That's Yamnuska in the background: Blackfoot for "I'm not going to climb that mountain".
Yes! LOL. It's the killer dealer-closing shot that Bert sent me with a caption "Here's Joel driving back through the Rockies".

Hope the Zeus-mobile is running strong Joel
Woohoo! Love endurance drives!
Saddle up boys! The epic drive begins. Time to doff the cover and fire up the sleeping beast! No worries about a little rain. May I remind ourselves that we're not driving Ferrari's. See you tomorrow in Nelson Jeff and Ken.
And... I believe after adding Brian's and Jeff's suggestion we have the final route! Check this out...
I always read about you guys using radar detectors Do you really speed that much? I don't know but i rarely drive quickly these days. Im sure some of it is due to where you live but again, how often do you speed? I drove from Miami to Daytona last week and I set the cruise control at the speed limit the entire time and still managed to make it there in 4 hours each way. Never worried about the infamous Florida State Troopers...
Sheesh, the most fun I had on the Rennsport Trip was the section from Crescent City up into Oregon and around Crater Lake. Almost no cars seen for 250 miles, and no way I would've done what I did without a V1.
Same can be said for the 90 minute run home from Rennwerks down Hwy 1 from Carmel to Cambria a couple of years ago at 5am. Passed 1 RV the entire run-that was indeed a "Blue Moon" that day.
