That is a fun road. I've only ridden it on the motorocycle. I'll have to try it in the Z sometime.

What a great vid. I bet that Prius driver was not amused Makes me want to hop in the Z and go canyon carving right now! I'm lucky to have a great canyon road just a few minutes away.

I don't think I've driven that road but I grew up in SoCal and recognized the landscape immediately. That road looks like crazy fun.

As my daily driver I love the spirited driving I get to do in it. Although I rarely take it up past about 5k rpm, I will say that when you get to an on ramp it's amazing how fast that car can get up to speed.
