Very cool vids! Now that I looked at it, yea that was a no-no passing there. I guess I was just too excited. Love the title of the videos too. I did see it the first time I looped back to the start. Perhaps I should have picked it up.

11:07 of the eastbound section of Skaggs. Pass only on straights with clear sight, my friends.

Some corners have great visibility, unfortunately this one doesn't.

Andrew set a great example of how street driving should be done. Patience

It's a long vid. I listed some highlights in the comment section of the vid. Part 2 I'll post later on.

I agree. Careful Baron. Don't want a type S to go down now. I damaged my ap1 on skaggs 2 years ago. Not fun.
