Cops up there have gotten insane and will charge you with absoultely anything they can. They started cracking down about what...2 years ago?

Not to mention the season and location. Mountains up that far north will have ice and/or snow. If there's no snow or ice...there's gravel and salt to either slip on or begin a rust process on the chassis/undercarriage. If neither...there's still ice/snow melting from up the mountains going across the roads around turns that are sharp, soft, hard, and unpredictable.

Not to mention the possibility of 18wheelers coming through DESPITE all the "no trucks" warnings. This time of year I'd expect they'd be more likely to be up there taking up both lanes and/or getting stuck seeing as it's off-season for the mountain enthusiasts.

Not to forget the fact that 4touge is an organization I've run with before. I haven't introduced them to the EF squad because...no offense...but their abilities (whether it be driver or car) are beyond the EF Squad...this includes myself. I've run with them in the blue ridge mountains...a terrain I know very well. Even still, with a b18 (known for pulling) and suspension so tight it would make Dare feel big plus the experience I have up there, and I was still unable to keep on their tails. Granted, I'd see them now and then through turns, and I wasn't far behind...for me to be able to do THAT...I was hauling ass at speeds that I'd have to rate as being one of the "best" runs I've ever done in the mountains.

Don't get me wrong, they're EXCELLENT drivers, and they're as safe as you can on a mountain run...but the way I see it?

1) Cops
2) Weather
3) Conditions
4) They're fast as sh*t
5) I don't know the terrain
6) If you have an "accident" they WILL NOT STOP TO HELP YOU.

Not worth me going up there and spending my money, and taking the risk.

Best of luck to any and all who run.

Godspeed.

On the other note...best
