Ready for an epic drive?

Ok everyone, I head back to Miami to pick the car up in just over a week as I have a hell of a route planned to PA... Aiming for serious driver envy here 👍🏻

I have purchased a couple of new toys to help cope with some of the journey including:

40mm lowering springs
Lower front strut brace
Mintex M1144 front brake pads

Nothing to serious, but might help some of the journey.. Intrigued? Read on my friends!

Hollywood FL - Windemere FL

Friends in Windemere from my hometown - saw them earlier this year; would be rude just to pass by!

Windemere FL - Savanah GA

Made friends here, not that it's a hard feat in GA - everyone's so friendly! The most beautiful town too. And a good night out!

Savanah GA - Atlanta GA

I'm too close to miss it - heard only good things :) PLUS... It's on the way to the next leg...

Atlanta GA - Cherohala Skyway TN

Allegedly on the the best driving roads the US has on offer.
Leads into.... 

Cherohala Skyway TN - Tail of the Dragon, Robinsville NC


Coined 'the most bad-ass stretch of US road ever built', this terrifying leg of the journey sports no less than 318 twists and turns over just 11 miles (see why I need the upgraded brake pads?!)

Tail of the Dragon NC - Knoxville TN

Friends here that I have promised to see. Looking forward to be taken out to some gorgeous sprigs and waterfalls :)


Knoxville TN - Shenandoah National Park VA


Onto the next marvellous bit of driving heaven and may I introduce you to 105 miles (if I get the route right!) of twists and turns through one of Virginia's most beautiful National Parks. Speed limit all the way through is 35, so I intend to take in some of the scenery more so than drive hard, but it should still be able to have a bit of fun in the turns 👍🏻

Shenandoah National Park VA - Baltimore MD

Pal that lives here gonna show me around Washinton DC :)

And the final leg.....

Baltimore MD - Equinunk PA

My final destination; where I will be spending the summer. The roads here are all pretty epic in themselves so intend to have a good couple of months here :)

Watch this space....
