Yes, you can drive up it. It's a toll road .... There is more info here:

well here is the thing my cousins from Colarado said they knew the head of the rally car divison of... i dont remember....mitsubishi or nissan, is nissan even in wrc..ah who cares well they said if i came over there (from Chicago) they could set up a few runs for me free I was just kinda tring to gague if this is a big deal or if any one can do it and if its worth the 15 hour drive any more info would be great thanks

 

As stated it's an open public toll road (with rangers with radar guns). Only during the hill climb in late June can you legally race up it. It also is typically only open from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Having said all that it is worth the drive up at any speed, it's an awesome piece of road and to actually race there...it's beyond description

 

my neighbor is a professional race car driver ( NASCAR, BAJA runs etc) hes driven up there quite a few times and said its amazing!

 

there are only 2 things i will tackle before death:

1) pikes peak
2) the ring

good luck if you decide it is worth it. crazy road, i have a few vids on the computer of a mid 80's peugeot going all out up it. pretty hairy in more than a few places.

that is seriously just so damn expensive.

 

wow i guess its worth the drive

 

i dont know if im willing to pay that much for a days drive. you know? unless i make mad loot and have nothing better to do. but taking a loan out for a drive like that? F that. think they have a loan officer ready? hahaha

 

I heard ealier this year that they're planning to pave the road all the way to the top so the hill climb will only be around for a few years more on the dirt. It's worth it just to drive slowly to the top though.

 

ahh just drive over loveland pass for some real height..

 

I've been to the top twice. Its alot of fun to drive up (no guardrails anywhere) ans going down is even better. They have checkpoints on the way down to see if your brakes are overheating, lots of engine breaking kept my brakes cool and having the a/c running helped my engine braking. Do it at least once, it is a blast!
