@Mike, not friendly on the tires or gears at all, may even get the gopro to skip a frame, so nice choice of roads.

yeah I think i'm gonna sleep in this weekend and take a break from the early mornings haha. if the weather is decently dry I might go on a casual solo drive whenever I have a moment, but can't commit to a group thing cause it'll be a little unpredictable. if someone wants to plan something though, set a time and I'd see if I can make it.

I would've never said anything like this before getting this car, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which I like better: sleeping in on saturday morning, or getting out on the roads before they're full of cars & people...

Good man . Last night, I got one of those mileage surveys from my car insurance (to check how many miles I've been driving) and I've well exceeded my estimated yearly mileage thanks to these drives... guess I gotta bump them up and get the higher premium
