yes! the pennsylvania hillclimb association's events are alive and well.
there are far fewer events today than in the 60's. but the hills are as
challenging as they were 40 years ago. unfortunatly "hillclimb history"
seems to appeal to a very small crowd as not many people remember the good
old days of hillclimbing. evryone seems to have recolections of watkins
glen , cumberland gap, vineland, marlboro, (to name just a few) and going
road racing. hillclimbing in the east hosted many now famous drivers of
the 50's-60's and 70's. but yet hillclimbing recieves very little
recognition.
btw? who's car was it and what type of car do you posess?
chuck.
this is why i'm trying to collect the remaining collections of hillclimb
information. to preserve the past for the sake of the future.
