Never seen that technique before!
I saw this at Battery Park today. I really want one. Hopefully I see it around tomorrow, I'd love to talk to the owner. The license plates are French, and you can't see it too well but there are motorcycles hanging off the back.

I’ve been there, that's the Gross Glockner pass. All the auto company’s use it for altitude and gradient testing. I spent days driving Escorts up there with fully loaded trailers logging cooling temps. Everyone was there, they all rent space from local gas stations or dealers for working on cars. On the wall were 'trophies' of plastic wheel covers that were melted and burned from cooked brakes. Everyone had to hold a constant speed up the hill (Not easy when you have tour busses and sight seers all over the place), but the runs down the hill were a free for all with different manufactures getting into impromptu races down the hill. That hill killed a lot of brake pads :)
