Looks pretty sweet! I have only been up HWY 276 and 178 up here in the upstate for some playtime but the journey you want to make looks like a long and fun ride!

I was going to go on Sunday but woke up at 1130 and figured it was too sketchy of a forecast to bother driving out for by then.

no idea yet. digging into the area around it to see if its in the middle of no where but make up for it by being in the middle of no where next to the middle of nowhere. Russ said it was worth the drive tho.

Hmmmm. Let me know if you guys put something together. The V is a fat pig but would still be a fun drive.

eh, throw a LSx in it, that will compress the springs & correct the camber...

I went Saturday and had a blast that I planned to go back Sunday but also got scared off by the weather!

its already lowered 1" it basically doesnt have a camber curve and its either 650 bucks for top hats to adjust camber or add a 10mm spacer to get my tire off the strut and then use camber bolts to drop them back in to 1.5* or so... basically not enough bro...

I'll let you know if I do something. I'm doing a drive after cars and coffee this month up to mount mitchell and all around... hope to be at sierra nevada brewery just south of asheville around 5.
