Expecting more what? in what way? Not sure what you mean....

I thought it was a beautiful road, nice scenery, depending how fast you drive it, it is fun also.

Never did the BRP. we were supposed to ride it all the way down one year, but never did

 

If you want to see the photos

I did the run on August 6th it was right around noon. Killboy had some, but none that I really wanted to buy.

Perhaps I'll convince the wife to let me do that again next year

 

Awesome stuff, thanks for sharing. I have heard of this Tail of the Dragon but I refuse to do it until I finally get behind the wheel of my own Camaro. when I joined this site I said it would only be a few years, now it looks like a few years from now!

Anyway, great pics man!

 

There wasn't a lot of nice beautiful mountain scenery. Most of the road was just plain and nothing special. I drove it about a year after I drove the BRP from Cherokee, NC to Asheville, NC, so I guess I was probably comparing the 2 roads. Nothing against the Skyway, but you have to drive the BRP at some point if you ever get the chance! The BRP is just awesome throughout. There are some really cool pull offs that you just check out the scenery. The winding mountainous roads are just really fun also!

 

i love it.

 

Oh, Ok, now i understand... I can't wait to do a trip through the BRP on the way to Deals Gap.

 

Thanks. I can see how some don't like it, but I really think one should look at it in person and view the car from other angles. Besides it actually helps me in backing the car into a parking space at work.

I took the foothills parkway on the way over from Townsend and that was nice looking there. I do want to do the Blue Ridge Parkway sometime as well.

 

There are few cool roads off the foothills, but you have to watch out for them, they turn to gravel quick, my buddy and his wife came around a corner to a gravel truck spilling his load... they went down but were ok.

Not good roads for cars that care about rock chips

 

your spoiler would look way better if gm had made it about 2" lower. it looks too tall. great pictures though.

 

I think if you see it in person you will understand why it is that tall.
It is the right height from the front of the trunk lid. Due to the angle the back is taller. Had it been any shorter the way the wing goes along with the lines of the car, it wouldn't have matched.





Besides I've seen 3rd Gen's with similar wings.

 

looks better on the 3rd gen IMO.

 

You will have a blast!
