Nice. Despite many trips up to that area, I've never driven that road. My approach usually involves the 89 through Markleeville then on to S Lake. I'll have to check that one out next time in in your neighborhood.

Who else has one? Tail of the Dragon? I-70 through Kansas for top end tests? Maybe your SVX is best at stop/go traffic with the music turned up. This isn't street racing, in fact I doubt I break the 25mph speed limit the entire way down mine, but there has to be some place where your SVX shines. Where is your SVX's natural habitat?
