I just glanced at their route and looks to be PCH straight to sunset. It wouldn't be hard to take a small detour however.

Our cars kick ass...but at the end of the day its not what you drive...its how you drive what you have.....I've kicked the shit out of a couple of cars that could and should have killed me...I just risked my life and they play it safe....I say one thing ..but when your in that seat....the ultimate driving machine alters your mind i swear!
I do agree that the thing about how you drive what you have, last nite I was on a bypass 3 lane road with 80km speed limit, no really long straight with a curve here and there. I was driving along the posted limit when I notice a bright Xenon coming up behind me fast, C4 convertible white fly pass me.

I know I couldn't beat it but hey when someone is going fast in front of you, you have to follow the crowd but then he starts kicking down and so I follow and he put more then a few car length in front of me but when he gets to the curve section I see him heavy braking and I catch up without braking and made the corner and I wasn't even trying hard. Then he accelerate on the stright again and heavy brake in corners so I manage to see his lights the whole time (read keep up with it)

So I pull off the ramp and think to myself the C4 should corner better than that, so must be the driver. If a normal driver were on board than certainly I would be left in the dust rather than his brake dust

Maybe they're keeping the mtn drive a secret so the Po-Po wont go after them or watch out for them. Some members there are really paranoid about releasing full routes posted on the net. Which I do understand...

Yeah, I always think it's best not to post street names or routes, but their PCH map seemed pretty detailed and it appears that a small group did a dry run over those same roads a few days ago. It looks to be more of a cruise, but if they choose to do so, taking a detour through the canyons wouldn't be that difficult.
