I ran this event last year and it was a blast! Since a club racing license is valid for Hillclimbs, I figured I'd give it a try. Somebody come compete against me in ITB at Crow Mountain this year!
Thanks
Eddie
that looks awesome! I'd love to try it!
If you think hillclimbs look fun--check this out from last weekend at the Blue Ridge Hillclimb in NC. http://www.subaruworld.net/downloads/videos/
I was bummed to miss the Blue Ridge this year. It's a great event.
I only wish that they'd find a way to make it exactly twice as long as it is. The NW hillclimbs were all right at 2 miles, plus or minus a bit, and the additional distance made them more of a mental exercise. The BRHC is not what one would call difficult to memorize.
The town and people are great and the regulars are really nice people to hang out with. I recommend it.

Don't miss Crow Mtn - it is a great course.
1.85 miles, 720 feet of elevation change from the start to the finish.

Pretty cool.

Lots of great memories from that place. It is for sale and word is that the state is buying. We will do our best to race there again if that happens!!Quote:

Evan,
I love that video - it helps that the opening shot is ME! :D
I had a rough week at work and wasn't able to reply, but I just wanted to say WAY COOL!!!! I miss the days of the Mt Washington Hillclimb. My dad ran that hillclimb for years in a SSB Mitsubishi, a ITE Mustang, a AS Mustang, and one of the first WRX's to ever come into the country. He also ran my ITB Audi the first year we built the cars, then after that Stephen and I raced them!!! It was a blast!!! Certainly is the most fun I have ever had in a race car (despite "the accident" on the final year) and most challenging. Someday I will get up to speed and post video's (but that wont be anytime soon, sorry).
Anyway if you have never done a hillclimb, go do it... it is a blast!!!
Raymond

Up here??? where are you from? They have a lot in VT with the Killington Sports Car Club. Good group of people. I want to do one this fall, but I have been a bit to busy to even think about it. :wacko:
