Climb Dance – Ari Vatanen and Peugeot 405 at Pikes Peak

Climb Dance is a record-winning short film which features Finnish rally driver Ari Vatanen setting a record time in a four-wheel drive, all-wheel steering 600hp Peugeot 405 Turbo 16 GR at the 1988 Pikes Peak International Hillclimb.

The film was produced by Peugeot and directed by Jean Louis Mourey. While Vatanen’s record time was 10:47 minutes, Climb Dance only runs for 5:14 minutes of wonderful noises and nerve-wracking sights.

Highlights:

2:52 – Shots from the helicopter are jaw-dropping

3:28 – Vatanen driving with one hand as the right hand is blocking the glaring sun

3:50 – Another amazing helicopter shot where you are certain the Peugeot is going overboard
