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

ON a bike?! Ever seen a bike not lean in turns? lol!

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...

Holy 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** · 07-18-2009, 08:10 PM

everyone still down?

**DrRafy** · 07-18-2009, 08:53 PM

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** · 07-18-2009, 11:35 PM

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

**ballt85** · 07-19-2009, 12:35 AM

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

**Doppelgänger** · 07-21-2009, 08:29 AM

You would go if you had a Deloreon that could travel back to two days ago

**civicturbo10** · 07-21-2009, 11:35 AM

How was the turn out...

**WTF?** · 07-21-2009, 12:23 PM

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!

A Saturday any time is not amazing unless it's midnight. Too many bicycles, tourists, and police activity. Early or late afternoon Sunday is the best...or just run at night.

**speedminded** · 07-21-2009, 03:07 PM

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!

June 18th Mountain Run!!!

Fall MOUNTAIN RUN - Oct. 30th!!!

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

**civicturbo10** · 07-21-2009, 04:41 PM

Wow, that sux. I def do one in the fall and people can tag along if they like.
