52/70, the Fiesta doing the doggie on a fire hydrant imitation, is probably my third favorite after the SuperSmart and the Cortina. There were lots of Loti there!
RossD, the ones I have been to here in the Southeast are around 2 miles long.

The one in Prescot is 1127 yards long and has about 200 ft of rise. Many English hilclimbs are very short with little rise. Nick

I read about said trucklet in a UK VW mag several months back. It's way overbuilt with hillclimb and track days in mind. Specs include the monstrous 'cage, heaps of custom homemade carbon bits (think: roof skin, etc.), and a hot Porsche flat six poking up through the bed.

In Maryland we had to get a state politician on board to get a law changed so we could have Polish Mountain...

Holy Cow! I think #9 is an old Lotus 70!
And some early Porsche goodness in #13. Nice to see not all 550s are gathering dust at museums.

Looks a bit like a Ginetta, but I'm not sure.
