I would love to see some electric and hybrid cars fly up the hill.
University and colleges should be asked to build cars also.
Wonder if any cars are coming from Area 27.

Perhaps. I used to go and watch and walk the pit area. One thing is cars have to have a tow ring attached and I believe a roll cage as well. If memory serves, all the cars I saw had cages. One year there was a yellow Ferrari Dino 246 that was used for racing and entered the hill climb. Never saw it again after that year. Perhaps restored to original and sold for $400,000+
Many of those cars that you see at Area 27 are from Kelowna. In the morning there is a parade of go fast cars heading south and in the evening, same heading north. Hockey players at their summer homes.
