Jeff Zwart, who recently smashed the Time Attack class record for climbing Pikes Peak with his Luminox Watches Porsche 911 GT3 Cup race car, is also a noted commercial film director, so it is not surprising that he has spectacular high definition video of his historic run, including helicopter and in-car shots along the steep and dangerous route accompanied by full stereo sound.
Jeff Zwart won the class for two-wheel drive, production-based race cars at the 88th Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in Colorado (27 June) at the wheel of a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup. Shattering the old record by 38 seconds, Zwart was clearly the fastest production car pilot, bringing home sixth overall behind specially-designed race cars. The surface of the almost 20 kilometre route up to the 4.301 metre summit of Pikes Peak consists of half asphalt and half gravel.
