Rhys Millen\'s Solstice tears up Atlanta

Last year, Rhys’s solstice ran a 12:45.153 to win the 2WD Time Attack class. This year, despite spending the final days before the event fixing the car from a meeting with the tire wall in Las Vegas, Rhys ran 12:31.610 to win the 2WD Time Attack class, and place 3rd overall in all Time Attack classes behind a Mitsubishi Evo 9 and Subaru STI. Rhys was the only car in his class to finish the course, but was over 2 minutes ahead of his nearest competitor at the last checkpoint before the peak. Congrats to Rhys and the entire Pontiac Red Bull team for their hard work!

Rhys Millen after Vegas Crash

Last time we saw Rhys Millen’s Red Bull Pontiac Solstice, it was being hauled away on a flat bed after he crashed while facing Toshiki Yoshioka in the Great 8. The team packed the car up into their hauler and headed straight to Pikes Peak, where they were looking to defend their class record in the notorious Hill Climb.

We have received an update from the Millen pit crew, informing us that the car has been repaired, and was running great in practice today, and spirits are high in the MIllen pit to defend their title. The actual competition is tomorrow, and as soon as we hear an update, we’ll be sure to pass it along on here.
