Rhys Millen has set a new world record and took the overall victory at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb yesterday. In his hillclimb-prepared Hyundai Genesis Coupe racecar he only needed 9:46.164 to make international motorsports’ most challenging ascent over 14,000 feet.
For 2012, Millen’s own race team, Rhys Millen Racing (RMR), made performance enhancements to the current world-record-setting Genesis Coupe, the very same car that set the Time Attack 2WD record last year with Rhys’ father, Rod Millen, at the wheel.
