    Tail of the Dragon Video

    Topping off our wonderful weekend the right way:

    Video footage of US 129 also known as "Tail of the Dragon" following behind Guy Foster along with Botond Pal. The famous section begins as we ascend up after the Final Turn Around for semi's and we see the first photo tent. About 12 minutes in, however the entire road was a blast for the scenery. Couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. If anyone is interested in what a GruppeM intake sounds like, my camera picks up the noise it produces throughout the journey quite well.

    Good video. What camera did you use ? Also, what's the speed limit in that area ?

    Things of that nature are never to be discussed.

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

    LOL ... Agreed. That's why I asked about the posted speed limit, not how fast you were driving.

    Very awesome. On a scale of one to ten can you rate that route compared to Saturday nights mountain run?

    10

    Saturday nights mountain run was fun as hell, but that was a teaser for this. Those sections where we wound our way up and down...multiply that by 10 and repeat it for 11 miles.
