That was incredible driving,very impressive.And for all who say he sucks,think about it this way:the track is half gravel,half tarmac,he's wrestling with 910 horsepower without any driving assists and the car is also long so it's not easy to keep it steady.This is not a video game,but reality.And Loeb had it easier because he drove on asphalt when he broke the record.Besides,this is more exciting to watch than Loeb's run.

Grand turismo 2 bought me here I will never forget this beast.

Far more exciting than Loeb's WR, all tarmac run.

If everyone thinks he sucks, ask yourselves why. If he was so bad he wouldn't have even been in these cars year after year for decades, let alone winning regularly. As for people comparing this run to loebs run remember loebs run was all asphalt unlike this. Loeb had a car with a few years more development, his tyres weren't a compromise between gravel and slicks. He is much younger so he will be fitter and is possibly one of the best drivers in history. Yet this old man who sucks can still do a run to match.

I think highly of Tajima, so I won't put him down at all, but Loeb's car was sort of thrown together. The only development was the chassis and some development to the engine. All the other parts were cobbled together from various Peugeot race cars from their past efforts in WRC and LeMans (including the engine) because the team only had 6 months to make the car. It's a Frankenstein, basically, so it didn't have years more development

DAGATHire wow, 6 years old, normally I'm told I sound like an old man. I could understand how people don't agree with me (that's a regularity) but sounding like a 6 year old. I understand that bit. Technology does get more advanced year on year does it not? Even if Peugeot rushed it, the odds are it would be a superior design for the job it must do. Also tyres improve as we learn more. If you read up on motorsport or have grown up in and surrounded by it as I have you may see perhaps I'm not so childish as I may seem. But stranger things have happened.

Because people in motorsport don't give a toss about that idiots on youtube say let alone would they be bothered to take the time to make comments in reply to those idiots. , yet here you are telling us you have a motorsport background. Frankly i don't believe you. But lets agree to disagree shall we? I mean, we do agree fundamentally that the driver here is no a bad driver. So lets leave it at that. Im not interested in a fantasy story abut your amazing career in motorsport.

DAGATHire I'm not saying that I have a career in motorsport (I'm a sheet metal worker) my grandad used to do car trials in a mini cooper his brother used to rally for years and my dad races with the 750 motorclub, we have almost finished the third car we have built. Also I used to have a vauxhall chevette rally car. As a child I used to help out on and off making extended wheel arches at prepfab motorsport engineering, before they moved to France. Prepfab have built cars for big names such as Jimmy mcrae. Anyway I do agree we should agree to disagree as this is a daft argument.

Let me clear something out. Loeb, one of the best wrc ever, did this pike peak on asphalt. Tajima did it on half dirt half asphalt. How did you guys ever compare those 2 runs ? Its like comparing Lewis Hamilton againts Loeb on a dirt track ..... Yes the Monster Sport Sx4 have more power then loebs peugeot, it needs it, they do it on different kind of track. Yes Loeb would probably do better then Tajima for the only reason that his younger and only want to push push push and push.

Exactly the same point I thought of. This is just 2 fantastic runs driven on 2 different "Tracks" if u will... To compare it at all is a waste of time hehe

I have to say this is one of the best footage's and POV video I've watched, I'll agree with some of the others who stated that Pike's Peak should've remained a semi-dirt course. I just came here from watching a sub 8-second run from a VW IDR, which basically sounded like a toy car. Don't get me wrong, it's screamingly fast! There is just much more pleasure watching a driver fight with the dirt and throwing his car into a controlled drift around the numerous technical corners. BIG KUDOS to Tajima and his team for their accomplishments on this course!

Thank goodness I found this video, it gets better and better each time I watch it....Thank you Ninja Tajima for showing us how to drive!

In my opinion by completely paving Pikes Peak they have turned the most "unique" hill climb course in the world into "just" another tarmac hill climb......

it's safer, it's also easier to set up cars for it this way since you don't have to set it up to handle both gravel and tarmac and people will be faster and that's the endgame go fast, easy to talk shit when you're not the one working hours on end on the cars or risking your life driving them

@lynneb70

I have something to say. The reason why pikes peak was painted because of erosion. The road would have been crumbly and about to break. Then there would be no roads. So would you have a pikes peak hillclimb or no pikes peak at all???

I cant get over how powerful that car sounds.

It's amazing the car can even move while being weighed down by that driver's gigantic balls of steel.

Tajima Rocks you go Buddy.

This car was nutty enough on gran turismo. Thanks for uploading. Good video.

Loved it...really shows the speed involved with winning

I've been up pikes peak many times. It's a white knuckle drive at 25mph towards the top . I couldn't imagine it at those speeds... :P

first off there was no dirt when Loeb ran in 2013 did u not know that smart guy

Perfection ... This video hits all the right spots.

congratulations 2011.... Monster has done it now... 9:51, a new record! nice driving

I remember jus putting weight on the gas pedal in the endurance oval race track on gt2 and winning lots of free money bc of this car

ridiculous fast! huge respect at the driver. great job!!!

