Nobuhiro 'Monster' Tajima: Three Time Pikes Peak Champion

At the recent Pikes Peak race, Nobuhiro 'Monster' Tajima managed to take the title for the third consecutive year.

Using a "very heavily modified" Suzuki XL7 , the 58-year-old Suzuki WRC monster managed to clock a time of 10-minutes and 18.250-seconds on the 12.5-mile course. None of the other competitors even broke the 11-minutemark making Tajima truly the King of the Mountain.

Unfortunately, due to slippery conditions on the tarmac and dirt, Tajima failed to complete the course in less than 10 minutes, losing the $25,000 prize offered by organizers. In fact, the conditions were so bad that the race was red-flagged a total of 14 times and several competitors had to be hospitalized.

"The car and tires were perfect, and I couldn't have driven the hill any faster," said Tajima.

"But the conditions were very challenging, especially at the top of the course, so I could never have broken 10 minutes. But I'll be back next year..."

With a course record of just a second off the 10-minute barrier, Tajima might just pull it off next time when the conditions are right.

Yeah. I  don't know what percentage of actual XL7 bits are left in this magnificent beast, but if someone told me 10% or smaller I wouldn't call them a liar.

If it has 2% parts commonality, I'd be shocked.

Thanks for mentioning the second oldest race in the US.

There is talk that it may not last much longer.

And he doesn't even discuss the never-ending battles with the Sierra Club (forced paving half the course).

The rectangle shaped face needs links of londonjewelry that adds width and camouflages the length of the face. A highchoker reduces the length of the face, particularly if the neck is toolong. In addition, a 16¡å or 18¡å necklace that ends in a ¡°U¡±flatters this face. Long hair and narrow links of london is perfect match which can impress others as a fair lady. Fancy clothes coordinating links of london with slight tint could be better.

Im 18 years old and as a struggling student who enjoys racing UGG
Boots
ultra short Le its becoming extremely expensive and harder to
attend and enjoy a days racing.
Sure a student with a part time UGGS upside job would
have to save for a few weeks to consider attending a raceday as expensive as
this. I see that
Fairyhouse are racing on the 19th of this month and are charging UGGS
whitely boots 5e entry fee.
Its up to other tracks to follow suit and use some initiative to offer better
value to the normal racegoer….Pretty good air jordan post. I just found your site and wanted to say that I have really
enjoyed browsing your Bailey Button UGG Boots posts. In any case I’ll be
subscribing to your blog and I hope you nike sb post again soon!
