When he put his hand in front his eyes to block the sun with the precipice so close and without any kind of barrier :shock:

the car pass by the edge very close. too dangerous

in fact, I already run there before... (in playstation?s gran turismo :roll: )

[Krys TOFF]

I don't know how many peopledied racing Pikes Peak Vamolo. But I know who was the 1st non-American to win this race.

Does anyone else knows which 1st non-American driver won this race ?
Which car used ?
Which year ?

I wait for answers.
