Dont know if you evo guys partake in smaller group drives or just the big >40 trainrides?
Sounds awesome

If you're up for a night drive germantown road is traffic free and very entertaining and its pretty close, also, I believe I still have the map from the last drive I went on with shawn that took us from forged performance over the bridge of the gods up to indian heaven etc, that would be fun again, we did it in the rain last time I know it'd be even more fun in the dry.

I would probably be down depending on location and length. Not really interested in really long drives.

How about 80 miles or less? I assume that is very short by your standards?

iseed - Did you ever get your gauge installed?

Thank you Vicksen .


I'd say 80miles is about average distance . It all depened where and when. Sometimes you have to drive little extra to explore new roads.
