**KK** :
I think a series of trials should be had where else but the
infamous _ridge/gower/waters/johnson_ roads up that mountain
on the side of rt5.
The timing thing might be a bad idea, but fun to do otherwise

Yes! There are ome houses on those roads, but alot of them are farm land and usually zero traffic. They are great driving roads, and some of them are freshly paved last year and silky smooth.
in for this.

true story, straightline SR is dumb enough but at least you have a chance of seeing traffic. I heard somewhere that they have these weird events where people rent out road courses and you can drive your car for a reasonable price without significant risk of death or arrest, weird. :retardclap

Please Senor Jeff, tell me about such events?
I don’t know what’s worse… These guys thinking they have the skill to do all of this safely, or that they think the other people who want to do have the skill to do it safely.
