I wish. no those r pros. they use nitro meth and can use steel paddles and chains.
i've only raced amateur in new england. The farthest i've gone is Mankato Minnesota.

When I get a 250 I might try a couple hillclimb competitions down here. I have done a couple of the hills in the competitions and I thought they were pretty easy.

i raced in Tyler hill PA for about 12 -15 years.
4 hour ride each way for me. u could ride up the hill on a 10 spd schwinn. lol
but it was fastest time they were looking for not how high u could make it.
the hill had a huge dip right at the half way point and i u were going fast enough on a big bike u could bottom out the frame and it would send u over the bars.
it would happen at least once a race.
