twisty "detour" up Mesa Grande
That detour was spot on in the challenge column, quick shifts to keep the turbo spooled while single handing the hairpins, most tasty! You Tip folks have it too easy..

I think the Turbo R behind me might have caught a recovery..

In the beginning I was afraid it would more parade then funrun, glad I was disappointed.

+1... got to give my GT1 brakes a good work out. Btw, ibkevin, it was very fun being behind you through the twisties uphill... my brother was trying to take pics of your car, but ride was too rough.

I warned ya!

it was very fun being behind you through the twisties uphill...
But did you catch my double correction Javier, I might have had just enough lead to pull it out before you came through the corner. The stock pedals are impossibe for heel-toe'ing.

Your pass made me a little jealous..

I probably meant intercooler hose. I don't know what I was thinking. It's not like a mustang where you blow the coolant everywhere and keep going!

Oh yeah, I caught that! As far as the pass... that was fun! Definitely not a parade run!

If any of you guys get a bug in the ear to run any sat or sunday maybe a night before post would generate a couple of guys. I'm going back next weekend to see what I missed this time around.

-- Jordan, that's a gorgeous shot of your car.
Your suspension must be really tight cuz it looks like you're barely moving and I know that was *not* the case!

I ordered both pics on Knee Down but haven't received them yet....

Mesa Grande is nice... though that grill on the road and the narrow bridge is scary.
