Default For anyone doing mountain driving up to Mt. Hamilton/ gumball rally

another ITR and myself were doing some mountain driving, and got pulled over by a cop by the CDF station. Cop only gave us a warning but said there's been reports of other cars like ours speeding up the mountain roads. I've only been there that one time and my friend twice, so I'm assuming other PY ITR's have been making runs up to the observatory, but anyway he let us slide but said if he sees anymore of our cars go by speeding (PY, I guess cus it stands out) he's gonna impound, so avoid Mt. Hamilton if your planning on doing some mountain driving. Just a heads up.

On a side note did anyone head up to SF to catch the beginnign of the gumball rally? I tried to go watch it but they left early at like 745 and I missed it. I wanted to see some exotics =/.

rule 1 about mountain/canyon driving spots:

you never post locations online. all it will do is let more people know where your little playground is and itll attract ricers.

yeah I was at it to see one the Dynospot Racing cars take off:

'02 996 turbo w/ K50 (GT2) motor, GIAC/ DSR chip, exhaust, etc... 523+whp & 500+trq.
He got pulled over for doing a HUGE 4-wheel burnout for the crowd, but let off with a warning.

regardless, u go mountain driving, u take the risk, you get busted? not anyone's problem but your own. even with that, naming places makes good places to drive inbetween driving events hot and a bust.
