the race, but i've driven up and down that mountain several times. it's kinda freaky at points, if you drop off the track, it's a nice downhill tumble... other than that it's just a very winding road. the altitude affects the cars more than it affects the people, then again, i've lived here for over a decade, so i've acclimated. lol.

Get that man some paddle shifters and a co-pilot!

Then plant about 10,000 trees and scatter some rocks the size of tractor trailers and we'll call it rally racing.

Sign me up!
