Mt. Washington Hill Climb

[ChaunceyM]

Just watched Travis Pastrana's record-breaking run up Mt. Washington. It's f'n insane. Especially during the dirt section. Seeing how loose that car is really getting, at those speeds, mere inches from tumbling down a mountain, is crazy.
And makes me wish I had a bigger monitor at work and better speakers. Fuck that was great.
This, plus a local NATOR guy doing a hillclimb in his Miata, may push me over the edge of trying to do a climb next year. Already have the cage, so hopefully the rest of the required mods are reasonable.

You sure a fwd is appropriate for a Hill climb?

[ChaunceyM]

Appropriate? Sure. Ideal? Not for anything. Since I just drive for fun it doesn't matter how much time I'm leaving out there on the road/track. No crashes and lots of point-bys and everyone's happy.
I own it and have too big of a support crew here to move to another platform until really necessary. I'm going to keep rocking the MS3 until I officially can drive better than the car. Which I'm sure will be many years. Or until it dies a fiery death.

support crew?

[ChaunceyM]

Support crew meaning all the Nator guys and peeps here that have seen and done everything already. Anything I break someone local has replaced that before and is willing to jump in to lend a hand.
