I will have to check it out. Hopefully later this summer. They have photographers on TOD who take action shots as you drive by. Out of like 30 shots, I only found two I like. But when they get a money shot its worth it.

I went a couple years back, all I remember is people letting their wives and girlfriends out to vomit. Not for the weak of stomach! Unbelievable drive, must do before u die.

Here is a video of tail of the dragon from the g35. If you take a look at the other videos we posted there is one off the hood of my buddies cobra where we watched a guy as his rear wheel slipped out around a corner. We caught it on video. Fortunately he regained control.

There were a ton of bikes out there. Around mid afternoon it actually became really dangerous because there were so many bikers who didn't respect the road and were hitting speeds that made it tough for us people in cars as they came around corners.

Best road I've ever driven hands down! I took my 07 GT a few years back with friends' M3, S2K, and Vette. Planning on taking the G soon.

YEAH BRO...INSANE. The only problem right now is that they closed down a potion of the loop on the TN side because of a rock slide. Wait til next season. You'll have more good road.
