Rules for fun runs on a hill climb

1. Approach start line and sit there revving engine up and down making lots of noise

2. Leave start spinning wheels, making a spectacle of sound and smoke

3. As soon as you are far enough away from start lift off accelerator.

4. Hit brakes, enter bend gently going round it, exaggerating wrestling with steering wheel for hopefully a good photo (don't forget to lean in car resisting the Gs, instruct passengers to do same)

5. Continue up the hill doing point 4 at each bend.

6. At finish straight accelerate as hard as possible knowing you can stop in straight line after the finish line.

Get out with big grin on face.

Have fun.

If in doubt flat out,or in the words of Roger Clark sideways to victory.The other option is to feel your age and drive up like an old woman.Im in touch with my feminine side might do a bit of both

I have seen that before. Plus 8 with competition roll bar; The driver got it very badly pear shaped. The only thing I can think is that he forgot to fasten his seat belt. Lucky he was not badly hurt.

Mario, I'm not going to show that to Alis either hide
