Video: Millen Prepares for Pike's Peak in His Lunatic Hyundai


There are only 5 days left before Rhys Millen lights the fuse on his utterly mad, 775-horsepower purpose-built racer and rips up Pike's Peak Highway's 12.42 miles of switchbacks and drunken campers.

Yes, we've shown you the Hyundai-power racer's build. We've shown you some hand-held video of the car, which looks for all the world like a scale-model IMSA GTP car from back in the day, testing. We even told you about how we strapped our testing gear to the thing and pulled some stupid numbers.

But now we're showing you the professionally shot and edited version straight from the race team as it tests. Know that with so few days left before Millen races against Monster Tajima and his Unlimited Division Suzuki and the 10-minute barrier, we probably won't do another post on this car/effort. But we're not making any promises. That thing is completely cool.
