Yep several f1 drivers out there and some are driven by F1 designers like Newey's jag which went flying off into the tire wall. I'm sure he can just design some new aero package for it now that it has all that bent metal.

I'm amazed it's taken so long to break the 10 minute barrier on Pike's Peak. It's about 90% pavement now and should be 100% paved for next year's race. We need to get some of the World Rally drivers into all wheel drive turbo cars--they could probably break the 9 minute barrier. I used to live in Colorado Springs and attended a couple of the races. The first time I went it was a hot July day so I wore shorts. I ended up spectating above 10,000 feet and it snowed on me! Froze my butt off and made for a long day on the mountain--once they close the course for the race your car is stuck there until the race ends.

I feel bad for Eric. Even if they fix the truck for free, he had to fly home and will have to get back to Mansfield to pick it up and then pick up the trailer. I guess he will be terrorizing TTC this weekend in his other car.

I agree on the breaking the 9 minute mark(maybe even faster) with guys like Loeb.

Buy Chevy/GMC to avoid the trucks that claim to tow the world and blow up under load. The limiting factor for most GMC/Chevy trucks is brakes, not the disposable motors.
