[@rjung_ch]

Golf Mk2 was crazy!

[@joe125ful]

Huracan GT3 its just soo smooth car to watch.

[@KyleKnoblauch]

You already know 😎 RUPERT!

[@asquatch7438]

50% of the cars are just standard GT3 or TCR car 😂

[@joe125ful]

@@asquatch7438Yeah but they are differently fast and showing what real race car vs home made one can do.

[@cyaanghoost8233]

That shot with the speedo is so cool

[@HillClimbMonsters]

That was the goal ;)

[@joe125ful]

Agreed.

[@simongruber8366]

Yeah, even without the speedo, the angle was perfect, really good for the sense of speed and for getting an insight on the different lines. Also, that biturbo porsche sounds like a jet in that shot

[@ferris5358]

Still can't get enough of that 997's sound, truly incredible

[@joe125ful]

Good for you.

[@stoneeh]

Man, those GT3-R. The 991.2 is so beautiful, and the 997 so raw. Wonderful. Can't wait to see and hear the 992 R Rennsport in Hillclimb.

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Can´t wait to try it out either...

[@RJ6AV6]

That Skoda Fabia CT is wild 😮

[@HillClimbMonsters]

And the best is yet to come ;)

[@colmanbaldwinson9091]

This video is stacked with monsters. Love seeing the acceleration out of those steep hairpins

[@HillClimbMonsters]

As it should ;)

[@tweakiepop]

Good idea with the speed trap - gives another dimension. Can see which cars don’t have the straight line speed comparatively but must have picked up a lot in the corners and braking, etc. On a side-note, that Porsche bi-turbo looks fun to drive

[@HillClimbMonsters]

That´s the goal for sure, but we have plenty of plans for it in the future, you´ll see ;)

[@ryanchock3777]

Love the Seat's Anti lag and the Mitsubishi Evo sounded great too

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Maybe we need to make a single feature video for it in the near future...

[@TonttuUkkeli-ht3en]

Speed camera is just great🤘 Thanks so mutch making these videos 🙏 Also if i may, if u can ad top 10-20 overal championship points etc at the end. That would been super nice

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Thanks for enjoying our work!! We´ll be adding more and more info as time goes on ;)

[@olspanner]

Subaru, Golf, Skoda & Lancer were all impressive. But NOTHING compares to the sound of a Flat 6 N/A Porsche at full chat!

[@LafalletteH]

That Seat León is Sick

[@HillClimbMonsters]

More of it coming soon...

[@joe125ful]

You must love Huracan GT3 V10 sound! Ewery person need hear it in reality. 2:51 Iam always amazed how Real race cars are soo smooth and accurate on track. 3:06 Ah! Loving rear wheel up. Its like:No i really no need all wheels sometimes:)

[@dzulumat6564]

My personal favourite Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 7 EGMO & Lancia Delta Integrale Evo, handsome+competitif race car

[@DTreats]

The evo took 14 seconds off the huracans time 😅

[@JoshuaHolstein]

More weight and less power than the Evo 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@HillClimbMonsters]

The magic of hillclimb racing...

[@lukerogers78]

Every single one of these cars was a monster.

[@HillClimbMonsters]

As they should ;)

[@oliverstillger1641]

Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍 wow, the camera view, the sound the dates of the cars, i really like it and it's really fascinating to watch

[@VoyagerLife826]

Igor Stefanovski with that Hyundai is no joke getting same times as some serious other hillclimb monsters, incredible

[@djtekrider]

Man that shot a 14:40 is so brutal!

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Yeah, more of tha little Skoda coming soon ;)

[@sodazman]

Evo for the win, what a weapon!

[@gafrers]

Delta and Golf FTW

[@NLRevZ]

Man, some of those engines sure made some heavenly thunderous noises! Also, it seems the Clio E1 was hitting boost cut quite badly during the run.. That's a shame.

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Very true, in normal conditions the clio would have placed on the Top 5 according to our math...

[@NJRacer623]

It's crazy that that little Mk2 Golf has 840 hp. What an absolute monster!

[@eestlanebootysweat7572]

very little left of the factory mk2 xD

[@NJRacer623]

Haha yeah for sure. But it's still insane that they fit that much power in such a little car. That is a true pocket rocket right there.@@eestlanebootysweat7572

[@HillClimbMonsters]

And it had problems during this race...

[@blastmanutz7798]

That's an EA888 inside. It makes sense to actually get the 888 and stick it into a light chassis - mk2 for example. Much lighter than the newest Golf GTIs for sure. Result = rocket.

[@TheStigsSimcousin]

That Fabia is insane,I was lucky enough to see it. Awsome vid,didnt knew the hp,I was only guessing

[@marcinw.37]

Golf 2 insane 😮

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Even with engine issues in this event...

