Yeah there is uaually a lot of traffic in the day time but at night you can usually run no problem
carbon canyon feels fun in a bimmer... not a miata
Please don't stop at Arrowhead lol. Let me show you what you're missing:
That's over 100 miles of straight up curves. One thing I love about the roads are that they are always paved well. This route is from the MR2OC forum 'Rim of the World' annual cruise.
What!? Every canyon feels good in a miata!
I can't help but notice that it seems like I am the only one who feels this way. How exactly is canyon running? How do you push your car to the limit? I feel like I'd be too scared seeing a side of a mountain, as well as having the possibility of spinning out and falling off. Am I the only paranoid parrot?
This = fun! You can't tell much from the map, but all corners are highly banked.
Pretty dangerous, lots of people have died on this road. Thank god there are guard rails.
don't even worry about canyon running. back when i was 16 that's all i cared about and wanted to be faster than everyone else.
then you grow up and realize you're doing it for the fun and excitement. not for bragging rights.
don't be scared and try going up one of those mountain or canyon roads during a sunrise or sunset and have a nice cruise with the top down going at your own pace.
as you do it more and more you'll naturally get a little faster and be braver thru some turns and that's where some people will mistake you for 'canyon running' cus' you can make your way up and down the road decently fast.
Enjoy the roads !

96 Montego, replacing a 95M... I miss: My running peeps in Tampa, running barefoot @ Clearwater Beach and First Choice BBQ, in Brandon. In So Cal I miss: The Malibu Canyons, CA 33 and In & Out Burgers ! I'm from Tampa, if I was from Tampa Bay, I'd be a fish!
almost straight as an arrow and smooth like buttah!

I like how you stopped it before San Juan Capo, thats not buttah there
Ortega is good when there's no traffic...
This is the typical SoCal reaction to people driving the 5 in and out of SJC:
OMG!! A CURVE! *brake*
You can substitute 'curve' with 'raindrop', 'flashing light', or 'pidgeon having sex with a guardrail' to the same effect.
