The mountain course is pretty tight and twisty and obviously there is no run off at all, so it's not exactly ideal for large supercars like the Veyron or even LMPs. I reckon doing it in a Caterham or Atom would be a lot of fun, but you'd have to be supremely talented to put in a remotely quick lap.

I reckon that's a good shout actually. Presume any 'Hypercar', LMP or Formula car would not cope with the road surface, current WRC are limited on power, Group B cars that excelled on tarmac probably don't touch on the speed or agility of a Pikes Peak car (especially now it's tarmac all the way up).

But....


...weren't the 16-cyl Auto Unions from the 1930's good for 200mph? :-D
