Isenokungathandwa njengePikes Peak, kodwa iMount Washington yeyona ndlela yokukhwela indala eMntla Melika. Mhlawumbi ngenxa yesi sizathu, u-Subaru wabiza umqhubi owaziwayo uTravis Pastrana waza wamnika umsebenzi obalulekileyo: ukubetha irekhodi lokunyuka kunye ne-WRX STI yakhe.
Iyaliwe kwaye… yenziwe. Kwivili le-Subaru WRX STI eguqulwe kakhulu kwaye ihambisa i-875 hp yamandla, umqhubi wenqwelomoya waseMelika ugqibezele umgama oziikhilomitha ezili-12.2 ukuya eMount Washington (eseNew Hampshire) 5min 28.67s.
I-16.05s ingaphantsi xa ithelekiswa nerekhodi elidala, elibekwe ngo-2017 kwaye lalisekwe kunye ne-WRX STI, nangona inamandla kancinane (i-600 hp).
Ukongeza kwi-vertiginous curves kunye nokuphakama onyukayo (le nduli i-1917 m ukuphakama), indlela eya phezulu ixutywe - inezolula ze-asphalt kunye nomhlaba - nto leyo eyenza umsebenzi wePastrana ube nzima ngakumbi.
Ke uyayazi into endithetha ngayo (okanye ukubhala…) Ndiyakumema ukuba ubukele ividiyo yokunyuka okuphithizelayo ephumelele irekhodi eMount Washington Hillclimb ukuya ePastrana kunye “neyakhe” iSubaru WRX STI:
Malunga ne "Cold Start". Ukususela ngoMvulo ukuya ngoLwesihlanu eRazão Automóvel, kukho “iCold Start” ngentsimbi yesi-8:30 kusasa. Njengoko usela ikofu yakho okanye uqokelela isibindi sokuqala usuku, hlala usexesheni ngeenyani ezinomdla, iinyani zembali kunye neevidiyo ezifanelekileyo ezivela kwihlabathi leemoto. Konke kumagama angaphantsi kwama-200.
