## Resource

Racing FIVE Cars up America’s Most Brutal Mountain with Betim Berisha and Steven Wetterau This week we’re trying out something brand new: a Very Vehicular Showcase: PIKES PEAK SPECIAL Episode with Betim Berisha (of BBi Autosport) and Steve Wetterau ! It’s a bit of an experiment but we wanted to take the time to explore a subject in a more involved way, bringing you closer to the action with more footage and images, and what better to kick off with than the mysticism of the Brutal Mountain itself: Pikes Peak International Hill Climb – the ‘Race to the Clouds! Our guests this week have done battle at the mountain for several years and faced unimaginable challenges, but this year… they’re not going back? Stay tuned as they explain it all.
