Good driving roads - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hey all - came up with the idea in another thread.

Post your routes from google maps like so:

Name: Cat and Fiddle run
Location: Cheshire, England
More Specific: A537 Near macclesfield
Maps Link: Google Maps

Description: One of britains best and most famous drving roads, average speed cameras have been installed but are inactive due to a police oversight rendering the £800,000 spend on them worthless, there is also a pub at the halfway point for a swift half!

you can search the thread for roads near you easily by using the "search this thread" button at the top right of the first post and entering a general location, if you are posting a route try and be pretty generic, use words you think peoplemight search for

Have fun all. In addition to the above run ill post a fresh one below.

Name: Horseshoe Pass
Location: Flintshire, North Wales
More Specific: Horseshoe Pass, Bala Lake
Maps Link: Google Maps

Description: On a sunday one of the most popular biking/car meet locations is the top of the hill wher the ponderosa cafe is, grab a full english and then make your way down to bala lake for an ice-cream, making sure you are careful of the poice hiding in bushes with speed guns!

There is really nothing in NJ, but I remember going from Las Vegas to Utah on I-15. All straight desert and few police.

I Did when it was in D, i put it in N when the green light came on.

All the time, at every stop light if Im trying to act like its a manual.. haha. But what I mean is I go through 1st, then 2nd in the auto by setting it to that position. It shifts like 3 seconds later tho, fail much? def.
