Evo and Bimmers + Sweet canyon road

So I belong to a Land Cruiser club and there is a small group of us that spend a lot of time offroad. It just so happens that several of us are car enthusiats as well. Most of them have BMWs but we can appreciate lots of different cars. So four of us got together Monday afternoon and hit a really cool road not too far from home for us. The road is about 10 miles of really nice asphalt with good banking in many of the corners. Lots of turns. Followed by a very long straightway with several whoops (small hills and dips).

Sorry the pics don't show much more action but we were too busy driving through the fun stuff to take many pics.

Cars consisted of my Evo VIII, a 2004 M5 with coilovers and exhaust, a 2004 M3 with about $15K worth of coilovers, brake upgrades, exhaust, intake etc. and a 1987 325 IS. My buddy just finished rebuilding the motor on this car and it is really a super fun little car. I was impressed with how well he kept up with us through the twisties. He took most of these pics too by hanging the camera out of the sunroof.

Here's the road from Google Maps.



And the rest of the pics.







hard to tell but we were moving pretty good here.

You guys should do the Mt. Nebo loop in the middle of the night before it snows too much. That road is wicked. My favorite in Utah. You just have to do it mid-week at like 1 AM.
