The road was dynamite and the truth is if they didn't have a stop sign I would never have caught them, as hard as I was trying. Silvy Brad Ilya Then it was just bliss. Excellent roads, fabulous weather, fun drivers and stunning scenery. I have not been this challenged since I followed the Texans down the Dragon. One strange thing though, I started noticing the ASC coming on and slowing the car for no apparent reason. Didn't matter what gear, or that the road was smooth, it wasn't at any particular point, curve or straightaway. It was REALLY annoying. Although I was missing my chip and CAI that doesn't explain it because I had no chip or CAI when I drove the Dragon last year and I didn't have a problem like this. Needless to say I was not at all happy about it but I kept trying. At one point I was behind a TT and I was pleased for the new experience.

On one of the early corners I noticed somethingwas amiss. Something was physically holding me back from goingdeep into the twisties. Then I remembered I had forgotten to give the electronic fun police the day off. When the amber glow ignited on my instrument panel I knew that I was on my own. I had to makesure that I didn't The first leg was like a warm up lap. Everyonewas getting comfortable in their cars. After getting everyonethrough a stop sign, people were weaving back and forth, warmingtheir tires as if anticipating a green flag to drop.
