Rhys Millen returns to the 89th Pikes Peak International Hill Climb to complete the job he set out last year: shattering the record in the "Unlimited" class. Although the current record still stands at 10:01.408, Rhys hopes that modifications and upgrades to the Red Bull-sponsored Hyundai Genesis RMR PM580, along with new tarmac portions of the course, will allow him to to claim victory at this year's race and finally break the 10-minute barrier.
While Rhys Millen attempts to break the overall course record, his father will compete in the Time Attack 2WD class in an updated version of the Red Bull Hyundai Genesis Coupe that Rhys set a class record in two years ago. With five overall race wins and eight class wins under his belt, Rod Millen is considered Pikes Peak royalty by many. With a history of successes at that race, both competitors hope to break records in their respective classes and further cement the Millen family name in the lore and history of Pikes Peak.

I love this car and how it looks without its body shell, I love how it looks with the bodyparts, how it resembles a lemans prototype more than ever before. way to go red bull, best of luck to the millen duo!
Sounds so awesome!!
Seeing that beast drive around without the body panels was insanely cool.
Can't wait to see Rod's result. All the best for your attempt too Rhys!
What a best of a car :) , Red Bull is relly keeping it on top in almost every sport. Good drivers.
Pikes Peak is going to AWESOME this year....6 Unlimited cars!!!!
I can't wait to watch that beast fly up the mountain!
amazing quality!
awesome sound
Ill be there. Good luck
Best of luck this year. Hope the run won't get messed up like last year....
love the drifting!
Good to see him shifting with his left hand like a true KIWI :-)
thank you for listening ;)
That Red Bull Pikes peak ca is bloody quick. its almost quick as the Red Bull Renault F1 car!!! Wooohooo
I have to admit, this video is alot more exciting than the super-ultra-hardcore-urban-extreme golf one.
THE WHISTLES GO WHOOO WHOOO
For those who don't live in USA, Pikes Peak is 14,000 feet mountain in Colorado.
I know its not set up for such a thing, but just for fun, I would be really interested to know what this car would run at a track like ButtonWillow cw13...
MANUAL RULES!!! Thats real shifting!
In honor of Rod Millen coming back to Pikes Peak, they should rip up the asphalt and make the whole course dirt again. Screw the Sierra Club.
Seriously though, Rhys is a great guy, and I hope he is the one to break the 10 minute barrier in what has to be the coolest looking unlimited car to run the peak. I'm coordinating plans with my dad right now to get ready for next Wednesday's practice.
@ivojiggy Rod millens record held for many years on dirt and did a 10:04:06 , and this year he was onli 30 sec dwn from monsta in a production class drift car
@fueldragster I'm actually the only person that caught Millen's spin on camera. He spun at The Sump. Yes, I know these things. I can also tell you that the Hyundai team set the car up for mostly asphalt as opposed to dirt, which is why he spun and missed a few gears.
I've been going Pikes Peak for years, and I can say with certainty that Tajima is better than Millen. Tajima reached the summit last year with a flat rear tire. You didn't hear about it because he was too busy winning.
ooooo the sound at 2:15 løøøøv it!
Dream JOB !
@Bluestorm5 You mean 4267 meters right?
Song name at 2.52? ;) Gooooo Rhys!!
thats just peak man...
Where can i watch this race?
$20 on Blue
whats the name of this song
That isn't a "good old faithful manual transmission". It is still a sequential. It just doesn't have the paddle shift.
1:05 longboard! ftw yes
I want this car on the next gran turismo game :D
how´s the name of that awesome car?
0:14 thought they would be using those trucks for a minute
rhys millen, sebastian vettel, ayrton senna, colin mcrae, mikka hakinen, lewis hamilton, richard burns, michael schumacker, all very good drivers.... anyone im missing?
@Niccr14 where?
the gearstick started on the left :P tis the right way.
Rhys the Monster awaits you....
Redbull....some of your videos, like your latest, dont work in Holland?
