If you live in the Denver area you may have seen these 2 rigs running around. They are from France and are here to

take on Pikes Peak. It will be interesting to see how they make out against the racing rigs.

Nice indeed! Now that it's paved I wonder...... If I just wasn't afraid of heights.... Question maybe I'll sponsor Doug.

Race time of 12:15, average speed of 58.7 MPH, third in sidecar class. Only 49 seconds slower than the class winner, who was on a dedicated road-racing sidecar.

Overall winner was WRC champion Sebastien Loeb, who brought over a factory Peugeot (street legal but heavily modified), and finished in 8:13, well over a minute faster than the previous record - average speed of 87.4 MPH.