[@BMWRay62]

the winner 234kmh speed!!!!!😃⚡⚡⚡✈

[@whoeveriam0iam14222]

haha I was waiting for some sort of Lancer to take the top spot and there it is XD

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Yeah, the top Evo units in European Hillclimb Racing are hard to beat...

[@nicola7809]

Miglior video del 2023 !!! 💙Subaru Reinhold Taus 👍🏻🔝

Grazie Mille!!

[@racerdaveracerdave]

Hard to beat the sound of the Lambo V10

[@HillClimbMonsters]

As far as NA machinery goes, it ranks high for sure...

[@sampilar9445]

[@joseluis5010]

Maravillos vehículo sobre todo 911

[@ginodelavega752]

Thanks to all !

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Much appreciated!

[@Pickchore]

A RR car which is also NA in second place is testimony to how amazing Porsche is.

[@HillClimbMonsters]

And tuned by Sebastien Loeb Racing ;)

[@videogamesworld420]

👍🏻

[@michaelprince5543]

This is the vr6 wanna c

[@delbertrobinson4139]

This one was about chassis, braking and bravery. The top guys went past the speed gun upwards of 210kph... including that TCR Hyundai...OMG!!! Is that guy aware of his brake pedal???

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Mr. Stefanovski is another breed of racing driver ;)

[@datdudeinred]

They should have named that Lancia "1080p". 😎

[@ZuhlJin]

The 993 GT2 will always be the winner for me.

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Rupert Schwaiger at 74 still a fan favourite ;)

[@yahyamelihayaksz1174]

İs photoshoots available?

[@cahyohape4524]

Third car, hyundai i30 TCR. How can the rims change color from orange to black and orange again 😅

[@C-M-E]

While it's not super ideal, it is impressive that some of these chassis are so tight that they pick up the inside wheel on every corner. The Audi in particular was three wheeling half the course!

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Always adds an extra level of intensity to the footage for sure ;)

[@robo6129]

Was that the AWD kicking in on the RS3 at 3:50?

[@asquatch7438]

It is FWD bruh...

[@aikumaDK]

It gotta be surreal for those with custom monsters to park next to fully fledged FIA-compliant(?) GT3 cars.

[@HillClimbMonsters]

And beat them handily!!

[@jihadjoe]

God damn how is that Evo nearly 2.5s faster than the closest competition?

[@candy.r32]

PORSCHE SOUND'S! 🥰🔥🔥🔥🥰👌🏻

[@Mcali1984]

I feel like every time I watch these. It’s an Evo completely destroying.

[@tomhanxs]

Ngl, we are all imagining like we were the one who's driving them all😅

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Can´t help it ;)

[@user-cy3mu9uo5h]

To See, Evo in the end ,is very suddenly

[@isdos]

I want to see Petter Solberg with that Polo with better gear ratio in these. Man was absolutely flying with that thing.

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Won´t be easy to get VW Motorsport to race that thing again but we´ll do our best...

[@leaovegano4232]

It's crazy how the weight and power ratio in this race doesn't matter, since cars with 500 horsepower and 1000 kilos have a better time than cars with 800 horsepower and 700 kilos, this event is insane

[@Miester7]

Downforce and brake setup differs hugely. But yeah it defies physics!

[@0SLiDeR0]

Most heavier cars have a bigger engine, have more power and torque lower in the rev range. They have a much broader power band. Lighter cars usually have smaller engines. The high horsepower ones usually have a very small power band, high in the rev range. They maybe lighter and have more power but it's harder to harness that power.

[@HillClimbMonsters]

Driving to the limit on an hillclimb like Ilirska is quite challenging and driver mod becomes crucial. And yeah, an agile chassis capable of putting all power down also gives an advantage here...

[@itisjustacomment]

Tire size matters, notice how the 550 bhp had a much wider track and tire size.

[@deemagico]

pa nima tistle clio 670 konjev no...?

[@colmanbaldwinson9091]

Why is the white RS3 fwd?

[@NJRacer623]

I was literally just about to ask why the RS3 doesn't have quattro? I'm guessing because FWD makes the car lighter? But then it also loses some of it's handling. I don't know.

[@colmanbaldwinson9091]

@@NJRacer623 my guess was that its a spec car for a fwd racing series, I know there is an RS3 in IMSA's TCR class that is fwd

[@NJRacer623]

Yeah true, it could definitely be race spec.@@colmanbaldwinson9091

[@edugj23]

It's a TCR with some minor modifications.

[@bapr3887]

@@NJRacer623 AWD is banned in touring car series since mighty Audi A4 B5 stw quattro domination in 90s. Shame, but thats what it is...

Part of the job :P

[@matthewjones3806]

I feel like that Seat should be way higher than it is did it have issues

Yes it did. By our math, with everything going normal it would have placed near the Top 5
