I did that back in 93 with a 280z fun hill. The hairpins are great then the jump at the top. Tricky. Too bad they stopped the Montage hill climb after a few years. That was fast.

When you said hill climb, the first thing that came to my mind was a vertical dirt hill, lol - I was waiting to see a Mustang with Super Swampers on it .... toothy

That looks like a blast!! That's exactly how I drove on public streets as a teenager. :D

Can tell that's not in MA. All the treehuggers would be crying up a storm. They managed to run the Summer Nationals out of Worcester. Brought millions into that cesspit too. Was my only reason for ever crossing the city line .. but I digress. Held it there for 20+ years, then the crybabies won. :x

Nice~! Yeah, I get what your saying about Dirt Hill climbing with a vehicle. LOL

We have a couple good hills close to here in Avoca and Poags Holes up by Dansville for Motorcycle Hill climbing. those are crazy.
We have a Mud Fest locally with 4x4 trucks. (not below, but similiar).

This is my local mechanic with his toy. An older Dodge with a cummings turbo diesel now!
