Entertaining to watch, but the article spares the only information I really care about: what's his time?
As mentioned earlier - about a year.

Now that's a bit slower than Loeb's record....

I quite like this, ok it was well prepared beforehand with lots of rubber down on the road, but then they all do that, even vids for car mags.

Nice to see the mountain again, the video work is very well done.

If you gave most of us that car and said, tally o old chap, I guess it might not quite be as good. He's got this oversteer video area cornered pardon the pun.

It would be interesting to see what time that car done driven smoothly would do. No downforce of course. Stick some big wings on? Mad Max would be happy.

In the greater shakes of thing nothing much, but as a fun diversion better than doing spins in some sort of post apocalypse US marine army base.

Bizarrely enough I found this yesterday on YouTube. Don't normally watch this sort of thing but I am a bit of a fan of Pike's Peak.

While his skill is undeniable, it's all theatrical and not at all grounded in motorsport. Cleverly choreographed, staged and exquisitely filmed yes - motorsport no, as proved by his involvement in WRX and, I seem to recall, WRC.
