Here is the route that we are taking for the cruise. My buddy pre-ran the route and said it's a lot of fun with some great twisty areas. We are going to meet at Nick's at 4:00p.m. and leave on the cruise hopefully by 4:30. This should get us back in plenty of time for the meet at 6:30. See you guys there

Your buddy is a hell of a guy. I think on this site, most people know who he is.  BTW, said buddy hasn't copmleted the return leg yet, but we'll probably just shoot over to Euclid and down to Orangethorpe.

I know he is, but I post this on 25+ boards and some people might not know who he is yet  |

The Canyon between C and D is one of the best, if not the best driving road local to these parts. It is VERY technical, you'll be continually steering, double apex turns, decreasing radius turns, continuous elevation change, on and off camber turns, damn narrow with an okay surface. Absolutely PERFECT for a ralley style car or shorter wheelbase sports car. |
Should I bother putting on the sport cups  or will nobody be able to keep up with the PS2s  . |

No joke, you could probably run the whole thing in 1st, with touches of 2nd, it's that tight. It's not really well suited to a Vette's strenghts, but a ralley car. But it'll be fun for everyone who manages to keep i on the road.

Even if you could run it in first, I would run it in second. Much smoother throttle application. I did an autocross in third ( was too load in second  97db) and only lost about 2 seconds.
Let the tires warm up and you'd be suprised. 
I would like to get with a fast group and video a canyon run. Nothing super illegal. Just some spirited driving and good lines. |

Sounds like a hoot. I'll say this little stretch of road is technical enough that you'd need to run it several times before stepping into the throttle or bad things will happen. So we need to keep an eye on Sean.
