Well, it’s that time of year where the LIWA Hillclimbs are happening. This is some really fun stuff, where folks come from all over to race up an epic dune in Dubai. Located not far from the Liwa Oasis, this is a hot spot for dune racing. We’re talking about everything from build 2JZ combos to twin turbo LS engines, and even Pro Mod combos. Yep, there are some serious players here, and when you see these purpose-built machines hauling ass up the dunes you’ll understand. The LIWA hillclimb is huge, happens mostly at night when it is cool and is nonstop action.

We’ve got a few videos to share from this event, but the first one here is what is called the Stunt competition. It’s really more like the drifting competition, but it features rigs hauling ass up the dune any way they way, as long as they go up and around the marker up top. Consider it the warmup party for the racing which will be coming up next.

If you haven’t watched any of this event before, then you have missed out on flips, crankshafts falling out, and fires, along with a lot of flying sand and speed. Watch.
