The Pikes Peak International Hill Climb told the Colorado Springs Police Department that the car was “not associated with the Hill Climb organization,” despite the branding on the car, KOAA notes.

PPIHC organizers also released the following statement to the media about the incident clarifying the car’s role in this weekend’s races:

Unfortunately, the street-legal Jannarelly vehicle was damaged in an off-course incident on Thursday evening, June 21st and will not be able to participate in the 96th running of the Pikes Peak Hill Climb. The driver was treated and released. There were no other passengers or vehicles involved.

The car’s role in the event was to make a demonstration run between the Motorcycle program and the Car program.

Our Official Safety Trucks and trained safety teams, along with a host of first responders and law enforcement agencies, will be in full force on the mountain this Sunday, able to respond to any and all emergencies should they arise.

Per the organizers, the car was not part of the hill climb’s actual safety crew and was set to do a demonstration run only.

Look, if you’ve got a demo run planned up Pikes Peak of all places, the last thing you should be doing beforehand is speeding around on public streets. Keep it under control so you can savor the potentially once-in-a-lifetime shot to show off the car to the Pikes Peak crowd, please.
