[steelmatt6]

This sounds like a cool thing to do. I need some mountain run practice anyway, before I head of to Deals Gap AKA The Dragon. Maybe, not sure though. Depends on work, money, and the car.

It should be a lot of fun though!

[ballt85]

haha, i used to drive to hayesville, nc once a month to see my fiance's grandparents.

i enjoy making this drive! i once chased an SRT-4 down the mountain in my sol. i had just gotten new tires and they were sticking wonderfully! (the driver was getting stupid, and almost lost it a couple times, i know i scared him shitless being on his ass the entire time) times like these are when i miss my car so much.. RIP del sol

what that recorded on a bike? or was in mounted on your car, and if it was on your car, where was it sitting during the recording?

[speedminded]

what that recorded on a bike? or was in mounted on your car, and if it was on your car, where was it sitting during the recording?ON a bike?! Ever seen a bike not lean in turns? lol! :screwy:

I'm gonna take a wild guess it was suction cut mounted on the hood, judging from the height and perspective of it compared to other cars...


heres a vid from last weekends run

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1AbHZGt2bkHoly crap, is that a running SVX at 6:30?! Just being a backseat bitch looks like your turn-in is a hair early and you get on the throttle exiting a turn a little late. I'd mic the vid and run it to the interior or get a fuzzy cover to help block the wind.

[ballt85]

everyone still down?

[DrRafy]

this is 15 min from where I live but my car still down, Im getting the axle monday, maybe I take my wife car if she let me. Only have to work on the morning 2morrow.

[yjack]

I am going there tomorrow with my Elise, but 6pm is probably a little too late for me. Hope you guys have fun.

[ballt85]

ok sounds good

yea it was an svx, but barely running. I think it ended up stopping at the top and hanging out while everyone went ahead.

On that run I was really just taking it easy until the end, but thanks for the pointers

[yungdz]

u should come to this one

yea but im out of town unfortunately

[Franco Tirador]

so how was the run?

[Doppelgänger]

I would go...but my Miata wouldn't stand a chance :(

[speedminded]

I would go...but my Miata wouldn't stand a chance :(You would go if you had a Deloreon that could travel back to two days ago :tongue:

[civicturbo10]

How was the turn out...

[WTF?]

sorry my car was down

[ballt85]

one person showed up

[steelmatt6]

My car has been having some coolant issues, and if I wasn't working, I would have been able to make it. However, you should set something up again, just in the Fall. Most people are back from vacation, and in school/working. I am sure a Fall Saturday would be an amazing time to go!

Too many bicycles, tourists, and police activity. Early or late afternoon Sunday is the best...or just run at night.

[speedminded]

This is how you plan a mountain run but I don't do it any more...only at night without the presence of inexperienced drivers. It was complete choas the last time I took 34+ cars up lol!

I have written a detailed PDF of a route that will get your feet wet on ever major road between Dahlonega, Suches, and Helen...with mileage and landmarks throughout. Basically a giant figure 8 hitting the best roads up in the best direction...unfortunately I won't ever publicly release the PDF. Yeah I'm an ass :tongue:
