not really the 8's fault more mine. I don't like long high speed sweepers. I'm all about s turns, hair pins, and tighter sweepers.

and my video scared everyone off obviously.

Oh I gotcha, thats what I was thinking you meant but wasn't sure. I agree, it gets scary when you reach your limit of speed before you reach the car's. There are a few technical section attached to/near ACH such as Mt Wilson road and little tujunga canyon. You ever use lateralg.com ? Great resource!

Mt wilson is insane... I wouldn't take my 8 up there though that's to much. I took my beater up there a few times when I had it. Lots and lots of fun.

I haven't been to lateralg.com im gonna check it right now. thanks for bringing my work productivity down another notch.

Yea I've seen plenty of seasoned vets get rocked on that road.

Tuna is the closest thing to wilson that I'll run.
