use (only) 70 %:driving:

You put

double spaces at some very

Fun is what counts, but pushing a car with 50/50 dost in a corner on the street is risky if you go much past 70%.

:iagree:

look up Pretty Boy Reservoir and Loch Raven Reservoir on gmaps. The turns aren't "hairpins" per se, but they're very tight and very fun.
