Default Tail of the Dragon video

Hey guys, finally got something thrown together. Not the greatest work, but still worth a look I think. Starts out with footage of a Skyline chasing me up the mountain, and ends with me following orion84gsl. Great roads!

Very cool vid. It's unfortunate that you couldn't get much further from the Dragon than where I live and still be in the U.S. One of these years I should make a point of going anyway.

Hawaii or Alaska? Or did you mean the contiguous US?

It was a blast. One of these days I'll get around to loading up my videos from that. Youtube is a pain in the ass and the videos have to be under 10 minutes. Mine are upwards of 25 minutes. I have more editing to do.

It definitely a cool road to run, I went there w/ our local fwd Mopar club. I think everyone into handling cars should go there at least once.

i took the Rx-8 there two years ago. it was my first time going. i had such a blast, considering it was Sunday and pretty much everyone had already left. unfortunately, i was unable to go last year and again this year. life sucks, what can i say? i can't wait to get another Rx-7 and be able to take that there someday. until then, i look forward to taking the 8 there again.