0:40 legend
@bboynormal
All of those cars are already in dirt 3
I wonder what its 0-60 and 0-100 times are...
why didnt they go to the guys with the redbull formula 1 team for help with the semi-automatic transmission?
@Niccr14 i dont get it
PAH. Ive driven the pm580... on dirt3 :P
@PunkFictionProdction you do realize that Millen spun last year, which is why his time was so slow
I want one.
that was 2009-2010 when they put tarmac on the road
looks like a zonda??
got some big big shoes to fill boy!
the hyandai looks like the peugeot 908 from lemans
I love how my over priced energy drink earnings go to badass things.
i want Ari and Peugeot to come back with the 405 and see what it'll do now
Suzuki tagami monster breaks the 10min barrier
@kev723iin knew i was 4gettin one
Damn, Red Bull can afford anything!
Looks awesome, but I prever a Audi S1 Pikes Peak + Walter Röhrl
fuck those cars are badass,
I Want one
The cars are badass but is it me or is the RedBull semi the fittest thing on the this vid!? =)
Pikes Peak is so filthy.
@crv26 looks freakin similar
suzuki sx4 is still the BOWSS!
240p, i' m a real fan!!
@QuertrGTRR it will be next year then pikes peak will be 100% asphalt
Bring the Red Bull X2010! XD
oh ya go reel fast and turrn left
Hyundai should make an LMP car
must be nice
@TheMoonder wow u know ur stuff dont ya...do u really think that some random could get to take this interview with rhys millen? look at some of redbulls vids and just think about something be for u type it.
when i saw that paddle shifter, im like whaaaaa??? REAL MEN USE M/TS
stop complaining u have the best job ever , i would actually pay to get that job
phh and some people say old people can't drive
I love Rhys Millen, he really is an amazing driver, but come on. Nobuhiro Tajima was over a minute faster than Millen last year. If the 10 minute barrier is going to be broken by Millen, then Tajima will just break the 9 minute barrier a few minutes later.
race this at le mans ( regarding the regulations) and i'll cheer
pikes peak record isn't broken....the old one set from rally legend walter röhrl still exsist !
Monster reset the record to under 10 mins, does Rhys just completely ignore the fact that Monster is faster when he says the tacoma is the fastest car up pikes peak? And how is hyundai ok with their car having a toyota transmission in it for the only event it is built for?
@Juste1911 beause their busy in f1 and thats not their profession
I still think this car needs more pavement on the mtn that currently exists to beat the Suzuki package.
And don't forget race day conditions dictate records. Not just what you brought to the event.
he's on a longboard
wish my dad was a race car driver and hand down everything to me.
Suzuki's cars are still cooler, not sure why but, if they brought back the ESCUDO from 1998 that would be epic, they would have to change the setup some but keep the 1,000 hp and the 800 kilogram weight
i can do everything they do in those cars while im in the drivers ed car
@AllOutCrazyShit apperently people dont think hes weird because 16 people liked his comment
I Love use this car in Dirt3 !
Is that a Le Mans car.
(: longboard 1:03
1:03 haha longboarder
@redbull 50$ on a porsche!
I feel like Hyundai is not the right sponsor for him.
most race cars with sequentially shifted style of transmissions arent made by the "manufacturers".. a lot of times they are made by companies like xtrac, who makes transmissions and differentials for cars from everything like F1 to rally cars to le mans to GT cars... most likely the only part of the old toyota that was actually toyota, was most likely the engine block.... being a purpose built race car, most of it was fabricated in house and just resembled a tacoma
just sayin
$25 on red
@Schwantz34
Uuh, a guy that won the PP once? His time has been beaten the next year with worse conditions! So whats special? Nothing!
top crack
le mans + rally = ^^^^
@SEAN94BODOMCHILD 4 bucks for some carbonated water with a lot of sugar and some other shit? profit margin, pal. they cant lose, the more shit they sponsor, the more they sell. but good on them for being involved anyway. big fan of the red bull f1 team.
:)
lol
hahahah
