This was the run to top all runs. Seriously. I can't remember the last group I did that had this much excitement the entire 2 hours straight!!! Watching Ken take a nose-dive over one of those hipster mounds was friggin epic as much as it was classic. My battery ran out literally one minute before. Time to get the GoPro back-up battery setup. Stat.

It's on my agenda for a fall run. My next run is to the Porsche Club Race at Summit Point which i will be posting soon. If you have never run my route to SP, it's a freakin' awesome route

Stay tuned, details will be posted soon... I will only be taking 15-16 cars which is the perfect size group.

This was BY FAR, the craziest, wildest, most insane 2 hours of driving I have ever been on (and I've done allot of drives). I think I busted the suspension on the ride since I had all 4 tires off the ground no less than half a dozen times on that route.

What a great run - Hats off Ken..

On Sunday, I drove nearly 185 miles to participate in this wonderful 70-mile run (along with 15 other like-minded guys), and then 185 miles back home. I was a bit tired afterwards, but....it was probably the most challenging run I've ever been on - incredible, really, with very proficient drivers in quick/capable cars. The group was able to stay close together and move quickly, with relatively few interruptions from traffic lights, stop signs, or slower traffic.

And what a route it was (who needs the Tail of the Dragon?) - there were tight curves and esses galore, short crests with quick drop offs, blind corners, set-ups for turns that needed good brakes that don't fade and tires with prodigious grip, uphill sections that challenged even cars with substantial hp/torque, one-lane bridges, tunnels....well, you get the picture.

In "Jaws," Richard Dreyfuss and Robert Shaw realized that they needed a bigger boat. Next time I run with you guys, I'll consider bringing the 911.

Bull your runs are becoming stuff of legend! The only faster runs are the ones we'd have to do to the bathroom after crappy mexican food

Yeah, you're right. However, I have an annoying rattle going on that I can only hear on the video and not in realtime. That's more frustrating. We'll see.

Already looking forward to August's Run.
I have gotten a bit of flack form some more 'conservative' drivers over my video... seems crossing the double yellow and 'possibly' exceeding the posted limit is frowned on by some... oh well......

I'm going to have to guess they weren't on the run! Hosers.

It was a long time ago, but I attended one of these "meetings" and it was incredible.

I would definitely like to make the next one.
