Pikes Peak…

In 1989, an award-winning short film about the 1988 event was released by French director Jean-Louis Mourey. The film, titled “Climb Dance”, captured the efforts of Finnish former World Rally Champion Ari Vatanen, as he won the event in a record-breaking time with his turbocharged Peugeot 405 T16. Here is some quick info on Pikes Peak.
