Rhys Millen took some time to chat with us just prior to his Hyundai Genesis Race Car entering the pre-race technical inspection in Colorado Springs for this year’s running of the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.

Rhys and his crew had just driven non-stop from their weekend of competition in the Formula D Drifting event in Las Vegas, to compete at the famous Pikes Peak event.

His Hyundai Genesis Race Car that he is piloting up the hill this year is the same car that he competes with in the Formula D Drifting events.

Come along with us as we learn about Rhys Millen.

Chad DiMarco of Sube Sports talks with the Online Motorsport Show – Off Road But On Track.

Chad is a five time consecutive US National Pro Rally Champion – and was a factory driver for Subaru for 10 years.

The last time that I had a real chance to speak with Chad Dimarco – was back a number of years ago at the Laguna Seca Race Track.

It was an event for the Northern California Automotive Journalists.  [The name of the group/association slips my mind at the moment – maybe someone can comment in the correct name for this group.]

Chad and I both spent the day taking journalists for hot laps around the Laguna Seca Road Course in our respective “Hot Rods”.  He was in a Subaru  – “of course”  – and I was in a prototype “hopped up” Lexus GS 430.

It was a great day at the track – chasing each other and giving “ear to ear grins” to the wide eyed journalists who chose to go “for a ride”.

It was also great to catch up with Chad and to get the opportunity to ask him “some quick questions”.  We hope you enjoy it too.
