I personally think LC is overrated. Kind of gets dizzying and you're surrounded on all sides by trees so you don't really get much of a view.

If you take 2222 going west from Mopac it is a lot more fun all the way to City Park Rd. Once you get to City Park Rd make a left and take the twisties all the way up Emma Long. You get to wind out the car more than if you were to do Lime Creek.

Another thing, because of the constant steep grades of Lime Creek, the car's lack of torque really takes some of the fun out of it. Just my two cents.
