PS: What time of year did you go there? I was just wondering bc of all the snow on the sides of the road.

Update

Where we want to go: The Stelvio Pass located in Italy, at 2757 m (9045 feet) is the highest paved mountain pass in the Eastern Alps. The pass was also picked by the British automotive show Top Gear as its choice for the "greatest driving road in the world", although their search was concentrated only in Europe. This conclusion was reached after the team went in search of a road that would satisfy every "petrolhead's" driving fantasies in the premiere of the show's 10th season. Top Gear later decided that the Transfăgărăşan Highway in Romania was possibly a superior driving road. (Next year )

I plan to arrive 15 or 16 June to Malles Veneto, trying to get group rates at Biohotel Panorama in Val Venosta. Then depending on the group and when the majority of us can drive the pass and drive to Davos....we do that, whether 16 or 17 June. Stay overnight in Davos and depart 18 June.

Thoughts? Any ideas for side trips and excursions?

hopefully im not the only one coming from k-town. i dont have a GPS, and i always get lost.

does anyone mind if an evo guy tags along? (well might not be an evo, he hasnt bought the car yet) i told him if he was allowed to come, he would have to be in the back, so he didnt hold up any of the fast cars

Hahaha That would have to be one bad ass evo to keep up with an FBO 135i. I have a Navigon live that covers every european country so we'll be fine.
