Chimney Rock (NC) Hillclimb, circa 1990.

I really wish they would bring this back to the mountains. I was ten years old and stood in turn four and watch them race round those curves. It was truly a life long memory. Thanks so much for this video.

+SS-50-CAL 3232 , Our new place is about two hours west from Chimney Rock. We run in Robbinsville now. They're close to US 129 ("Tail of The Dragon"), and are delighted to have us, since so much of their commerce now is from gearhead tourism. I actually saw 110 race gas for sale at a 'quick-store' a couple of times! If you're close, come see us. This place has a *lot* more sweepers, though.

This really brought back some good memories. I ran the Hillclimb in 1984-1986. Terry Housr

The gearing sounds kinda off on this particular car, like it's always in a way too tall range, doesn't sound like the motor is running around peak RPM range. I'm not sure what kind of car this is, it sounds like a 6 cylinder engine. Fun race, the recent disaster and devastation from Helene made me wonder what kind of shape and condition these roads and trails are now.
