What does it take to conquer the legendary Pikes Peak International Hill Climb? Brace yourself as we dive into the electric atmosphere of this storied race, dissecting the grueling 12.43-mile ascent with its 153 hair-raising corners and staggering 5,800 feet of elevation gain. We'll take you inside the cockpit of a Lexus RX 450 H+ for a firsthand account of the white-knuckle drive up Pikes Peak, and offer a ringside seat to the meticulous training regimes of elite competitors like Romain Dumas and Hyundai's WRC champions. Uncover the vital role simulators play in preparing for the race, and marvel at the bravery required to tackle the mountain without guardrails.
Switching gears, we send a big shout-out to Richard Tomlin of Apex Auto Works for his outstanding achievement before breaking down the timeless necessity of hand signals in driving and cycling. Remember the hand signals for left turns, right turns, and stopping? We revisit their historical importance and current relevance, especially when vehicle lights fail. We also highlight the limitations of hand signals at night, urging caution to stay safe. Finally, we provide a no-holds-barred review of the Chrysler Pacifica, reinforcing why these driving fundamentals never go out of style.
