I loved every minute of this video! Just have to tell you though about my first summit of PP. June 1, 1975, I was not the first auto on the climb... We passed several larger cars on the way up, gravel road on the top half. 1973 Pinto St Wgn, 2L, family of 4 on board and following a snow plow into the summit parking lot, we were the first automobile to summit Pikes Peak in 1975. No credit, no prize, little O2, what a beautiful view though. Hated to descend. Thanks again for the screaming and fascinating video!

20:39 - "this is the most dangerous race track on the planet" Isle of Man: laughs mortally

I was wondering why the brand of engine was never mentioned. The engineers at Suzuki built a game changer world wide with the release of the GSX1300R ENGINE back in 1999. I am a bit biased as I own my own Busa that has given me thrills for close to a decade. So... a big Congratulations to all of you team members for your commitment, dedication, and focus to make it all come together on one glorious day! Also.. to you 3 drivers.. you are a gutsy bunch of calculating men! It takes nerve, daring, and guts to hold your life in your hands so many times in the minutes it took to reach the peak. My hat is off to all of you. A truly Great accomplishment! Thank you for showing this video to the world. Also... doing so much with the lightest combo that you guys engineered to perfection.

I've said it before and said it again - do not stop making these videos guys and don't stop doing what you love. What you're doing is infectious as all hell! In awe of the team spirit you all share driven all on the same passion and love for the sport of racing. Hat will always be off to you Cole and your team. Huge congrats and awesome to have been able to watch and experience it.

This should have 10 million views.. OMG... I'm emotionally drained.. I cant imagine actually being a driver.. LOLOL

I just found this video almost 2 years later and I must say, you guys are fantastic. May God bless you all and keep you safe for many years to come. -Much love!

Absolutely fantastic!!!! I feel so inspired to follow my life long plan to be part of the New Zealand version of pike's peak , " The Race to the sky " Cadrona , Queens town , I've been planning for meny years, designing , sleepless nights building in my mind, drawings etc etc ,. You all inspire me to make this happen, GOD bless you all, it's people just like you who are impacting people like myself who needs just a little bit of inspiration to set me back on track to follow my passion and dream.. .

Man, that was a close call at 29:36. I think he only missed it by 10 inches or so 😲 Great job!

Pike's Peak is insane! That car is insane! And those guys are National Treasures.

Total monster drivers and cars!! Literally riding on the razors edge of death and killing it!! Loved this!

Ten minutes isn't the same now that it's paved to the top.

This is some of the best racing content I have ever seen in my entire life! You guys are destined for big things with this channel

I still don’t understand why this channel is so small! Seriously, amazing content guys!

As someone who learned how to drive in those mountains I totally agree that you only do it if your in sync with the mountain That being said racing up the mountain means nothing the real test is downhill.

Really don't need music at all when the cars are ripping up the hill. The car alone is the perfect soundtrack IMO. A nice doco vid on an iconic race.

The human brain knows no limits and racing is one the of the most challenging of the elements to haunt them i was around racing in my younger days it still holds the most awesome feeling in the world to break records go faster than you thought possible this is one of the best videos i have ever seen on how it all works. Thank you so much for all your efforts.!!!!!!!!!!

This race reminds me of the Isle of Man TT. Both "old school" road races where if you screw up, you die.

Absolutely freaking amazing, emotional, and a whole lot of pride, and I'm not even a part of the actual team, just absolutely blown away, well done guys 👏🏼👍🏻🍻

Thank you for taking me to Pikes Peak Guys 😎

Thank you for sharing this journey with us.. Things that come easy are not worth anything compared to what we need to fight for 💪

I love Pikes Peak... was there when rod millen just missed the 10 min. Mark. A 9.37 plus all cars cross the summitt is a totally awesome individual and team win

A lot of love and attention went into putting this video together, thank you.

Congrats bro, i have been following lyfe since 2015 is good to see the rewarding side of motorsports. See ya at slb 2021

Started off scratching my head then you had me at a fan at 936 .awesome.

I am not a car type guy but this video was epic, it left me emotionally drained and then tearfull at the end, brilliant !!

Gosh darnit I did NOT need to cry today 😂😭❤️🔥

Tears already streamed.... as he clips off 9: 37.... wow... KUDO'S gentlemen. Seth

Big ups team, been an awesome journey to watch

This car looks like the most fun you could have driving a car.

Yes Aron is the reason I found out about Pikes peak...glad to see he's still up there going after that mountain

Balls of brass bother , balls of BRASS , dude you rock !!!

I cried to.. brilliant.

fantastic production, thanks for making/documenting this.

Such a great video, you are the man Cole, so freaking proud of you! Cant wait to see you this year!

The pace and editing of this video is fantastic, I was hooked the whole time.

This was such a great story, thanks for sharing you guys are fricking awesome!

Love it - what a great story!!!!! Well done everyone involved.

The legendary voice of LeMans radio, John Hindhaugh makes this that much more epic. I know this video is old but well done guys...Well Done!!

And consider that in the 1920s it was won on dirt roads with an 18 minute time!

I just found this holy what did I just witness 🤯 amazing work guys!

Lets go Aaron, and lets go team! Just baddass people all the way around!

Absolutely incredible work! That’s all I can say. Just spectacular 🔥

amazing coverage and awesome moments cant wait to see yall in the future! much love and be safe

I have been having an absolute blast with this car in Forza horizon 5, to be honest, I assumed it was a pretend toy, like some of the hotwheels cars they have added in the game, but no, youtube offered me this video and I'm like wait...this is a real vehicle? Outstanding! It would be a dream to have a rip in the real one, man it's fun in the game, especially on the hotwheels tracks doing loops and spirals. :)

Passion exudes from his pores and what an incredible sight to see it and to hear you tell your story. Congrats

Couple years late watching this.... Awesome video. Congrats on your accomplishments!!

