Video: Rhys Millen's Hyuandai Genesis Couple at Pikes Peak, in car

I have to admit, I'm not much of a rally fan. I prefer my speed to be on pavement, usually in a straight line and occasionally going around some corners. But there's something utterly insane about rally, especially Pikes Peak.

You see, I've been up the giant mountain with it's curvy dirt roads and sometimes lack-of-a-guardrail curves. At a very slow speed. It blows my mind to think that people actually race up the mountain, vying all the while to break time records.

Rhys Millen took on the 14,110 foot summit this year in a Hyuandai Genesis Coupe, setting a course record along the way by covering 12.4 miles in 12 minutes, 9.397 seconds. Enjoy the video of his feat, which is about as close as this author will ever get to doing such a thing.
