I been driving up hwy 9 since I was a high school. I also used to practice for hours on my AE86 when ever it rained.

In the past couple of years, its not worth driving up hwy9 anymore as too many drivers tend to get into accidents up there.

Now that I live 5min away from it, the only time I go up there is early in the morning (3AM) to dial my suspension on my S before a track event.

Do you play Initial D music in the background?

I think I have seen you there. The light N of 35 and Stop sign @236 really slowed it down. I go late night too for shock tuning and pad bedding.

I knew that was coming. I had my 86 before all the D1 craziness. Man, that piece of crap broke down everywhere. I sold it and shipped it out to some guy in the east coast.

Would a regular guy have a map like this?

Never said you were ordinary

I would love to data log a few runs and compare them to your 88%

Do you ever run it all the way to 1?

lets all let it out.. it is hard to drive slow. it is risky out there. practice i think is best. for me since i dont get out to often i am rusty on the corners. Sometimes trying to drive at high speeds will result in pics of my own. but don't be afraid of the mountains. get out there..

though i understand if you have had a ball squezing moment and you want to have children.

It looks like the car got clotheslined by the guardrail. Ouch. Sorry man, but we all learn. Hopefully from other people's mistakes. At least you're alive and not handicapped...
