KELOWNA – The 57th annual Knox Mountain Hill Climb is over for another year.

High-powered cars tore up the 2.2 km track along scenic Knox Mountain Park and spectators were treated to gut-wrenching speeds and heart-stopping elevation changes.

The event ran Saturday and Sunday.

Race results will be posted on the event website.

InfoTel News reporter Adam Proskiw stopped by to take some pictures of the cars and some of the action. Check out his slide show.

As well, Andre Marziali set a new SP4 (street sedans and sports cars 4001 cc and over) with a time of 1:55.1. He drives a 1999 BMW M3 with a twin screw supercharged 2.8L inline 6 cylinder engine. He took a video of his run as seen below.
