    Just watched this video, it is utterly the worst coverage I have seen in modern times. Everything from the announcers to the pilot and camera crew should be fired. They sucked.:thumbdown::(

    Loeb and his Peugeot on the other hand, were awesome!! :thumbup::cool:

    The Peugeot has a lot more color now and they've moved on to testing on some hills. Apparently Loeb's feedback so far is pointing to fundamental aspects of the car, turn-in too sharp, lower gears too tall, etc.

    Wow talk about crashing & burning. Glad he escaped & didn't start another wild fire in Colorado.

    Monster Tajima just set an electric vehicle time of 9:46, would have matched Millen's course record last year.

    Peugeot's onboard POV video of Loeb's record run can be seen here (I recommend full screen :yesnod: ).

    I had some friends up on the Peak this weekend, they will be putting up pictures and some videos. I will try to cross-link them when I see them.

    Sadly, I did not get up the Peak for this race, of course, I did not miss being in the snow, again!

    Last thoughts (maybe) from Loeb on the experience overall.

    Here's Tajima's new car. No one seems to know whether it will show up at Pike's Peak this year though. He's still listed under the Electric division so he may be taking the E-Runner he drove last year.

    I'm not certain, but I think it was fully paved already for 2012.

    Yes, it's all paved for the first time this year. You'll see some very different cars this year.
    I drove it about 6 years ago, at regular speeds. It is a great drive and I highly recommend it.
