Talking 2017 Mt Washington Hill climb

So this year after the last in 2014 I got declined , now in 2017 I got invited and accepted to this event.
This event is only happens every 3 years . I think the most dangerous road, according to many top PP people even a more technical one too. Fact is shorter then PP, about 8 mile and top is less altitude. But it is a lot steeper, lot narrower, and more trickier turns, super unpredictable road conditions / surface. Including a super sloppy clay type of dirt section.

Anyway I GOT ACCEPTED.

I am super excited. I saw many other Evos there, hope they are in this forum too and post here.

here is some infos about the event.

the short no pictures entry list:

David Higgins:


Travis Pastrana:


Ted Cook


some pictures of the road and condition, many many blind corners , humps -bumps- off camber turns . You name it.

I'm originally from NH and will be out there with my brother shooting photos. We were considering also entering a car, but the team he runs with in AER decided against it. Perhaps in 3 years we'll have an entry too.

Good luck out there! Hopefully I'll be ready for the next one. Hope you can make it down for a PA hillclimb this year.

Also, apologies, I got ahead of myself before. Congratulations on being accepted, I hope you show all those Subarus what's up.

I'll look for you on Facebook and add you, I'd definitely like to come by and say hi and check out the car.
