I have an odd request of my fellow Prime members...
We are preparing for our first ever bid at Pikes Peak International Hillclimb on July 8th, 2012. We have never seen the mountain in-person, and as such, will be flying to Colorado Springs to meet some fellow racers on April 27th.
Is there a chance I could rent/borrow someone's NSX for thre days on April 27th/28th/29th to run Recce on the Pikes Peak Highway? The highway is FULLY paved so no issues with dirt!!! Also, as registered racers, we MUST ADHERE TO SPEED LIMITS, or risk being disqualified from competition. This will be slow-paced pleasure cruise. The NSX will also be garage-kept between days.
I have the utmost respect for other peoples property, as it's what I do for a living. There are years of my great reputation documented on here.
The NSX can be modded, or completely stock. I would like to drive the highway in an NSX to have a general "feel" of the road with as close of a tool to our PPIHC NSX as possible. Heck, if it's an AEM-equipped car, I would be glad to tune it as a token of gratitude!
I hope this post isn't out of bounds, as it feels "uncomfortable" to ask this of my fellow members. Our current plan is to run the mountain in a BMW, so it's not going to be hurtful in any way if we are turned away.
Thank you for your time...please Email or PM if you'd rather not go public.