My ears are popping just from looking at it. This was a blast to watch. However, I would prefer it to have fewer camera changes. Don't get me wrong, it's great seeing it from all of the perspectives, but changing views every couple of seconds was a little bit annoying some of the times.

yes but ecu have limits and most important the parts like Injectors size, flow,turbo air pressure specific tuned maps etc. Race cars are tuned for very specific weather conditions one day at a time. They will not install parts at sea level and tune them together to run at high altitude.

live in the springs can't wait for this year!!!

Ok i thought ecu was programmed with limits in its ability to adapt the AFR. Here i see all diesel to smoke in the mountains and all gas engines smell strong About parts : is a set of injector can handle so big differences between top and bottom of the race ? Maybe there are two on the engine ? The turbo pressure is electronically controlled by the ecu ?

I have driven this road several times, it is even more scary than it looks. Those rain clouds actually dump hail instead of rain and can cover the road with six inches of snow in a matter of minutes. Imagine trying to drive down in that.

i never watched rally...now i play DIRT3(Suzuki sx4 HELL YEAH !!!) and i found that i fugggin' love this shit...mad respect to all these drivers !

Woah bro! That is amazing, but he seemed a bit reckless there a few times, I was scared for him.

My Jaw Tripped and Fell. :D that was awesome!

Der, meiner Meinung nach, unangefochten beste Autofahrer auf dieser Welt. Die Autos von heute sind wahrscheinlich traumhaft zu kontrollieren, im gegensatz zu dem S1 von damals. Gebe dir zu 100 % Recht, Röhrl ist der Gott!!

My heart just about stopped at 8:22 when the camera picked off the pylon!!

Sick precision at 2:04! Monster is Monster!

It was a spectacular performance. I just think the race was so much better when it was all dirt and there were no guard rails. That's when the Unser family dominated it, having learned to drive on empty dirt roads in New Mexico.

you post this on the video the man who broke the 10 minute barrier up Pikes peak... and won it... at 60 years of age... yeeeaaahhh.

amazing race

SERIOUS driving skills right here

A moment of silence for the bug at 6:36

the old truck camper on the hairpin was awesome

@mokiprop Yes they do, but the impact is lessened with force induction.

that was quite literally the craziest thing Ive seen.

its madness... I love it!

I was at Cove Creek in 2010, and again in 2011. I've watched from up at Devil's Playground three times (1995, 2000, and 2002).

Good run dude and to all those people who said he sucks i would love to see your videos of you going up pikes in your own car but i doubt you guys have the balls to even try it so how about you all give him major props

That was satisfactorily to watch for some reason.

Gott ? höchstens ein alten Sack -grins- Seb hat den Pendel dorthin gebracht wo er gehört... Einfach nur der Beste :p

Is sooo good quality video editing that it seems a videogame, instead is only the reality..

Legendary!!!!!

i'd love to see walter röhrls legendary run in his audi sport quattro s1 pikes peak from 1987 with all that camera angels and where the track was completely gravel that would kick ass. as much as this run by the monster. plain awesome. kudos!

it is too bad that they paved the the greatest hill climb in the world. This is a legacy video of the Pikes Peak Hill Climb, this hill climb was done on a dirt course like a true Hillclimb should be.

The 96` Suzuki Escudo is still my favorite

how much horsepower is lost from the bottom to the top?

So it's at sea level Thank you

11:02 smeared a hay bail. Fine bit of drivin there.

I wish to be a passenger on that rollercoaster. Best thrill race yet.

AHHHH HOLY CRAP! That was INTENSE

I remember using the Suzuki Pikes Peak car in Gran Turismo. You would make the engine have 1000 some horsepower and it was awesome.

BAD ASS VIDEO !!!!

To equip a compact crossover with a 900+ hp engine, is just insane...PWR result is higher than on Monster's old Pajero...which were also insane before...

The Group B cars where and still are some of the most amazing machines to grace the WRC or any racing fore that matter

He has that vehicle spacing down quite nicely

I HAVE NEVER EVER EVER EVER WANTED SO MUCH TO DRIVE! i would kill to drive in this stage even with bicycle! i hope petter solberg drifts the whole track while going all out breaking the record!!! i am considering going there from greece to see that!!!!

2:37 Woah nice correction, look at all those people!

Totally felt like a GT5 Run in a Escudo!

did they add more assfualt at the top of the mountion because i saw a video of a audi s1 and it was all dirt at the top????

Anyone know how much power this was producing by the time it got to the top?

Track on dirt 1 is just a bit diferent in the last part, but damn...the more i see this, the more i love it!!!!

That thing is all over the place! If that was me driving, i wouldn't be all over the place. I would be about 500m off the road, rolling down the mountain.

Amazing!

awesome driver!

does the track still have some ground parts ? Or it's all asphalt now ?

I supervise some road construction for drilling rigs, and I used to survey roads. I'm very impressed with the engineering of this road. I'd like to see an event with a bunch of drunk rig workers, just getting off shift, trying to get down the mountain during a rig move.
