I went to Colorado Springs over the past weekend and in our Hotel parking lot was a trailer that sat a EVO 9 and a GC8 Impreza. Both Caged... EVO have huge Advan RG-II w/big brakes, and both had a number plate on the side.

Upon further inspection I read Pikes Peak Internation Hill Climb. The only thing that came to mind was the Suzuki Escudo on Gran Turismo; you know the fastest car on the game hehe

Long story short Sunday morning my GF and I head to the top of PP. You have to stop at the 7 mile mark and walk about 1/4 of a mile to the start line. We got the right in time Tajima and crew were just preping "Monster" and man was that shit bad... :bowdown:

We were there for a couple of hours but Monster was the only car I seen run.

There was a Camaro warming up but that was it no run from him.

oh and Monster is the fastest up Pikes Peak at 10.01 in 2007 the vid above is him running this years best of a 10:18.
