Lime creek Rd in Austin, TX Fun Drive

Took my AM V8V out yesterday for the first time on this road. It was a lot of fun but I did take it easy since it was my first time driving it, and I am more of a reserved driver.

Here is a video of the trip. It was almost all wind noise and the video doesn't really show the excitement of the road so I just time-lapsed it.

It's the best road I know of nearby (in Austin). There are many other great roads south west in the hill country like lime creek with lower traffic and limited driveways. The other good roads in Austin (i.e. 2222 and city park) are too busy and too dangerous to drive very fast on.

You should go on one of the Aston drives with our owners group here. I have missed the last few but the Pres always maps out an outstanding drive and it's a good way to meet other owners.

Are you talking about the AMOC? I want to join, but it isn't clear which side Texas is in? Is it AMOC east or west? Maybe it doesn't even matter.

Thanks
