Guys,

Please know that we are not trying to race in the canyons AT ALL. We do this just for fun. I never do it with total strangers because it's just not fun. Most of the runs are with my personal friends.

But it's not slow either. We just call it fast cruising. If you can't keep up, that's totally fine. We slow down time to time to get everyone.

Yeah glad to hear that. Lol I'm not the only one.

Funny thing is I got a homie that is really fast, faster than some fools on here trying to act like they're Ayrton Senna reincarnated on these forums , and his girlfriend can stomach riding shotgun while he's going mach 5 up and down GMR. Lol I know I couldn't do it.

Haha that's pretty crazy. I went out with a girl about two weeks ago and she was riding passenger. We went down Ortega Hwy and she barfed. I felt like an asshole. Haha. I could only imagine what would've happened had I taken her to GMR.

What care does your homie drive? Just curious.

if i'm not lazy I'll post some vids of where I like going but if you ever driving through Monterey County, get on Metz Rd. Starts in Soledad, CA and ends in King City, CA.

Others:

(Runs along 101) Reservation Rd in Marina----->Greenfield, CA. A bit rural.
HWY 198. Coalinga--->San Lucas
HWY 68 Del Rey Oaks---->Salinas, CA.

All of these besides Metz Rd are busy during the day. Metz Rd, just be safe! Sometimes there's tractors on road!

I don't think you want to find out.

I don't think he'd like it if I told people. I'll just say he drives a beat up Porsche. Goes to GMR and runs up and down it like some sort of "Racer-X" then goes home when he runs out of gas. Fkn wierdo He tends to not stop at the top to avoid getting chatted up by "bullshitters" You don't see many, if any, Porsche cars running GMR.

Edit:He also only ever uses 3rd gear up and down both sides of GMR. Doesn't overdrive other peoples cars like some delusional Michael Schumacher wanna-be fucking up other people's property trying to show off. Only time he's in 2nd is between sifting up from 1st to 3rd from a stop.

Pictures from Angel Crest this past Sunday

Sunday Funday! A couple buddies and myself decieded to take a late trip to ACH sunday afternoon and didnt get to the mountain till about 1. All in all it was a great day with little to no traffic. (except for the stupid Kia Soul that would not turn out on our way back down..Fuck you). Car performed above and beyond my expectations for still being stock. Just wanted to put up a few pictures I snapped throughout the day. The Ultramarine FRS is mine and the Red FRS is fellow member @Ayo_narith

I would be interested in a drive like this. Palomar/Julian for pie is my regular run. Also would be awesome to get a real quick ride in a FI car as well to feel the difference.
