132. One of the oldest Motorsports - changed little since 1905
There are several regional series like us - Pennsylvania, Colorado, and the Northwest that we know of - and some notable stand-alone events. Mt. Washington ran 1990-1999, has had a couple other heydays (like the 1905 event). Pikes Peak, Colorado (with a relationship to CHCA like ours with Mt.Washington), Virginia City, NV, http://www.crowmountainhillclimb.org/, Rumman, Jordan
http://forums.evolutionm.net/motor-sports/451999-rumman-hillclimb-2009-jordan-image-intensive.html - the Sirroco/Audi/Buick hybrid was originally built for our series.
There is a lot of crossover to rallying, and some to roadracing & oval track.
England has several short hillclimbs (driveways to castles), and there some Europaen events we've found on YouTube, as well as Australia and NZ.
We, and most series like us - have little accomidation for spectators - but are always looking for voulunteers for flagging/communications. Communal lunch and beer after are the usual perks.
