The 2012 Pikes Peak Hill Climb was delayed following the (global warming) epic wildfire
near Colorado Springs just before the original race date. The rescheduled date was last weekend, and eight electric cars remained in the lineup for the race. These teams included Toyota Motorsports Group, Mitsubishi, Elias Anderson (NovaKar), Michael Bream (EV West), Ikuo Hanawa (Ibaraki Japan Summit), and Nobuhiro Tajima (Monster Tajima).
