A video shows the 3.8-litre, 616hp McLaren 12C Spider navigating the tricky, snow-covered route 'racing' against professional snowboarder Chanelle Sladics.
The 12C Spider is being driven in the video by Rhys Millen. The native New Zealander is the current overall record holder for the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, 2005 Formula Drift champion and 2008 Drifting World Champion. Rhys has appeared in over 500 commercials spanning 20 years and films including several appearances within the Fast and the Furious franchise, Indiana Jones and is curretnly working on a new film project soon to be released.
Chanelle takes the most direct route across the snow covered landscape. At 11,990 (3,655m) above sea level, Loveland is the highest mountain pass in the world that stays open during the winter months.
The 12C Spider made its global debut in North America last year. Check out the video on the official McLaren Automotive YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/McLarenAutomotiveTV.
