Hillclimb Videos
Thought I'd share a couple videos from the PA Hillclimb circuit this season. This kind of racing is surprisingly easy to get into. If you've done track days and the danger of racing on public roads doesn't bother you, all you need is some extra safety gear (roll bar, fire suit, fire extinguisher, etc...) and a big pair of ***** Come out and join us!

Ohh, and it also needs to be in a decent location. We used to do one on the back road that goes up to Snow Shoe, WV but its out in the middle of nowhere, it was a great road but too long of a drive from civilization, no one showed up.

There are, but the requirements for a road to be used for a hillclimb are tricky. The most obvious is that it must be almost exclusively uphill, it also has to have barely any homes or businesses on it (any that are must be willing to not have access to their home or business for an entire weekend without compensation... usually that only happens if they happen to be fans of the sport.) and finally, it must be "safe." Obviously our definition of safe is a lot different than most, but it still has to meet some basic criteria to make insuring the event feasible.

We do time trials at Pittsburgh International Race Complex on both the North Track and the Wilson Circuit (the kart track). The Wilson Circuit time trial is ridiculously fun, I highly recommend it. Basically an autocross on steroids.
The closest hill climb to Pittsburgh is Polish Mtn. in Flinstone, MD. More info here
