I like that idea of making everyone responsible for bringing their own copy of the map/directions.

I never know how many to bring for Z trips and hate to run out or print too many. Plus with this group, having to print 50+ for one of the big runs gets costly, especially in color.

I know I sent you a PM and back about shooting still shots but if you're not busy, lemme know. I found a place in Lockerbie Square downtown I'd love to take a couple pics.


I need to seriously clean the car for a show in a couple of weeks. After I get all that done, let's schedule a time for a shoot. I'm almost always available these days.

Left onto E Farr Rd - possible ROUGH, I still need to drive it
Right onto E Anderson Rd - possible ROUGH, was a year ago.

Left onto N Miller - VERY ROUGH
Straight onto N Shilo - EXTREMELY ROUGH

have fun! some of us do have low profile tires and VERY expensive magneesium wheels and finicy cars just looking for an excuse to break

Dan...that's why I sacrifice and go run these roads alone before taking others on them and post warnings of trouble when possible. The above ROUGH sections were posted for CS's benefit to go beat up the Subie. Hoping he'll check out the E Farr Rd to west on E Anderson for me. I was crawling at a snail's pace on Miller, Shilo & Boltinghouse. Ugh...those were BAD. But if/when they repave them...look out! Cool roads then.

Yes you know your vettes, I had a 425 hp 396 65 vette, It was the first year for a big block and 4 wheel disk brakes.

66 was the first year for the 427 cars. There were several ratings for HP. The 425 hp car was one 4 barrel. However in 67 there was a 435 HP option that was 3 2 barrel carbs. Both were solid lifter cars with 7000 rpm redlins. That is a ton of revs for a big block. For their time they were blindingly fast.

When I sold mine I thought there would never be another car that would beat it. The C6Z06 would totally blow away a 67 435 hp car today. Plus it turns and it stops. At the same time the Bose is playing Led Zepplin and Onstar tells me if I need a oil change and lets me use the phone. The diffrence in tecnology is staggering.......


Yea...but don't you long to have that C2 still in the quiver???

Did you make that change or has it always been like that? I tried to attach a pdf in the past and it wouldn't let me. Once I changed it to a jpg and was able to attach it.

gimme a call when you do this. we'll take Jasons GPS just in case lol.

Yuki...love to have you and your camera along. TrixZee and I talked about how many spots we saw that would make good photog sites if we dropped someone off and did runs past them.

Same for some really awesome video opportunities. Set-up, do a few runs and there'd be some great footage. Especially with radios stationed for announcing all clear for the runs. Makes me giddy with the possibilities!!!

Webby...is there a way to save maps, route descriptions, etc to this site? Allows people to post known routes so folks can download them if they want to go exploring. I don't think we are allowed to attach pdf files, only jpgs/gifs.

I would want these some place only visible by members along with the disclaimer, explore the new world at your own risk! Some of the roads change from gravel to asphalt to gravel over a year or two. Same goes for potholes!
Thanks

If the DOT ever repaves N Miller and N Shilo, I will be one very happy boy.
DOT had recently been trough the area filling potholes. They missed a few...OK... more than a few.

I'm still working on the map of this section. Will have finished by this weekend.

TrixZee and I mapped out a 2.5 hour backroads drive from Franklin to Oliver Winery. The above is part of it.
