cherrokee run

[Leeelan]

well i think we should get a whole bunch of cars together and do some runs down cherokee landing went there with (Slowrolla, understeerking, barnacles240, viperbite and some guy in a civic cool guy though) on friday and it was quite fun. im not that good but its still fun. thinkin maybe we should get another run goin and hangout anybody that thinks this is a good idea let me know well work sumthin out not sure how to get there so we will need a designated s chassis to guide the group there

[hellfire]

Is this like a mountain run type thing?

If so sounds fun..

Tyler

[Leeelan]

ehhh not really mountain i guess one would call it a windy road...? it was really fun

[hellfire]

How long is said windy road?

Tyler

[Leeelan]

maybe took 4 or 5 minutes to complete not long but for slow drivers like my self id rather it be short so i wont get left behind for too long haha
(Atleast im honest:toung: )

[hellfire]

LoL.. Well cool. Count us in if we have a car running.

Tyler

[badass240]

[Sleepy122CID]

I'd be down for a mountain run. I'd feel better about it than a residential road =/

[1800DialKyle]

Yeah it was fun. I love that road. But I think it would be a lot more fun if we went up to the mountains or something. A run along 129 or 180. 180 is fun as shit. 1st gear turns!!

But we could do that road again. Let me know.

[Rbsil80]

iam down as soon as my car out of the shop. And ive got some pretty nice places to run up near where i live that are lot longer the 5 or ten mins long and there not in a residental area.

[Barnacles240]

im definately down for another run

[Leeelan]

well maybe less than 4 or 5 minutes i was just guestimating so thanks for callin me slow viper...and dominic thanks for the support i appreciate your contributions and i wasnt aware that you were the best driver in the world sorry for wasting your time by posting this thread

p.s. tarzan yamada didnt get his driving skill overnight nor did you so it would be nice if you wouldnt talk down on drivers that are not up to your master level yet

[Dominic49]

I'm not the best driver in the world... just one of the fastest on that road...

i was talkin about dominic but i would rather not get anything started between me and anyone else on the forums

[DeadDoc]

thats south cherrokee lane.... i live right around there.... be very careful when drivining that... ive known lots of cars to flip on the hairpins........ I almost ran into a garbage truck and a grabage man one day bc its so dense with trees.

Ive taken a few of the sharper turns around 4x mph.

if you run the road... post peopel with radios every so often to make sure no cars come on the road..... a thought a few of my friends have had.. or use the road closed signs I have... but I dunno bout that might attract a lot of attention.

[carlova78]

ooh that looks fun

[DeadDoc]

ooh that looks fun


doesnt look as curvey on google maps than it really is unless u view sat map. and wow thats old! Walmart isnt there yet!

[carlova78]

i didnt say anythng about a walmart

[DeadDoc]

i didnt say anythng about a walmart

walmart is between trickum road and s cher ln..... but on the sat image is old and doesnt show it. Hence why I said it.

[My Name Is NICK!]

I have the best kill on that road. But when ever you guys decide to go on a real mountain run then i'm in. Cherokee has too much traffic for me. I get scared :eek:

Agreed, residential road just doesn't seem good. All it would take is a 45 minute drive north to find some good, possibly safer (not that ripping through public roads could ever be 'safe'), fun roads...

I think I got it in about 2 min and 8 or 10 secs? Or something like that?

[Dominic49]

we did a 1:40 or so the other night... lotsa fun

[Hammerhead-i Eaglethrust]

I've done blood mountain before. It's a long way up, but it's a good road. It is long enough to get some serious brake fade goin on though.

I've been wanting to get some people together some time around fall for a camping trip/mountain run up in North Carolina at deals gap aka the tail of the dragon. I've never done that road, but I hear it's awesome.

You don't have the right brake fluid and lines then...

[Casey]

hahaha 1:40 is the time to beat

[down_shift]

have fun crashing on Cherokee Ln kiddies, Ill keep an eye for fresh skid marks.

[hellfire]

You don't have the right brake fluid and lines then...

What!?

Brake fluid, yes.

But lines!?

Whether you have Rubber, Stainless, PVC, or whatever lines your brake fade will be the same.

I think you meant.. "You don't have the right Fluid and Pads then"

Tyler

[~The_Duke~]

The issue I am having with brake fad right now is the lines are heating up and expanding when I push down the pedal. Which is causing it not to work as well.

Yes pads I forgot that one on the end there...

[Hammerhead-i Eaglethrust]

You don't have the right brake fluid and lines then...


duuh. They're stock.

[PNKfilms]

dude im up for this cause i run down this road for shits and giggles whenever im bored since i live near it so im up just let me know when and ill be there

[PNKfilms]

[FlatWoodsMonster]

Ahhh Shit its WRC now!!!!

And I'd love to hit Deal's Gap one day...

[~The_Duke~]

It is up in north ga. I forget the road numbers for the blood mountain run, but ya it is fun as hell. Sleepy you got good brakes?

Last time I was up there we were rolling with an S6 wagon. When we got off the mountain his brake rotors were smoking literally...
