Default Awesome hill climb video!

There is some speculation about where this is, and what car it is, but the common theory is in France and the car is a Radical SR8:

.....regardless, this is awesome! I don't know who has the bigger stones...the driver or the spectators!

This is some serious acceleration!

I never even heard of these cars until yesterday, but they are very impressive little machines! They are even street legal in the UK!! Notice they have two seats....here are a few interesting vids about the cars....

There is a track and driving school that features both Corvettes and Radicals.....might be worth the drive to Nevada!
