In a Hillclimb stage, you get two attempts at setting them best time. To earn this achievement, you have to have the best time for both of your attempts.

The way I set it up was:

-Go to Custom Events from the main menu and select Hillclimb
-Select the Location as Pikes Peak, USA
-Set the number of stages to 1 and the difficulty to "Open" (Easiest difficulty)

Then select one of the three sectors to race on. I personally chose Sector 2 to race on because I felt I was the most comfortable on it. You can choose whichever car you'd like as well, I went with the Modern Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak.

Depending on your skill level and familiarity of the game this could be easy or a bit more difficult (I know I struggled a bit and took me a few attempts to get used to the course). But regardless with some practice and familiarity of the course you'll be able to get it eventually.

You can also get the achievement by completing the daily online event for Pikes Peak. The achievement pops as soon as you finish both runs.

These don't appear every day but you have to do it anyway for another achievement.

I got this very easily by starting a daily challenge (which happened to be a hillclimb) 2 minutes after it went live. Of course you have to be lucky there is a hillclimb as daily event.

I did not have the fastest time (I was 10th), but apparently the trophy checks the times when you start the event, so it said I had the fastest time, because when I started the event, there were no times set.

There is one big caveat with this option. I live in Belgium and the challenges reset at noon my time (which is UCT+2 in summer and UTC+1 in winter). For some timezones this won't be a convenient way to do it.

You can compare timezones here: http://www.worldtimebuddy.com/ (compare to brussels). It has to be noon in brussels (or 11 am GMT) to reset.

I know this won't work as conveniently for everybody (unfortunately) as for the US westcoast, it means the reset is at 3 AM, but it is a very easy way to get this trophy.

Edit: I just saw there are 2 other solutions on the sisterwebsite trueachievements:
https://www.trueachievements.com/a214725/take-your-pick-achi...

If the timezone things is not convenient for you, you can have a look there.

Edit:
According to RaggaEdje you can also get this easily by starting a league (set it friends only). If you get the first run, you will finish without any times on the board as well and you get the trophy.

This is more convenient then my solution because you can set up a league whenever you want and you don't need to be on there for a specific time.

If you run in helmet cam, you can also get

Hillclimb stages are won by the person who sets the fastest time. Each entrant is given two runs to set a time, with the fastest of those times determining their placing for the event. In order to unlock this trophy, both of your run times need to be faster than any other time set. This trophy can be most easily unlocked at the ‘Open’ level as the A.I. times are much easier to beat. They will still require some effort and track knowledge to finish outright faster than every other time they set, however they do allow some room for error.

You can also get it through leagues. Create a race, drive it 2 times and the trophy is yours.
