Hello, and welcome to Pikes Peak, Colorado! Normally, the PPIHC takes place around June each year, but I just finished the map, so why wait?

Every year, several brave/crazy souls take their machines and pit their courage and skills against one of the toughest hillclimbs in the world. Legendary for the rally drivers that dominated it when half of it was gravel, ever since it was completely paved in 2012, the times have tumbled and contrary to expectations, registrations soared through the roof. Even after the utterly dominant and to many disconcertingly fast record set by Seb Loeb in 2013, with the purpose built Peugeot 208 T16, the other times continue to tumble as other competitors catch up.
But the mountain is a dangerous one, with no guard rails to stop you from plunging into the rocks, and, on occasion, to your death. Tune your machine wisely, lest you end up like our friend Jeremy Foley:
[size=85]At least he walked away with little more than a broken arm. Others have not been so fortunate.[/size]
With that preamble out of the way, let’s get ready to race! I’ve drawn up rules for the four main classes (plus a couple of subclasses) that regularly run for four-wheeled vehicles. In similar style to the real PPIHC, if there are less than six entries for any particular class, that class will be disbanded. Instead, I will merge the entries from that class into the next most appropriate class with the competitor’s consent.
As you can see, the rules for the Open Class and the Unlimited Class have strong parallels to the usual leaderboards, because this is how we’re going to kick the leaderboard off! The TAPC and TATC classes have rules that are derived from the PPIHC manual.

You can’t, entries are now closed wahahahahahahaha!
