That is the eventual plan, I want to concentrate on the car without aero first and figure out what kind of modifications an oval car wing needs besides the obvious.
Glad ya got there and drove to the top, next time you will more prepared because ya know how the event goes. 2 more marks and yer golden. Curious, have ya considered running a wing?
Thanks man, we definitely will be better prepared after learning a lot from this. We will definitely be running wings eventually (especially for Pikes) but they’ll have to be custom a probably very expensive. I’m not worrying about aero right now though, there is a lot to sort out and I have to learn how to drive both the car and hillclimbs. Like you said, two more marks!
Ive always wanted to build a Pikes Peak Car as a (kid but believe it or not ) when they forced paved it i lost a little interest .Being a huge fan of Jim Hall’s Chaparral’s i wanted to have a adjustable WING…! Now seeing you have run this midget gives me some hope again like old SMOKEY THE Ford Pickup…! So I think the FACTORY FIVE CARS would be interesting..LIGHTWEIGHT, BUILD IT YOURSELF, ADD A WING for a little downforce, ‘’CHEVROLET POWER ‘’ BIG T.B.M. BRAKES and dad your on TOP..!!! …. GOOD LUCK TO YOU IN THE FUTURE …!
@@HotRodMonza1776 WHAT DOES THAT MEAN..? KYLE LARSON DRIVES SPRINT CARS AND YES THEY ARE POWERFUL WEDGE V8’S .. ?? 🤷🏻♂️ HE ALSO DRIVES MIDGETS THAT ARE NOT V-8’S ..? SO ? ? 🤷🏻♂️🤔🏁
@@Hotrodclassic You called this car a MIDGET so it is a SPRINT CAR NOT A MIDGET and to be TRUTHFUL its not a WEDGE V8 the heads have moved past that for like 30 years
Thank you for showing your appreciation to the PHC and how it is a close knit group.
Sorry just saw your short video of first start.
I see LS .👍
I'd like to see these sprint cars at the Euro and Brit hillclimbs. Think they would get a kick out of it.
@@genxunclekey I would absolutely love that!!!!
A shame your luck went the way it did. Sunday the sun came out and the road dried. It was a glorious day. Good to meet you. See you next year.
Overall I’m happy with our efforts but racing Sunday would have been very beneficial and a lot more fun lol. Great meeting you as well!
Great job! It was so nice meeting you and your family.
Thanks and great meeting you also!!!
What motor are you running!!
Sounds very healthy!!
PROPS Man taking a left hander both ways!!!!!
Thank you! There isn’t much left of a traditional car so that it would turn both ways lol
Yah! Gerryowen....

Amazing dude! keep up the great work
Very appreciated, thanks and we’ll do our best!
Do you plan on using any wings on the car?

I'm glad your not with Celia Hodes anymore 😅😅 TV Show reference.
I’m not sure I know that one lol