Your guys production value is great! It looks like a tv show. You guys deserve more exposure!

Incredible team , amazing everyone

Subbed, Dunno How I ended up in you channel, but glad I went down the YT rabbit hole and found it ! Good stuff, love watching Karts ! Epic run as well and congrats !

All I can say is from the bottom of my heart Wow!! Congrats!!!!! 🎉

This is one of the most down to earth racing teams I have ever seen haha. Really good documentary and performance!!!

you guys make epic content. production quality, vision, drama and insight are all first rate.

Pikes Peak holds for me, the same sort of attraction like Isle of Man TT, Paris - Dakar and similar adventures…..so much so this film has got you a new subscriber! 👍 On a side note, if they set this time using a manual shifter, imagine how much faster they would be with a reliable paddle-shift setup….me thinks there is much much more to come 😮😎🙏👏👏👏🤟

Isle of man is the most dangerous in my book.

Well done you guys i loved every second og this video just goes to show its not the size of an engine but how it all comes together with a excellent driver

When I was stationed at Ft Carson in the late 80s I used to drive up PP all the time. There were no paved roads and no guardrails whatsoever. And yet they raced. Man, I'd like to race Kart up that beast.

OMG this is such great storytelling! Almost had me misty eyed I aint gon lie...

Since it's all paved, I no longer consider it "pikes peak". Just another road.

Wow a 9.37 that's ridiculous good... hat's off too the crew an the driver's

I think Grand Turismo put Pikes Peak on the map for none racers back in the day. Now everybody knows of the legendary track. Must be a true riot to actually drive it in RL.

Triumphant. Respect

I drive like this in Forza - but I also crash half the time, these guys are insanely skilled.

What a great story, congratulations.

The best and record... French 🙏

Great vid! fantastic effort you guys. So well done.

I think the Isle of Man might object to the title of “ most dangerous racetrack “. Great production and video.

Congrats!

Cool car and cool video too! Best of luck for the future!

Loved this video and story! I've been watching Pike Peak races since the coyotes dominated the sport. Michelle Mouton's run was awe inspiring, but this was the best of all. Congratulations on a sub 10 minute run up the mountain! Okay, time to grind some powder coat off some mating surfaces.......

It's a terrifying course. Driving at normal speeds looks like a buzz, let alone at racing pace.

The mighty Busa power strikes again...

Mad respect. congrats. I have done some endurance racing and just finishing is a bloody job. So happy for you guys. and the crew who helped you get there. congrats..........

Is there a build video on the kart ? Love to see what goes into these and the whole process !!!!

Awesome! Just awesome.

Wow man! I'm so glad I've come across your awesome video, I have dreamed about a car just like this every since I was a kid watching TV biggies race and thought if only I had the money and expertise to build something like that it would be awe inspiring. Congratulations to you and your team, these Sierra RX3 cars are the pinnacle of rally cross cars, off-road, bitumen, anything, I'm sure even in ice they'd rip it up. I've shared your videos and thank you for what you've done. I've been watching Aaron Kaufman for years. I wish we could get them in Australia and love to test drive these. Much better than what's currently on the market such as Can-Am racing ATVs and Yamaha YXZ1000R. Cheers from Down Under 🇦🇺🇺🇲

I'd bet money there are at least 3 corners where you can make at least 2 sec improvement. Job well-done.

Awesome!!!

The moment they said 1300cc motor I knew exactly what it was lol

Need one on the road as my daily driver.

Pikes peak hill is awesome. My uncle and cousins who live in Manitou raced it for years. Shout out uncle Ougie Rip 6/18/22

Awesome💯

Buggy Racing Looks like Grass Roots Racing at its Best. How Much Does it Cost to Build One? Were these Builds Born of The True Pursuit of Speed or a Distinct Lack of Sponsorship for Bigger, More Complex Machines Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic? 30min in, Fresh from Secrets of Speed, Couldn't You Extend the Life of the Turbo Busa Engine with Water-Methanol Injection? Only Problem is Where to Put it... On the Roof? Inside the Roll Cage Maybe?

I believe that black thing on the road right before the smoke of the car caused a timing error and lost timing causing the smoke… but it’s crazy how a small pot hole of imperfections on the road can cause complete engine malfunction

WOW!

Best damn video i saw all week!!!

one day ,when im older, im going to bring my 4.0L mustang and crush the slowest record on Pikes Peak 😂

Hell yeah brother congrats Charlie Western PA 👍

great video wonderful production.

Great accomplishment by a momma’s boy.

The one thing i learned about the peak tires are everything . Most run a endurance tire not me i run super sticky and wore out by the time you hit the top .

amazing

Great video and top quality production

I am NEVER doing Pikes Peak; I would SH &% myself. But one of these race buggies on a 'normal' twisty track would be awesome!

Would be nice to see an unedited version...

I LOVE THESE DIY CARS THEY ARE THE SPORTING FUTURE FOR US NORMAL PEOPLE WHO WAS NOT BORN RICH, HOW MANY OF US COULD AFFORD A F1 OR RALLY CAR? AND YOU COULD PUT ANY ENGINE YOU WANT AS LONG AS IT FIT THE CAR

19:00 it was not the brakes that failed. It was the wheel bearing.

LOL at 29:36 when the animal runs across the road right in front of the car.

So was that a squirrel or a groundhog at 29:36 or what?

Fairly certain Sierra just became THE most popular boutique manufacturer in road racing.

I need to start tucking my ears
