About Hill Climb

Let’s Hill Climb!

Boasting some of the oldest events in the world, some dating back more than a century, hillclimb is when a section of road on a mountain is blocked off from commuter traffic and drivers take turns seeing who can complete the course the fastest. Unlike a road course – which may have multiple levels of barriers, or an autocross where rubber cones are usually the biggest risk – a hillclimb course is lined with trees and rocks. Getting to the top unscathed is a mix of bravery and discretion, and the most successful are crowned “king of the hill.”


The HillClimb event calendar is here.

WDCR is excited to offer a new competition option for our members in 2022.  Our recently added Western Maryland Chapter is composed of many folks WDCR members may already know as the organizers of the Cumberland Airport Autocross Series and the Polish Mountain Hill Climb and as PCA racers, workers and organizers at Summit Point. Their new chapter joins the WDCR family with a well-earned reputation for hospitality and willingness to open the beauty of Mountain Maryland to their entrants.
