June 26, 2015

You may have noticed professional driver Rhys Millen was featured in the Pennzoil action-packed mini-film “Airlift Drift” just a couple of months ago. This is just one of many projects that Pennzoil and Millen will collaborate on through the remainder of 2015.

Next on the list, Millen will take on the 93rd running of the “Race to the Clouds” at Pikes Peak, Colorado on June 28, 2015.

[text_ad] Rhys looks to have the same success that his father, Rod Millen, had while racing with the support of Pennzoil back in 1989 when he won the Class C division race at Pikes Peak. The foundation of the relationship between Pennzoil and Millen is driven by their shared passion for pushing the limits of performance and achieving automotive excellence.

[Editor’s Comment: Many years ago I was Pennzoil’s guest at the event when Rhy’s father, Rod  was looking to be the first to break the 10 minute barrier. Over the years the goal remained elusive until Monster Tajima, Rhys, and Sébastien Loeb hammered it down to 8 minutes and change. For those of us of a certain age (classified) Pikes Peak and the Indianapolis 500 were the stellar events in US motor racing, though the two could not be more different in demeanor and attendance.]
