Corvettes are awsome...too bad they use leaf springs .

I could drive on that road all day.

yeah, too bad they use transverse leaf springs that are significantly lighter than a coil spring setup and perform far better in the c5/c6 applications than would a coiltype spring suspension. too bad my z06 has truck springs and can only pull 1.00g laterally. too bad.....

isn't that up in Angeles Crest?

[JustinStrife]

there's some roads like that in the backwoods of San Diego(like up to Julian via 78 or the back route) however they're not as wide and a bit slower in most areas.

Very cool vid. Gotta love the Vettes. My #1 favorite American vehicle.

I'm pretty sure that's northern Arizona, somewhere between Phoenix and Flagstaff. Looks to be the road to Cottonwood or Globe.

Cool video. I am glad the C6 is out now, so maybe the C5 will go down in price. I would sure like one.

Cool but really long video. Looks like a fun road to play on, smooth and curvy. I wish we had roads like that were I live. I like the scenary too (mountains, trees, etc.)
