Sometime in early january i want to go up there and enjoy the view. Whoever said "its not about the destination its the journey" seems to know what he is talking about.

New tierods/balljoints/tires... ...$900
Gas round trip....................... ...$40 (aprox)
Waiting for summer............... ...Endless


Carving that road with the windows down and AC/DC cranked up in a 3gee............................... ...PRICELESS!!

Yeah, that road is infamous in our family. It comes up first whenever we talk about going for a serious drivers drive if ya know what I mean, that roads at the top of the list. Their was talk about having a bay area G35 owners meet and taking a drive up the road, the never did it though. Hwy 140 Mariposa to Yosemite national park is really fun to, especially briceburg canyon, but you eat it their and it's up to a 2000ft drop to think about your opps. I'm lucky that I have a special foot hill road that doesn't have any traffic, lot's of corners and it's close to me.

Mountain passes are cool :) I got to drive Skyline Drive not too long ago. Granted I was driving my g/f's ride, but she didn't bother me much when I took the corners all out with a slight hair of tire screech.

Let's get up some maps of these places. Would be great for meets and some awsome driving.

When we had the mini meet in Redding Ca, we drove on a sweet road it was alot of fun having 4 3geez going in and out of corners.
