Just finished watching the video. For some reason I want to smack the girl in the back of the head and give her "the shocker" for good measure... She talks ENTIRELY too much while the dude is trying to drive.

Give me my 954rr on that road. Oh man. I hear those Elise` handle so damn awesome. Best handling cars some mags say. Fell in love with the one at the car show. Cant remember how much they are, but once the kid doesnt need a car seat anymore I might have to check those out.

cool vid but it would have been nice to see more of the road. the girl should have gotten a pimp slap for talking about band camp.

kinda reminds me of the old subie cruises.

Yeah I liked that angle better it REALLY gives you the idea of how damn high that is. I wonder what the elevation change is. My god. Gotta be 4k-5k feet or so? Maybe not, but it looks like it.

Only real men race downhill tho, of course that counts me out, but still. They were racing up the hill. come on guys.
