hypnotic drive through virginia's skyland dr
ready to take a break from the daily grind? kick back and enjoy a drive through peak fall foliage, fog and mist. no speed thrills, no music and no sound but just a nice steady pace (10-15 mph over speed limit) through virginia's famed skyland drive. enjoy

hey Bob,
actually there was some traffic. had to edit some parts out. how are the pss9's? liked how they performed on my last track day Reston! gonna love the drive down skyline. traffic should be much lighter in a few weeks. nothing worst than getting stuck behind slow traffic on skyline

Thanks for posting this; I don't have time to watch it at the moment, but I was just thinking, why don't more people post about their drives? I realize not everyone wants to write to that extent, but using video is a perfect solution!

I am not much of a writer either but I am doing my best w the videos. like to do the the dragon's tail one of these days. arguably one of the most epic roads in us. 8 hours drive from me unfortunately

Speaking of the PSS9's - do you know if your shop reused the rear bump stops or are they discarded? I think Bilstein includes them under the dust covers, but I'm not sure. The manual explicitly states not to re-use the front bump stops but doesn't mention the rears... Thanks! |
