It's America's second oldest race and the fans turn out for it. Pikes Peak is a big draw. Here are some of the sights of downtown Colorado Springs.
At Johnny Martin's Car Club, you can drive a wicked PPIHC simulator. If you're a member.

Or you could just grab Pikes Peak from rFactorCentral and install it in rFactor, then run as many laps as you want in your own home. http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=…

"The Pikes Peak International Hill Climb is the second oldest motor sports race in America and a long-standing tradition in Colorado Springs and the Pikes Peak Region. First competed in 1916 and this year marks the 91st running of the "Race to the Clouds.""
What race do you think is the second oldest?

The Indy 500 is the second oldest, first raced in 1911. The oldest, and the one the quoted author likely forgot, is the Mt Washington "Climb To The Clouds," first run in 1905
