Bald Peak Picture Shoot (Oregon) - 56K Beware!!!
Bald Peak Picture Shoot (Oregon) - 56K Beware!!!
My two buddies and myself have all bought new cars in the last year so we decided this weekend would be a great opportunity to do some driving on the winding roads of Bald Peak State Park near Hillsboro, Oregon (http://www.oregonstateparks.org/park_110.php). It's a beautiful drive and gave us quite a few opportunities to test out the handling capabilities with its combination of windy roads and minimal traffic.
Cars on the ride included a brand new red G35, 2006 GTO, and my SS Z...
Nothing special, but just figured I could share a few pictures on one of our breaks...

Nice pics man, it looks beautiful up there. I have never been to Oregon before. How did the car handle since you were up in that area testing it out? Did it pan out to your expectations or go above and beyond.
It is a gorgeous little drive, matrix!
To answer your question, with the stock suspension I'm pretty impressed. When I pushed it, I got it to break loose a couple times but I'm leery to do anything irresponsible on public roads so I was mainly aggressive, but not overly aggressive.
On the 22nd, I will be headed down to PIR and really see what it can do
In the next few weeks, my Stance coilovers and Hotchkis sways should arrive and then I'll do a compare/contrast...
