Review - SUB-10 Minutes | Pikes Peak 2020 (Patreon)

Howdy, Patrons! Drew here. Due to some last-minute rescheduling, we've decided to push our review of Michael Fassbender's Road to Le Mans Seasons 2 and 3 to next month. For this month, Rob and I tackled a niche area of motorsport that we knew almost nothing about: hill climbs.

Thanks to Twitter follower Jonathan Craven AKA @TenaciousWii, our discussion revolves around Lyfe Motorsport's attempt at summiting Colorado's notorious Pikes Peak in less than 10 minutes.

Here's a link to the 40-minute documentary on YouTube. 

As you'll hear, we learn a lot over the course of this episode about the Unsers, powder coats, and, especially, Rob Zacny.

Enjoy!
