Hey you check out the link I posted in my last post? It has the link to a thread that I started a while back about fun roads to drive on

 

Too bad more people haven't posted roads.

 

I will let you guy know. I have already made plans to do an open house that morning and travel to Richmond later to pick up something. Might be able to meet up afterwards.

 

I always tell myself I'm going to go to a meet and then I end up having to travel or have a tournament or something.

 

I was thinking perhaps meeting up at the Walmart parking lot in Arundel Mills then going for the drive. We should hit the road Landon mentioned for sure. I am free just about anytime so if anyone of you are interested let me know when works for you.

 

Possibly if I get my car back. Currently its down at Rosenthal Mazda (finish line performance in here) getting some work done. I will know by the end of today if it will be ready by tomorrow and it also depends on the time and how many others we get to go.

Its alot of stipulations there, but I hate having meets turn into only 3 cars showing ya know.

 

I was just told of another road out here in Ellicott City that might be of intrest to you. Its college ave near old ellicott city. Aparently people call it "7 hills" because of the amount of hills and drops on the road. From what im told people frequently get airborne driving too fast down this road. Looking at the map it looks like it might be fun to cruse down but not drive like an a**. I am going to take my rental car over there and do a slow drive and see what this road is all about and I will post my results in the road thread that I started.

For the location of the road see the attached map.

 

pretty windy (sp?) road. lots of cops roll around there b/c of people like us. there are a couple spots where people have gotten air and lost control.

 

OK so I drove that road SLOWLY and I gotta say anyone who takes that road faster than 25MPH has a death wish. I found that spot on the road that is all screwed up from people getting airborne and comming down hard. By the way, the nick name 7 hills was quite accurate for that road. The grades on that road are INSANE and the blind curves and hills do not help any either. If you are feeling bold by all means give that road a try but going anything faster than 25 will be a challenge for any car for sure!

 

I think tomorrow I am going to try the first road you recommended. Some friends told me 7 hills is just a death wish

 

Hey the road is worth a look but that road really is a death wish for fast drivers. Also keeping in mind when I did my drive on there I was in a rental full size ford taurus but still... jesus christ that road was CRAZY from the beginning to the end.

All that aside I think you will like "The test track", its fun but some of the curves can be deceiving (sp) so drive it once first normally and then when you feel ok with it go ahead and take it at full speed. One other note... watch out for the gravel on some parts. You will slide into a tree or something if your not careful.

 

Happy to report Patuxent road gets a thumbs up! If any of you are every looking to go for a drive let me know. I am always itching to get my 8 out there.

 

Screw 7 hills road man. Word of advice...do NOT get your girlfriend pissed off while shes driving on that road. Long story short, she drifted off the road at the top of one of the hills flying, swerved back on real hard and hit the brakes at the same time (no ABS) and started sliding sideways at an oncoming car. I sat there in the passenger seat just staring at the car coming praying they would stop. We ended up stopping just inches away from the car. Yeah that was a real fun drive the rest of the way home.

 

God damn... I bet you aint get any for a while LOL

In all seriousness it seems that horror stories of this road are all over the place! Piggy backing on what dan said earlier, i have heard from others about some serious wrecks on this road. I guess next I am going to hear that the road is haunted as well LOL. This makes me wonder why they do not either close the damn road or re-do the road since its so dangerous.

 

there is a haunted house on that road :]

but 7 hills is pretty crazy, I've had my fair share of "almosts" back when I was younger. now they're developing the area into neighborhoods so it's going to be 10x more dangerous when kids fly down that road

 

Haunted house? Close calls by just about everyone who has been on it? I think I will stay away from that one

 

I think that might be a wise choice LOL. Anyone else got some roads they want to submit to the forum?

 

Anyone here going to renn-fest this year?

Mike where you at man cause I know this is your thing!

 

If you guys are anywhere near Carroll County there are some roads out there near Prettyboy Resovoir where the traffic is light, the turns are many and the death wish factor is about a 5 out of 10. PM me and I'll send you directions. Me and my buddy (who has an s2000) go out there every Sunday and its a nice cruise. Pretty accessible from Timonium/Norther PA area too.

 

PM'd

 

Do a mapquest from wherever you are at to 3023 beckleysville rd, 21120. That will take you to the Prettyboy Resevoir dam and there are TONS of roads you can cruise back there. The thing is though try to remember where you're at because if you're not familiar with the roads its real easy to get lost. Maybe we'll set something up cause me and my buddy who has an S2000 go back there and cruise cause its a nice drive with some decent curves and the police are rarely back there.

 

Big ol' bump... its a little quiet in here.

 

hey people.. when are yall doin the cruise?

 

Saturday.

 

what time sat?.. cuz i work til 6pm.. if its goin to be a night cruise that would be awsome simular to how they did in tokyo drift.
