Pikes Peak
 
Drove Pikes Peak yesterday. I never realized how crazy those drivers must be to do that. I guess this would help though. Saw at Colorado Springs dealership.

Sorry picture of car that raced recently won't post. Time for a new phone I guess.

I’ve always wanted to go watch. Sad I missed the gravel days, THAT would have been cool.

A good friend lives in Woodland Park and crews for one of his local pals who has competed for over 20 years in various motorcycle classes. We watched one of his GoPro videos one afternoon when I was out skiing. Holy crap! In car videos are scary enough but his bike stuff is Pure Pucker Factor. Perhaps the fact that he has terminal cancer negates some of his pucker factor. Cajones are much bigger than mine by at least 10X.
Springs dealership is great and a stop on my way thru the Springs.
