Recap: Intermediate and Advanded Driver's Only Drive
 

Alright gotta say much thanks for the guys that braved it out today. I'm sure I can say we all had a blast. Great driving experience today. Big Props goes to Devon for leading the pack and doing a great job at navigating/watching for cops/and just leading LOL. I think what made the drive great was because no one was trying to out do the next guy. Everyone was respectful to one another. Now on to the DRIVE!!!

Time of Departure: 10:15am
Time of Arrival (in front of my house): 5:30pm

There was something for everyone:

Long sweeping corners going about 80-90mph...
- I always enjoy this type of road because it reminds me so much of certain parts of skyline drive and basically IMO lets the g35 really open up with handing and power simutaneously. Devon this is the part where I was sorta driving too close to you LOL

Twisties in deserted boonies residential areas....
- Definitely not anyone's favorite....but you really can't find anything like this around our area. I definitely slowed it down out of respect for the residents and in the case some kid runs out into the middle of the road.

Rollercoaster style roads which if you drive over 70 you'll basically launch the car into the air...
- This is by far the part I hate the most. I know the three other guys enjoyed it a lot. I'm not a big fan of rollercoasters and dont like the feeling of having my balls fly up into my throat... Sorry Pat, I know I was keeping you back on one of the roads that was like that...

Tiny road in with a bunch of twisties with a capital "T". Probably the most dangerous part of the whole trip. Devon kept an eye out for oncoming cars and we were able to avoid them. The road was basically a good sized road for one car... but it was a two way road....no lane divider.... no lines.... one side is rocks.... the other side is a cliff. You figure it out....
- I loved this road. Made the trip worthwhile. Tight blind corners on a road that was more suitable for the WRC.

The drive itself was about 5 hours... we barely got lost...maybe off directions by overshooting a turn but we busted a couple of u turns and was back on our way. I think that last long road....23miles? I think that was more of an "endurance" than anything...cause I was getting tired and annoyed by that point! LOL HAHAHA

Thanks guys...(Devon, Dehj, Pat) great time great time. :)

Yea those twisties were GREAT....you could just feel the car grabbing the road as you pulled it through the tight corners then switched it to the oppisite direction. Those straight aways were fun as well, you got to open it up a lil. Next time I want a co-pilot for nav and pics. But over all GREAT TIME!!!!

Great place to test your tires. (Just make sure you ease into it of course. Wouldn't wont somebody going on there and ending up in a ditch.)

Definetly had a blast! I love to try to push the car to see just what it can do. Im just really glad that the we didnt have any accidents or tickets.

Devon did a great job calling out cars on the opposite side of the road. I think w/o those heads up we could have had some really close calls. I know sometimes I was edging into the opposite lane for some of those turns.

I think Pratik was right tho, it seemed a good idea to have a small group. If we would have went with say 10 cars it may have gotten messy.

Next up... Skyline drive! Woohoo!

scary -,.-;
glad everyone had fun...

alright had a talk with Puria and JC. They want to go this coming Sunday... who's down???

I thought we was meeting at the school at 10:30. I was there waiting, watching everyone play tennis and no Gs. I saw three black Gs pass the school around 10:45, and that was it.

^ damn that sucks

dang bruce!!!! soooo sorry. i didn't have you number. the md guys met and came down to va.... sorry bro.

you know...we had 3 black g's rolling.... and devon

Hopefully if Devon is down we can have another drive this Sunday. I hope you can make it Bruce. Please get our cell numbers from Pratik.

I tried but he didn't answer his phone. Then when he called me back I was already riding some of the back roads. I was kind of boring doing it by myself so I turn around and went back home.

I'm out fror this weekend. I promised the wife that we would finish building the bathroom downstairs this weekend. Sorry bro.

awww man.
