Suzuki XL-7 Pikes Peak Hill Climb Record Setter

Hi all,

Yes another race car, from the resident race junkie.

Dateline Pikes Peak, July 21, 2007

Suzuki's Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima has broken the previous record of 10.04.06, set by Rod Millen, the new record is 10.01.408

Monster was driving a specially prepped XL7.





Dateline My Desk, January 10, 2008

Oniya releases a paper model of the record setter.
Oniya, a prolific designer of Deformed rally and race cars, has released a .pdo version of the Suzuki XL7.


There is a second version, only the skins for the Race To The Sky version.

You can get the model here >>>> http://oniya.ld.infoseek.co.jp/pepakura/suzuki.htm

Enjoy

Good find! For those video game junkies out there, the 'Race to the Sky' version is prominent in the Gran Turismo series of racing games.
