Mt. Baldy Run #2

[PatrickShim]

I am thinking about doing another Mt. Baldy Run (the last one was FUN! and we had many NSXs present).

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 17TH! AT 11AM?

Last time, it was an exciting cruise up Mt. Baldy's twisting banked roads and reach heights of well over 3,000 feet. This was definitely not a road to test the speed skills, as one mistake could get you in trouble real fast. We kept the speeds reasonable to enjoy the fantastic scenery. Besides, going up this road isn't about speed, it's about the pure excitement of the tight left and right turns, and sometimes even surprising sharp 180-degree turns. We took the infamous Glendora Ridge Road, a 20-mile stretch of mountain road that require skills and focus from the drivers.

If you are interested, sign up here! So far a couple of Ferraris and a 620hp TechArt Porsche Turbo have signed up.

AND PLEASE CHECK THIS POST AGAIN. WE MIGHT HAVE TO CANCEL THE EVENT (DUE TO THE CLOSURE ON THE ROUTE).

Great! On top of registering on Prime, I'm thinking about getting myself an NSX, too!

Hope to see you again!

Awe wish I could attend!!! BTW.... I grew up in Claremont and those right and left 180 turns near the top are called the "switchbacks" and they can be nasty. Haven't been up there in a while... is the last section still a narrow single lane?

 

[PKim]

Count me in as maybe. Thanks.
