Here are some pics of the road:

Some beauty shots of my car (please make me a new avatar!):





Finally, my wife and I enjoying a beautiful day:



Thanks for looking!

Nah, just some places. I did have some 3-car passes though - this is one damn quick car! I can honestly say one point I did some acceleration that is the fastest I've ever driven from 25 to 80...
