COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The milestone 100th running of the Broadmoor Pikes Peak Int’l Hill Climb, brought to you by Gran Turismo will take place on Sunday, June 26, 2022.
“We anticipate unprecedented interest from manufacturers, race teams and top-tier competitors,” stated Megan Leatham, executive director. “Pikes Peak is legendary in the motorsports world, it’s a racing venue like no other. Our 100th running will be a perfect opportunity for drivers to bring their best game to Pikes Peak to cap the first 100 years of competition while ushering in a new century of racing on America’s Mountain.”
In 1916, Rea Lentz won the inaugural event in his Romano Special with a time of 20 minutes, 55.6 seconds.
Fast-forward to 2018 when France’s Romain Dumas set the current course record of 7 minutes, 57.148 seconds behind the wheel of the all-electric Volkswagen I.D. R Pikes Peak.
In addition to the competition on the mountain, race organizers will once again host Fan Fest a pre-race street festival in Colorado Springs, as well as the 2022 Pikes Peak Hill Climb Hall of Fame Induction.
