A true legend … Rod Millen is the embodiment of my racecar dreams! Love off-road racing, love rally racing, he did them both to larger than life standards and yet remains one of the most genuinely wonderful human beings …I do treasure getting to see him race again … and that is what also makes PPIHC a gem in the rally race world!

@DavidLucas-hf1cx 2 года назад

Great series and what an amazing story.. pulling a car ( and driver) from the golden years of Pikes Peak out of mothballs to compete nearly 25 years later.. No factory sponsorship, old turbo technology, minimal spars, substituted fuel, tires and electronics.. Barely any testing or changes to a car that was designed for what amounted to a gravel fire Road. Eight place finish for the day, third in class, not too bad for a “exhibition run”. I have a new appreciation for how cutting edge that car was in the day and how fast Rod actually was and still is…Wow!

@georgekerr8804 2 года назад

Awesome to see the Tacoma series, having talked to the guy who built the fullsize model for the floor. I worked for Dan Gurney at the time.

I was following Rhys since he was driving a yellow "gto"( around 06 d1?) And of course I knew he was the real driver of the dukes of hazard movie, and Tokyo drift.....then I learned about what his dad used to do, started looking back. So cool you got to put your sticker on this icon

@rickduquette3399 2 года назад

I really enjoyed watching these videos of Rod Millen running Pikes Peak one more time. Truly a great series, I'm glad that I tuned in for all of them. Thank you, Larry, Rod, Reese, and the crew back at the shop.

@olivercooney6645 2 года назад

Was so happy to hear this was happening even more so when I found out Larry was covering how can one car still be this competitive almost as much as when it was first built its not been out a year or two it's a very long time it's really is a epic story of engineering

SUCH an awesome car & man! Thanks SO MUCH for this series of videos! Rod & Rhys are on my hero list! SO MUCH TALENT! & they both seem like good people!

@KimiWallrus 2 года назад

Love the content. The first time to Pikes Peak we got to see Rod run this truck. I don't know how spicy the fuel was but it had half of the turbo lag before. This whole program is a amazing representation 9f how bad ass people like Rod Millen and his crew is but was 25 years ago! Chevrolet did a throwback and made the vette look like his truck 30 years later lmao!

@joecoool100 2 года назад

Larry I really appreciate the loving care you took with these videos….all the best.

@blacklabelholsters1635 Год назад

What a rush of memories watching this! I remember telling my instructor at the automotive training program I was in during 2000 about this"truck". I'll never forget his definitive "not possible" after telling him that they were getting 1,000+ hp from a turbo 4 cylinder car and that they are making over 50lbs of boost. He soon learned that I was speaking the truth!

This guy is such a part of this event's history. So cool watching this coverage. Love Larry's channel! The only thing I was wondering about is would Rod snap his fingers and bring back the dirt if he could, instead of the asphalt?!

@chewdoobautomotivedetailtm2883 2 года назад

My guess is to get a tire manufacturer to do a F1 all season tire soft compound for pikes to conquer that wet asphalt..

@cncdan1364 2 года назад

Such a smart idea to put the shifter on his left hand side. With a sequential only pushing up and down using your dominant hand doesn’t matter but let’s him use it to stead still. If he’s right handed that is

The 1st 60 seconds of video has me saying fuck that peice of shit! Y'all need some chassis wizards to fix that suspension so it's not hopping, bouncing and uncontrollable. If it can't be tuned or modified? Scrap it and find a different chassis.
