Knox Mountain Hill Climb 1969 - From deep in the archives and Brian Elliott's 3/4" U-matic collection comes a piece of motor-sports history. Almost all of the 1969 Knox Mountain Hill Climb in Kelowna, BC. Possibly originally shown on Wide World of Sports. Look for a Chaparral, a Brabham BT16, early BMW 2002, Mini Coopers and more.
Please forgive the rough quality, given it's more than 40 years old, its not bad.

Knox Mountain Hill Climb 2011 - Yarko Petriw FF1600 Record Breaking run
This was my second run on day two of the amazing 2011 Knox Mountain Hillclimb. The car is a Swift DB1 FF1600 (formula ford). Very proud to finish 1st in class, 3rd overall out of 83 competitors and to break the class record which has stood since the mid 90's. (by over a second!). There's definitely more time in the car (as evidenced by my missed shift in turn 6 for starters) and we look forward to correcting mistakes and trying to best our times again next year.
This was my first time competing in this event and we will certainly be back for more. The Knox Mountain Hillclimb is the oldest paved hillclimb in North America having just finished it's 54th year of competition. It takes place every Victoria Day long weekend in Kelowna BC Canada.
