I was even more impressed with the drives after I drove up the hill in our old Cherokee. There are a bunch of places that can ruin your whole day of you get them wrong! I would love to race it somday, but I know my limitations!!!

yeah seeing as I'll likely never race it I'll probably try and get on the power tour and drive my dart up the mountain while on the way there.

Yeah, that would be very cool. Wonder if Ralph Beckman and the 68 Rallye Barracuda have ever done it?

I noticed that the overall record was broken this year by a Japanese WRC driver and team. ALMOST under 10 min...
