I have done a lot of mods to my Loyale this year but I didn't test them out as much as I usually do. I had cut back on my rallying because gas was kinda spendy this summer. Well last weekend I drove China Hat road which a nice long gravel road in the middle of no where. I drove a 40 mile section of it out and back. I drove the whole thing in fifth gear even through the open corners. The suby handled so well it blew my mind. It stayed right in line even over washboards throught the corners. I have no idea how fast I was going cause my speedometer doesn't work.I wasn't going scary fast I was going fun fast. A passenger would proablly have disagreed. Well I had know idea how fast i was going until I was near the end. I had actually slowed down a little because I was getting into a more populated area when I flew by a Forest Servive Ranger who I slowed down even more for. I didn't know those guy's have radar. Well he clocked me at 75mph and I know I was going faster than that for most of the drive. Guess what, he let me off. He didn't even give me a warning or tell me to slow down. whew!

hey dude long time no see...i'll be living in bend in dec. so will have to go rally it up since i have the coupe now

Let me Know when you get here. I still owe you for that RX sway bar.

yeah China Hat is fun to run on used to drive it a few years back a few times in my 70 bug and one time drove the whole road from Bend to Fort Rock and was doing an average of 65 mph too
