Looking forward to tossing it around a few of those twisty mountain roads. "Tail of the Dragon"(US129) at Deal's Gap is a must. You have the perfect auto to exploit all of it's fun.

Not too bad for a 16 year old car. It's the LS edition so it's pretty much loaded option wise.

Schu Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Dragon was a fun road... a great road, but its so tight and has a fairly low overall average speed rating, perfect for a little miata. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Schu, you are right, it is almost too tight in some spots, a lot of 1st gear running on a bike. I liked some of the other roads in that area better, Hwy 28, Cherokee Highway is spectacular. The Skyway was fun. The key is leaving early to avoid the traffic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Here in West Virginia we have some roads with tight switchbacks. One particular decreasing radius turn has a 15 MPH sign on it. There is NO WAY I could ever make it all the way up to 15! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
