Default Took the car down to Deal's Gap in TN/NC this past weekend. Wow!

Just a quick post, when/if I get the few pics that the killboy.com guys take of drivers thru the twisties, I'll post them too...

Here is one just before climbing the mountain pass known as Deal's Gap - a quite popular road for bikes, and some cars, which has 318 turns in 11 miles.
A motorcycle video is here -

Driving the road was simply amazing in the car. I had done it before (this is part of an annual camping trip I make) in a few rentals (not much fun) and my Audi A4 (lots of fun) - but, I was stunned at how fast I was in the C4. I was having no problem keeping up (but not too close, they get mad) with cruiser bikes. :-)



Cheers, more pics to follow when I find them...

Sweet looking picture. Your black targa looks great against the lake.

I don't know what it is about that car... but it looks good no matter where he takes the photo!
