Monster Tajima's Record Breaking run at Pikes Peak Hill Climb

Shot 100% with GoPro cameras, this project between Pat Barrett and myself, Wes Nobles, took quite a while to perfect but this is the final result. Hope you enjoy.

I have driven this road and that is very impressive, but damn that is one long boring video.

The game Dirt 2 has that track, I did it at least 30 times (I know all the curves), and...
This driver is very very perfect!!! :O

But what's sad is they put asphalt on that track, gravel was a greater challenge. :S

If you're interested, search for "pikes peak uphill drifting" or "climb dance" with the Peugeot 405 T16 and you'll see talent on gravel, which require more skills than on asphalt! 8-)

Great drive, but I liked more Ari Vatanen's run, maybe cause it's more dramatic, more on the edge and it was 22 years ago with a lot less sophisticated car, with no computers to help you. :(|)

It looks so easy, but bet he is burning more calories then a weightlifter, just one pebble or one leaf on the road, and it could go wrong, if you don't know your car 100%.
