I vote it the best cruise ever hands down!!!!!

It's so good to see / meet new members. And Sal, Phil, Marcus and I got a good warm up / pre cruise ;-)

That is a brilliant road, thought I'd died and gone to twistie heaven :-) I'm totally spent, all that concentrating, I must cruise more often.

The sad news is for some reason my dash cam didn't record any footage through the mountains?! ;-( hopefully Alan captured the red blue alternating CJ cruise line that was totally unplanned!!

I will load my pics tomorrow.

Hope everyone got home safe.

I would like to thank clubcj for the following things,

1. showing me that I need suspension upgrades
2. showing me I need better brakes
3. showing me I need more power
4. showing me I need better tyres
5. seeing smoke come from my brake pads for the first time.......

Was an awesome day!! Thanks for alan organizing the cruise and for pulling over while I waited for everything to cool down, Probably will be my last mountain stuff for awhile so I can save!

1. +1
2. +1
3. +1
4. +1
5. +... well, I could smell more than one thing burning, but I most definitely had soggy brakes by the bottom of the mountain! (cj-blue) *flame*


We must do it again!
*peace*

haha yes! was for sure! going from a n15 sss with a good amount of suspenion work to a awd turbo with not much suspension work, actually showed me how much suspension shouldn't be looked over
