This is the Race to the Clouds, also known as Pikes Peak Hillclimb on Assetto Corsa (mod originally from Dirt Rally). A gruelling 20km hillclimb that pushes both man and machine to their absolute limits. My Goal? To reach the top. But, that wasn’t going to be easy. Because like the absolute tit I am, I only gave myself 1 hour to complete this challenge.
As I set off on my first risky run up the ridge, things were, unsurprisingly, looking bleak from the very offset. The road was as bumpy as a teenager’s pimply face, and my stiffly setup subaru was skipping all over the road. To add to this, I had literally no idea where I was going, and trying to navigate the mountain was akin to trying to find a light switch in the dark. To make matters worse, Pikes Peak is comprised almost entirely of blind corners. And it’s about as intuitive to drive as a Apollo 11 was to get to the moon. There’s next to no indication to where the corners are going, so you really have to compromise both your speed and lines when first learning it, and truly drive on instinct.
However, despite the difficulty, this is something that I have become rather accustomed to with experience - no thanks to my subscribers incessant need for new content. I’m always driving new roads these days, and I’ve become adequate enough at driving purely on intuition alone.
Although it wasn’t going to be THAT easy. At the base of the rugged ream of Colaridian rock , the road is as flat as a pank.... of wood, relatively speaking of course. It’s not THAT dangerous just yet. But, I knew the further I scrambled my way up towards the pikes peaks' peak, it would become increasingly arduous.
I was slowly gaining confidence as we started edging closer towards the clouds, and was bonding with the Subaru rather grandly. It at least felt like it had literal tons of downforce, which meant I could really chuck it through these corners at some considerable speed, and make adjustments throughout. I was able to fully put down the power on these short straights too, and I became accustomed to the limits of the scoobies’ brakes. It was glorious, and for the time being this was an extremely entertaining drive. When you mix these bumpy straights, with both closing and opening radius corners and the perilous danger of trees and sheer cliffs to either side, it is quite an experience, especially when you’re in a car that can handle them with ease.
But, there was something niggling the back of my mind. I knew professional drivers could get up this bloated behemoth of rock in less than 6 minutes. And of course, this is literally my first time driving both this road and car. So rather conservatively, I was predicting my runs could take almost 66% longer. And with some kwik mafs, that would only give me just 6 runs. And that’s sans crashes or spins, which would surely dwindle away my time like wasted water trickling down a plug hole.
This train of though swiftly took me out of the flowstate I was gradually submerging into. It was immensely distracting. Ironically, I find I drive at my absolute best when I can just switch off and yeet cars around a course without much thought behind it. But, having the added pressure of my time limit, with the consequence of not having a video to post this week if I failed, was actually making my driving worse as the seconds drifted away from me .

What do you think of Pikes Peak? Trash or Pass? 😂
pass i have been looking forward to your vids all week keep up the good work
I hate to love it.
Crash
Ahem, Thrash.
I hate it. too much high speed straights into blind hairpins
That blind hairpin has gotten me so many times in DR. It really is a "guess I'll die" moment when you crest at almost 200kmh like 5 feet from the hairpin.
The petrol prices going up at 1:20 had me creasing 🤣
1:20 love it how the fuel price is going up like a rocket you be leaving like "I need to save my wallet"
one cant call themselves a sim racer if they haven't memorized the whole of pikes peak yet
What about green hell?
@@Cheeky_Raccoon I memorised both, but I certainly have more hours on the green hell than Pikes Peak.
I have 12,000+ KM on the Green Hell does that count?
@@mikblues_146 totally
yea, i did that in beamng lol. more recently got a wheel and i dont practice much, but i
kinda have nordschleiffe committed to memory
Yeah Dirt Rally was my first battle with this mound of pain. Good times and then eventually good times
Probably shouldn't have tried to learn it in a group b car
@@11metalfan I have Dirt Rally 2 and Pikes Peak isn't in it though, and the game engine can't handle maps this long
@@christiantaylor1495 dirt rally 1 exists...
That ominous turn @4:28 I was waiting for. I remember seeing the video of a evo just flying off that turn from understeer doing the same run. Well done vid 👏👏👏
Always really clean videos, entertaining and stuff to learn. Keep it up man hope the algorithm blesses you with hundred K views again soon
Just wanted to say thank you for helping me improve my driving skills. I've shaved loads of time from my touge runs and it has actually developed my irl skill quite a lot as well. I wasn't exactly bad to begin with but your videos really helped me hone my skills
Keep it up!
This is a great video. You use really good description terms. Nice driving TSRB :)
Literally saw evo9 fall of the cliff flashback.
"just turn lol"
Randomly stumbled on one of your videos months back, enjoyed them since then. Love the similar vibes of the Jimmer bombino. Hope to see this channel grow more than it already has!
The Hillclimb in Beam is a hell lot of fun
Especially the gravel version, imho.
And the air actually gets thinner in that version
good video. At final attempt, on the corner where you flew away on first attempt, you really scared me that you will crash XD
Looks very interesting!
9:51 as a skater this funny af XD
Fantastic quality video as usual!
