Scion Tuner Challenge: Team VCMC FR-S' Journey to Pikes Peak Hill Climb

Hey everyone;

In Canada, we had a Scion Tuner Challenge for the FR-S and one of the teams in the competition, took time out of their hectic schedule to take the car to Pikes Peak.

I put a video together of their journey to the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb where they lined up with some driving greats like Rhys Millen, Sebastien Loeb, Romain Dumas, among many others. Watch them as they battle adversity, experience elation, and face heartbreak.

Please let me know what you think!

What does it take to get involved in something like this? I found the registration page and it says you must have a prior race history for your application to be considered. Anyone have any insight?
