The first time trial of the 2025 Hillclimb Curacao race season will be held on March 15, 2025.

Intended as a one off and courtesy of Mr. Edgard Lotman, a fervent motorsport enthusiast and a competitor of the hillclimb since 2018, this time trial will be free of charge to participants. Interested persons and participants are requested to register as soon as possible in order to insure a spot in the starting line up. The deadline is March 13, 2025.

The hillclimb is a race against the clock up the old asphalt road to about half the height of the “Tafelberg”. Each driver will get a handful of chances to go up the mountain and improve his time. He or she will try different driving styles in order to find the fastest way to the finish line. It’s great fun and it can be enjoyed by anyone with a valid driver’s licence.

Cars will be grouped and drivers will have a go at the course one by one. Once arrived at the finish line, drivers will await until the last of the group has finished the course, after which they will all decent and the next group will start.

As the hillclimb takes place on the property of a third party, it’s only natural that there are rules to abide by, such as good conduct, safety, etc. It is with this in mind that, every person new to the hillclimb experience, must follow a rookie orientation.

Drivers are allowed to bring spectators but these will be their responsibility.
