Hwy 9 Fun Run!

[Natey]

On my bathroom scale, the Volks seem to weigh about 17 pounds.

Dave, I'm pretty sure Celicas also run 5X100. Maybe they'd go on the Celica boards..? (uhm)

That's kinda sad about Stew. He wants that car to be cool SO BAD...that it's un-cool.

i have some uphill stuff (more fun if u ask me). but they are 650 mbs, so they arent on the site...

edit: did i show u guys this video yet? i'd be shocked if anyone recognized the roads... i made it to test the camera mount, to see how well it took to rough road, heavy braking, etc. decided to post it to see what others said, its probably a year or so old...

it is summit road near highway 17. the road was a little wet and you can see me slide a little in the S turn... the song is "Mr Scruff - Get a Move On.mp3"

 

[MrFoggy]

Maybe Summit road is gonna have to be a new spot for us. I remember driving it a while ago cuz my ex used to live up in the Redwood Estates.

that should look really familiar then, redwood estates is where i turned around in the video... i live 1.5 miles from there... how old is your ex? if shes 20-26 i might have gone to school with her if shes lived there from 93-98...

Now that you mention it, I do recognize it.
It's a nice place to live, but you are in the middle of bum **** egypt up there. They have that one "store" up there that is good for beer, cigs, and videos and not much else.

 

[Natey]

Damn avi's.

ya kinda, i rarely go to that store though. normally i go to summit store i drop into town if traffic is light. there is nothing like 17 at a nice high speed though in the middle of the night. just me, the car, the road, and semi's going 25 mph around blind turns, lol.(wrc)

 

[MrFoggy]

I bet! I used to drive 17 all the time in a 1984 Bronco. Great torque, but the thing handled like a pig. Still managed to make some good times after drving it a bit.

Once you memorize a road, you find yourself pushing and pushing your car until you scare yourself.

 

[odyss3y]

big moody at 90 mph is always a thrill, lol...

 

[MrFoggy]

Preach on, brotha!
