Hi,

Nice effort by Porsche. That was the 'Time Attack - RWD' class. Pretty amazing, that time beats out the nearest Mitsu by about 3 seconds.

The overall winner was Suzuki, or technically the 'Unlimited Class' winner. Millen came third in that class by almost a minute, second was a guy in a Chevy.

Full info here;

Cheers,
Nik

Hi,

No problems.

I am surprised that Rhys couldn't get even under the 11, maybe they should've stuck with the Genesis? Definitely not surprised by Tajima in the SX4 though. They have been flying up that mountain for a long time.

Cheers,
Nik

Gayle and Peter Brock were covering Zwart's efforts at Pike's Peak. Peter is writing an article for Excellence about it. She sent me this cool pic!

Thanks for sharing! When it comes to driving Porsches, Jeff Zwart is to Pike's Peak what Walter Rohrl is to Nurburgring.
