Scottish Hillclimb

Here's something a bit different....a hillclimb in Doune, Scotland. Notice how narrow the course is!

The car is a GWR Raptor, a British open-wheel race car that (typically) uses a Suzuki Hyabusa engine.

By the way, the run in this video was about 2 seconds <span style="text-decoration: underline">slower</span> than the record for this place.

That looks more like a bike path then anything you would drive a care on.
 
Nial,

good friend of mine just got a used Radical SR3...

He's is getting back into hillclimbing again....
 
Hillclimbs are a blast!I'd be a little more than concerned
running a street car on such a narrow course - not much room for
error,or drift.

The guy was pretty smooth, but not much room for error.

The Hyabusa engine: 160HP stock at about 11,000 RPM. Wheeeee! :lol:
 
What a BLAST!! I'm jealous. :laugh:
 
Man, that makes the Schenley Park course look like a super-highway!
