Watch This Racecar Break the Speed Record For Driving Up Mt Washington
Have you ever driven up Mt Washington? It's a beautiful drive--6288 feet up. If you've never done it, it's not too scary at all! Driving up usually takes about 30 minutes. BUT, if you're in a #199SubaruWRX STI with a specially fitted 600hp engine it's a lot shorter trip. In THAT case, it takes you less than 6 minutes. 5:44:72 to be exact. That's the record and it was set by Travis Pastrana in 2017. Ready to go? Strap in bub.....
For those of us who don't have a racecar-this is what the trip usually looks like. Goin up takes about 30 minutes. Going down takes between 30 and 45 minutes.
