And if you are really ambitious, have you driven the 470 mile Blue Ridge Parkway from Charlottesville, VA to the Smokies in NC?

All of these are great driving roads and good for break-in as they allow for a lot of speed and throttle variation.

Catoctin Mtn is an awesome drive! Have to pick the best time, as there are a lot of looky lous driving minivans that stop at every slight turn to take a picture or just - well, maybe check the brakes, especially thru the park. There's some cool stuff to get out and look at as well.