What a video 😂🔥 Loved it
My man really brought a track car, the antithesis of a rally car, lowered and fragile, *to a rally stage*
The Subaru is a hillclimb car. The setup definitely wasn't suited to this hillclimb though lol. If you look at almost any Pikes Peak car they're probably even lower. Although I did switch to a car that was actually built for Pikes Peak if you watch the vid.
@@TSRB, the idr did fit it like a glove but I just don't.. Really.. Like it? But really? I guess it makes sense to lower the centre of gravity on a god knows how tall mountain
Not even a few minutes in, and I already love it
nice to see you doing other things!
Almost feels like the IDR was made for Pike's Peak. Or at least, the 2nd half of it. Having an electric car through that 2nd half is such an unfair advantage to IC engines. I hope we could still see a day when an ICE-powered car can beat the IDR's record. A man can dream.
It pretty much was made to beat the record lol. The fact that it works in other races was just a bonus for vw
mad hearing ST files and other great tunes!
looks very cool
That was sooo exciting
This man uses more euphemisms than the whole Top Gear cast combined.
I thought it was pass u have insane driving technique im sorry for being impatient hope you do some more how to touge vids love the content.
Try this one in the ACVIP R33 GodZooky from oldman jumper... Hell of a ride! XD
definitely the best notification I get
Man you are very onder rated keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
He got back up that horse and... ATE THAT HORSE!
Oh lordy, Pikes peak! I love it.
Nice storyline, would have liked at least a quick nod though. :P
1:20 Lets go brandon!
i love that idr mod too
1:14 battlefield 3 main theme
New content? Good good, no unsubscription today
0:19 damn is that a 24 reference?
W for using Black Skinhead on that intro
need a spotify playlist of the background music..
It took me days to learn Pikes peak on sabastian Loeb rally eveo.
7:44 Mario kart WII flashbacks
I live in Colorado springs and see pikes peak every day 👍
Bro said vw IDR so many times I started to question whether the video was sponsored by VW lmao
hey if you have Forza horizon 5 or any forza with a controller could you make some touge videos for it
for some reason recently the backfire effect has just disappeared from my game for me anyone know why that might be and maybe a solution cuz I miss seeing it in replay
what steering angle u on?
You should do a video on the touge maps people have made with forza horizon 5s map maker. Would be cool to see how you rate them and itll be good for people who dont sim race
This is a sim racing channel so non-sim racing content might not suit the majority of the audience. Although it is a good idea, it should be more suitable for a less sim racing focused channel.
how do i get a gran turismo like feel for ac like at 5:46
Edit: oh it’s a joke lol
Lol thought this was real life
but, can I play with my friends online
how many pitbox this track?
Did you reach according to your time limit or not 😂
You know how hard it is not playing Assetto Corsa because technical failure? Now i want nothing more than playing AC on Pikes Peak for the first time.
Gran Turismo music, garage selection, nice shots, and the bar on top. FUCKING MINT
isn’t this where that Evo crashed
Song?
Banana 👍
Pikes peak is kinda look like mt akina but dirt
That 60 Fps goodness
doing this in a evo 4 with no traction control on wish me luck
Did it on my 3rd try
you should do some content with jimmy broadbent!
A man can dream
@@TSRB every night Jimbo goes to bed wishing for a collab with TSRB
a man can dream indeed, but which man is doing the dreaming?
@@TSRB make your dreams come true
MY LEATHER BLACK JEANS ON
this is why i always use a minimap.
Yay!
Black Skinhead in the beginning?
now downhill
Nyoom
the idr was made for pikes peak...
I said that multiple times in the video....
Nice
Watch TSRB make server 1 become a pikes peak hillclimb
They have this for BeamNG in both tarmac and gravel, I drive it regularly.
My v2 of the conversion includes both. ;)
u should try this again in beamng😈
10:39 that car is electric what the ..
Isnt pikes peak just a high speed american togue? Should be easy for you!
Now try it in beam ng.. with full damage on.
6:30 dat some bullshit
As just a filthy casual, is there any way I can play togues on Assetto Corsa with just a controller?
Yes you absolutely can, with enough practice anything is possible.
I have a 14 minute time in like a stock celica
For a second I thought this is some game from before 2010 lol xD tbh I had to quickly check description if it's "Assetto Corsa" cuz I was so confused what game is that.
Anyway looks like a funny hillclimb but the graphics of the map? ... damn.. 😂
(edit) ps: parts around the road are kinda fine but when there were landscape shots of a map in this video, it looked like when I tried to make a map for assetto wtih google maps xD
It literally was from Google maps.
So, the morale of this challenge is get a faster car so you can drive bad faster?
You and me, 1v1, in VR, gunsai touge, SW20s.................
bunny girl touge when?
i could prob do this in like 2 minutes tbh
0:31 - Look it's Bigfoot or giant ape
also at 0:37, 1:04
Only person that commented about it 💀
If I recall correctly Jeremy Foley binned it on that same corner in his Evo in 2012 th-cam.com/video/bwdC1Yi3OG8/w-d-xo.html

@@GabenHood cheers what video is it?
@@michaelwalker552 th-cam.com/video/DOOJAK4VtT8/w-d-xo.html
Gravel version of this track was WAY better
Thats cool. Now do the same challenge in beamng :)
The Toyota Supra would have done better!
still unserrated
very ugly version of the peak. or maybe your settings were just off.
