The 10-minute mark is an illusive target at the Pikes Peak International Hillclimb. Or so it seems. Drivers from all over the world have for years been trying to get past the chequered flag in less than 10-minutes but none have prevailed. However, their effort in trying to do so does deserve some massive credit.

At the 2010 event, American driving legend Rhys Millen once again set out to try and beat the mark with a custom Hyundai Genesis PM580 capable of 750hp. He failed to beat the clock again, but the Red Bull team he drove for did put together a great video of his efforts. And here it is.
