So i found some new roads in my town that are pretty sweet. One is about 12 miles of single lane switchbacks and mountain roads. Its only about 10 minutes from my house! It was a sweet drive anyways heres some pics i took.

I love this sign

It starts out double laned and about a mile into the drive its all single lane and the roads always empty! ill get some pics of the road up another time

Heres some of the ride

My fav pic so far

I'm sorry did that sign say DRIFT NEXT 10 MILES lol, looks like a fun road. I really miss the California hills and the roads that go through them.

there is a lot of 1 way roads out here nothing spectacular. but there is the 1 that these guys will park a car on the road side by the entrance to watch for cars/cops and communicate via hand radios.

it is a good Idea I'd hate to hear about you getting to comfortable and ending up getting into a collision or some kind of trouble

Thanks i drive safe im like a granny around town haha. I am still learning alot about my car how she moves and i am deff getting a good feel for her. I will be sure to be extra safe the only track around me is laguna seca and i dont know if they have open track days or what. Mostly its the chip barber racing school out there all the time. Ill most likely look into that more. I was thinking of getting my diff welded any advice on that would be a plus thanks

its up to you and your driving style. i have a VLSD its nice and dose the job as a DD (daily driver)(i have fun with it but thats about it no track time at all), but if you have the cash def. upgrade. to a 1.5 or 2 way. i dont know how the cops are over there about a welded diff. since it chirps and squeels on every turn. tires wear out faster bla bla bla bla... theres tons of info. on here you can read up on....

Looks like fun. That road looks familiar. I use to live in south side San Jose and not too far from Morgan Hill. I like the way those wheels look on your car.

Mine are SSR Dish. But companies like Zauber make the same style wheel. Just kinda cheaper IMO. What are your offests? Yours might be a little better than mine haha





Rubbin' with no rotors. I need a slight roll and pull. And OP you need to go lower. Really nice wheels. I like seeing other people pulling them off nicely.

My car was alot lower when i got it, i didnt like not being able to go up my driveway or go over speed bumps. The car was hella cambered also theres bald spot on the inner 3 inches of the front tires i cant afford new tires so i put it on the good tread for now. The tires rubbed the fenders to. I do want to go lower eventually i think ill pull the fenders a little bit and get camber on the rear then ill have her sitting real nice
