    Default Drove through the mountains today, a few pics inside

    I decided to drive up through the twisties on my day off to relieve some stress, and took some pictures along the way. It was very nice out... very little traffic.




    Mountain run Speedminded style:
    (yes i pulled over in the exact same spot )

    man, i was up there all day yesterday in the 240... i had to go to blairsville to get my title for the truck, then over to clarkesville for my tag. i went 129 over blood mtn into blairsville, then came back over, hit RRR over to 75A, then into helen and down toward clarkesville. i had a blast, started exploring the limits of the kumho's on RRR and i'm pleased to say i didn't find them yet

    yup... pushing them pretty hard most of the time. never really got them loose even seeing how late i can brake in a lot of the turns on RRR. i really need an alignment though because i still have pretty bad (visible) toe-out in the front so it turns in a little lazy.

    Let's just say I coated a few cars behind me with a nice layer of Mobil 1. That was on Mtn Run III back in late '03 BTW.

    damn that was a long time ago. i came up on the turn-off and decided to take the pic for old times sake!

    ive lived in lawrenceville for about 4 months now and i never realized how nice hte mountains were until i had moved away from them. city life fucking blows. to bad most people never get out long enough to realize how nice it is other places.

    4 months eh? I realized it the first week but it's been over 3 years now...I'd buy a cabin w/ shop up there if the commute wouldn't kick my ass everyday and 400 really sucks. I can't wait to get my own business up and running.

    Yeah, real nice pictures. I need to go up there some time real soon. Any one up for a make-shift small mountain run like on Friday?
