Rhys Millen set a new world record time up Pikes Peak this year, with a time of 9:46.164. Check out his onboard footage from his run in his Hyundai Genesis which also doubles as his drift car. For the first time in its history the whole Pikes Peak Hill Climb course was all tarmac, so a new record was expected as there was no gravel like in previous years.
