After watching a fair few youtube videos, and the incredible 'Cloud Dance' short film, myself and a few friends are more than keen to get out there to watch it next year.
Just wondering about the approximate costs of this trip ?
(incl flight, accm, ect)

thumbup It looks like a very fun event to go to, I've never been but go to the Race to the Sky down here in NZ which is a similar hillclimb (without quite as much history though, only been going since the 90s) and great fun.

www.racetothesky.com

Some of my photos from last years hillclimb here:

Everything from Monster Tajima's 950bhp Suzuki, 700bhp Imprezas and Evos, 400bhp winged nutter quad-bikes, Mk2 Escorts, etc...

I would like to go too, especially as the greenies keep making noises about paving the road (!?)

Surely somebody here has advice!

Ahh, didn't click that you were the same guy from the other post or I wouldn't have bothered putting up the link again. Guess I'm giving them some free advertising anyway disclaimer:No affiliation etc etc blah blah blah


Now I think I'll watch 'Climb Dance' again
