We can also go up angeles crest afterwards, if anyones interested. We need more cars though. I'll have a special for forum members.

Anybody interested?
I'm down for the run but not the dude fest where we gawk at each others cars.

Lol 2 out of 60 pair of sweaty ballz. I hope you show up in the Ferrari instead of the Z to get the spotlight.

I've only done Malibu Canyons at night and it is a blast. How is Angela's Crest?

Crest is actually not bad. Just think of malibu canyon but faster at some points and it never stops. lol

The best by far is the 23 of course, we actually went up there the other day with my car, wrx, EVO IX, and a gti. Scary night, but the outcome was a great canyon run.

The crest is a good run too. Wide roads, usually anywhere from 45 to 90 mph turns depending on how ballsy you are. the roads are clean of rocks and trash and i run it every night with no cops on my tail.

Basically the way to calculate on crest is if your car handles well, you double the speed limit. If your car handles above average add another 10 on top of it. If you have a really sick handling car, you can do double +15-20.

True that. We should roll up to mount wilson. tight turns, very short run up and down back to the crest. Its like a mini track!

One time my buddy and I went up there with his M3 and drove up to the 8k ft mark. It was very foggy and cold, so as we were coming back he got a flat tire.

Stupid M3's don't have spare tires and all they come with is a small air compressor to fill the tire with air. Well, luck wasn't on our side that night because the pump didn't work.

So we decided to walk down angeles crest in complete darkness with only a stupid emergency led flashlight bmw has in their vehicles. Luckily I flagged down a plow dude and we got a tow truck up there 3 hours later and towed the damn M down the mountain.

BTW The plow guy also mentioned angeles crest highway was created by chain gangs, and a lot of the guys working on it fell off and died. He said they always get people asking about the noises they heard at angeles crest.

Pretty spooky stuff, especially at night.
