The first to finish 20 kilometer long track that overcomes a height difference of 1440 meter in the course of its 156 turns was Rhys Millen, who set a new track record for electric cars with his electric racing car Drive eO with a time of 9 minutes and 07,222 seconds.
The absolute fastest track record although remains in the hands of Sebastian Loeb, who finished the race in 2013 with his tuned Peugeot 208 in 8 minutes and 12,878 seconds, a time that remains out of reach for electric (and other) racing cars. Second place also belonged to an electric car, the E-Runner, which was developed by Rimac Automobili (and tested by Akrapovič) and driven by Nobuhiro "Monster" Tajima, who reached the finish line in 9 minutes and 32,401 seconds.
As every year, the race to Pikes Peak was a vibrant gathering of very diverse cars and drivers, so everyone who made it from start to finish was a moral champion, whether he drove an oldtimer, a truck or a pure-bred racing car.
