PROLOGUE:
The 2012 Goodwood Festival of Speed is looking to host over 100 top drivers, at its famous Park.

An American based treat will be in the form of a class of famous Pikes Peak hillclimb cars and drivers. The Pikes Peak Hillclimb based in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado.

For reference, the Hillclimb which these specialized cars run, is 12.42 mi (19.99 km) over 156 turns, climbing 4,720 feet (1,440 m) from the start on Pikes Peak Highway, to the finish at 14,110 feet (4,300 m), on grades averaging 7%. The track (highway) is both paved and gravel. (It will soon be paved the full distance). 2011 over all record is 9:51.278 minutes.

Rod Millen will bring his 900 bhp Toyota Tacoma Pikes Peak special, and a fearsome Peugeot 405 T16 GR which conquered the American hillclimb in 1988. A 1979 AMC Spirit Pikes Peak racer and a Donner-Chevrolet DD3, rare sight in the UK, will be available.

One of the Big Boys from Pikes Peak is the multiple record-holding Kenworth T2000 truck, making its Festival of Speed debut, with truck-racing legend Bruce Canepa. This thundering 5.2, 16-litre, 1,500 bhp monster with its 4000ft/lbs torque will provide plenty of smoke-belching madness and monstrous burnouts.

Other forms of American motor sport will also be represented at the Festival, with a diverse range of competition machinery due to tackle the 1.16-mile Goodwood hillclimb. These fearsome vehicles will include the

Additional American imports are the 1962 Thompson-Buick Special and 1969 Eagle-Offenhauser from the Indy 500. A McLaren-Chevrolet M6B 'McLeagle', Ty Dillon's 2011 Chevrolet Silverado, and wild man Jesse James add to the show.

Most all F1 teams have signed on for this years event. They include Red Bull Racing, Scuderia Ferrari, Vodafone McLaren Racing, Lotus, Mercedes GP, Williams and Caterham.

The drivers signed on are Sebastian Vettel, Jenson Button and Lewis Hamilton. Mark Webber, Nico Rosberg, Bruno Senna, Christian Horner and Adrian Newey. They will run the 1.16-mile Goodwood hillclimb for a good show.

For the rally, current top name drivers Juho Hanninen, Thierry Neuville, Jan Kopecky and Skoda UK Motorsport's 2011 IRC Champion, Andreas Mikkelsen, will challenge the Forest Rally Stage.

Also running the rally stage are Juha Kankkunen, Rauno Aaltonen, Jimmy McRae, Hannu Mikkola and Russell Brookes the cars that made them famous. TV stars James Martin and Jesse James will also be in action on the Forest Rally Stage.
