[GPJamesMVT]

Hey man! I was talking to Devon, and I know you from somewhere.... I can't place it though! Maybe a previous run, or did you race with me in the IMSA lite series?

[Leadfoot_mf]

haha i have seen u at blood mtn a zillion times

[GPJamesMVT]

oh ok, I knew I had seen you somewhere! Have you ever run with us, or just seen us up there? You kept up pretty good on the way down 60 (for the short break in traffic that we had)

What website? Cause we do the samething... I never post a planned trip, just the pics of it afterwards, cause we dont want idiots with us!

[Leadfoot_mf]

[RUSH]

We held off up there this year, I have a few events to shoot in the next few months, and thats prolly all we will do. Its hard to do the pics up there and have a normal job to...its really really time consuming. We may try and do it monthly or something like that...maybe pick holiday weekends or whatnot.... It will be on our site(180pix.com site) though.

[GPJamesMVT]

Yeah, Devon and I used to go up about that often around that time, thats why my windhield has HUNDREDS of rock chips, and a big ass crack

[Leadfoot_mf]

thats why u got to be fast always take the lead.

[i4_garage]

can some one invite me for this in the future :) I would love to go.

[Nippon]

Tim... he says he's the king of the mountain... grrrrr

[GPJamesMVT]

haha, joke. :) Thats not me being cocky or anything... if your faster, let me know cause I want to go with you :)

[Nippon]

HAH. Its all good. I just make it my business to sniff out touge enthusiasts. I'm doing a 2JZ swap with rear wheel drive conversion. I'll see you up there in a month or so...




















I kid...

[06SilverBullet]

[TheGrillMan]

[GPJamesMVT]

That is sad.... very sad. People come there from out of state, just to drive these roads... Kinda like the Dragon, just fewer people

You haven't met the right people. :)

Not dissing Florida or anything, but like you've said you dont ever go through the mountains right? Sunday I saw so many people from Florida going 10-25 miles an hour on the mountains. I know speed limit on sharp curves is like 25, but that doesnt mean to drive slow as hell the whole way up and whole way down. Anyway if you see someone trying to go faster than you at least pull off or something right? Wrong they just stay up there and are happy because they slowed your ass down I guess?

They're just not used to it. The locals in trucks and vans, on the other hand...

No shit, I see so much body roll it isnt even fun. I could swear some of those people are out to kill themselves in their trucks sheesh. I mean Sunday I was going 85 and a Dodge pickup almost ran me off the road, going downhill.

Oh btw way sorry for whoring the thread up.:ninja:

[GPJamesMVT]

Yeah, the locals up there are fun to drive with too ;)

[TheGrillMan]

yeah i drive a truck im guessing thats why ive yet to go through
