Climbing Mt. Washington is a formidable feat! Standing at 6,288 feet above sea level, this U.S. giant holds the title of the tallest mountain in the northeast. As you can thus imagine, driving up it is quite the obstacle and speaks to the capabilities of any vehicle that succeeds. That is why the motorsport event, known as the Mt. Washington Hillclimb, is a competition like no other.
This year's event is scheduled to start on Friday, July 7th and will last until Sunday, the 9th. It will feature 75 competitors from various brands, including Subaru. The goal is for the competitors to wrestle their way up the mountainside until they reach the peak, and the one who arrives first will ultimately earn the title of "King of the Hill."
At Diablo Subaru of Walnut Creek, we believe drivers representing the Subaru brand will make us proud. After all, every model utilizes components like Symmetrical All-wheel Drive which are perfect for the task. Not to mention, the current record of 6 minutes and 9.09 seconds is held by none other than 2014 Subaru driver David Higgins and his co-pilot, Craig Drew. It is for these kinds of accomplishments that we sing praises about our Subaru collection too!
