R racer beat set a new overall Pikes Peak International Hill Climb record, racing up to 14,115 feet in a stunningly quick 7:57.148. The previous overall record of 8:13.878 was set in 2013 by Sébastien Loeb in a Peugeot 208 T16. > This is seriously impressive, though remember, the record will not be officially official until Monday, June 25th, when final times are announced.
