yeah, there are only a handfull of spots for turnouts, and less than a handfull of people will use them...

can't wait to see you out there! it'll be a blast for sure. Wes and I met up last night to discuss some details, he should have a new thread for the 6/21 meet up fairly soon.

yeah, i just got home from work... so i will get to it soon. It's werid, of the times I have done these routes by myself, people have pulled off for me within 5min of being behind them. When we are in big groups, it's like people think we are out for trouble and dont want to give us the satisfaction of pulling over...

Yea i cant wait to go on this!! SHould be a lot of fun. I get to practice all the time there is a nice run about 2 miles from my house I have a set of coilovers sitting in a box, maybe this will be enough for me to get them on before June 21st haha. What time do you guys usually head out? Im gonna get a set of 2 way radios for the cruise. This might be a good idea for everyone to get a set especially running through the twisties and if the group happens to be a bit bigger.

Come on June 21st!!!

I'll make sure to bring my radios. I might have a couple of extras that people could borrow too.

Hey guys, just an update on a new road... this is by far the most advanced run I have been on up in these hills.

CHECK THIS OUT! This is the map of the route. It took roughly 3 hours of actual trip time...

This was a night run on unkown roads... so of course this would be considered advanced. This is the type of run that wel will save for special occasions and after the group has gotten used to their car and the roads up there.

I will post videos later and get your thoughts on them...
Kepp an eye out for the 6.21.08 post for all information on the next meet. This thread will be used for videos of route and posting up videos and pictures after the meets. Sound good?

Let me know again next time. I can't wait to get out there. I wish I could have scouted it out with you guys. The gig was lame, but I still got paid I made enough to pay for at least a few runs. HAHA

I just saw that my palms had black from the steeringwheel in the lines (is there a technical name for the lines on your palm) from holding on so tight to the wheel... wow... that should be a commercial or something.
