Acura will campaign the largest collection of competitive entries in the brand’s history in the 97th running of The Broadmoor #pikespeak International Hill Climb on June 30. #acura is distinct from its competition in taking on the "Race to the Clouds" with hand-built, homegrown cars crewed exclusively by in-house engineers. Four production-based #acura models will challenge the field across multiple race classes, piloted by four full-time engineers who work in #acura product development in Ohio. Completing the lineup is the RealTime #racing #acura #tlxgt all-wheel drive race car, driven by two-time class winner and SCCA Hall of Famer Peter Cunningham.
