Without a doubt, the best part of this video is watching Roger Feghali’s skill behind the wheel of this one-man-band Mitsubishi Evolution rally car as he made his final run in the 2015 Falougha Hill Climb in Lebanon. With streets that tight and switchbacks aplenty, Feghali showed what it truly means to drive on “maximum attack”, wheeling and sliding the Mitsubishi around as the car makes a cacophony of noises: engine roar, wastegate flutter, and enough anti-lag popping to cause bystanders and locals to wonder if they should be ducking. Feghali had been battling with his brother, Abdo, all weekend, but this run cemented his victory. All we know is that we’d think twice…maybe even three times…before accepting a ride up a hill from this guy. We’d make sure our insurance was current, at least.

A hill climb in Lebanon?
It’s not that long ago that he would have been dodging bombs and bullets!
What’s next – rallying in Helmand, drag racing in Iraq and the 24 hours of North Korea…..
