Hillclimbing is INSANE, Look at this - [turbo noises] - it’s a homemade, 1000 horsepower, turbocharged, lightweight rocket ship. And it’s what Hill Climb Racing is all about.

Engineers building incredible machines, in their sheds - without corporate backing and SENDING IT up a hill - all to see who’s fastest.

And what’s better - is that there are almost NO RULES. So engineers can get as crazy as they like - so we’re going to go over our ten favourite hill climb cars - and tell you why they are awesome.
Hill climbing happens all over the world on stages like Prescott Hill in England which is less than a mile, to places like Pikes Peak, which is over 12 and finishes in the clouds at over 14,000 feet above sea level.

The tight corners, acceleration zones and incline means that the power-to-weight ratio and downforce are key. Expect cars with multiple turbos and MASSIVE wings to give them the boost and agility to set a good time.

This means that Hill Climbing creates some of the craziest-looking and most powerful cars in the world.

What happens when you let engineers have completely free reign? No regulations, no power limits and whatever mad aero design they can come up with.

Well, you get crazy-powerful, high-downforce - monsters.

This is exactly what they do in the Unlimited Division at Pikes Peak, where we get to see how they stack up against each other, as well as how it can go wrong.

Home-designed and made machines can compete against big-money international car companies to race to the top of the 14,000-foot mountain. A course with no run-off, no barriers, standard road-tarmac and 2000 foot drops.
