Looks like you were really using those starspecs! You should have night run billman
If you look at the beginning of the video you see billman heading the other way. His car is no where near stock anymore. I wanted to follow the FCPD crew but got back from a group drive too late that day

I am at wear bars on new star specs and the fronts are likely 50%. We drove a lot. The pavement is coarse and you are always mid turn with the tires hanging on for dear life.

LOL
Darcy, you did a great job driving but you were on the girls version of the Dragon run. I mean getting there on Thursday! Half the event was over. LMAO

Interstate getting to Fontanna is not allowed and no interstate to get home until you are out of the Mountains. We did 5500 kms with about 7 hours on Interstate to finish the home leg. From the hour I left to the hour I got home was 7 days 18 hours(5500 kms divided 176 hrs is 31.25 kph average including sleeping) Or put another way. 5500 kms at a likely average speed of 70kph means 10 hrs a day driving for 8 days straight. I was bushed at the end and have not looked at my car since. My previous years down there geve me the impression there were so many great roads that we never got on and after this years endurance run, I can confirm there are many roads that need a pass as well as some sights that have to be seen to believe. I still can't believe there was a NewYork City type building in the middle of nowhere cow pasture. Go figure

Good thing Fluky was not with us. He would not have had time to put on new brakes and rotors. LOL Inside joke.
