Thanksgiving Touge Pics!

Well around 6pm I just headed out to the runs and cruised. I poked on the way up b/c its getting really nasty (leaves and debris). I cleared a couple of fallen limbs and looked for state troopers, DNR, cops, etc. All clear. I ran up and down 4 times by myself and it was constantly changing. New leaves were blowing everywhere and hard at that. And new limbs were lying in new places. Very fun 4 times.

Met up w/ Traynham (93 R1 FD3S Rx-7) and Masin (93 FD3S Rx-7). I spilled Dr. Pepper all in my seat and then we were off. haha.

Hit the mountain again and were moving really good despite the weather factors. Get to the bottom and we chill w/ a cop that looked exhausted. lol? and head back up. We run it a couple of more times and I do my picture thing and call it a night.

Very fun night, I haven't felt that pleased w/ my runs nor the performance of my car in a long time. Tonight was perfect besides it being 28* w/ strong wind gusts and me chilling on a guardrail snapping Tray and Masin on one of the switchbacks. Made for a good picture set tho.

Enjoy!

my internet is finally back up! nice as usual allen. how do you guys like the leaves in the front bumper of my car? the next time we came back up the hill i was running 94C water temp and about to **** my pants. then i got out and there were leaves completely filling every bit of space in the air inlet. pulled them all out and my temps dropped back to normal, 85C at idle and 75-77C once we got moving. amazing what airflow can do!!!
