Climbing Pikes Peak with a Monster
Author: mr.lateAug 27
For the fifth consecutive time, Nobuhiro “Monster” Tajima combined experience, skill and Falken Tires to claim overall victory in the 88th running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.
Although he did not set a new Pikes Peak record, one day before his 60th birthday, Tajima continues to hold the current overall record for reaching the peak, beating hill climb veterans Paul Dallenbach and Rhys Millen in the Unlimited Class. He drove his new 910-hp Monster Sport Suzuki SX4 Hill Climb Special on Falken WildPeak A/T tires, the powerful new line of all-terrain, all-season tires Falken launched this past April.
Following exhaustive tests in a Japanese wind tunnel facility, Monster’s 2010 Pikes Peak race car underwent extensive aerodynamic changes to better adapt to the modified road surface on the race to the clouds, which assumed a smoother tarmac and less gravel than last year. Thinning air ascending the mountain robs most motors of their power by 30 or more percent, but the increase in horsepower over last year’s race car helped push the driver forward.

The movie is in French which makes it a bit sad but there is not much speaking and the images speak for themselves.
We think the Road Safety Authority should consider remaking it to get the word across over here.

Of all the action from last weekend’s Rally New Zealand, one incident caught our attention, and unfortunately it also got Mark Tapper’s too.
“A very white bottom that was beside the road put me off for a fraction of a second, then I just ran wide and rolled,” Tapper says.
So Tapper’s rally came to a spectacular end – thanks to a spectator’s end.
