Default X5 vs. Tail of the Dragon (pics/video from this weekend)

Couldn't attend springfest, was busy chasing down M3's on the dragon.

Fun colors, no brake fade.



More random pics.

Looks like a blast. I'd love to run the E30 there.

You sir, are excused from the springfest meet. I'd have opted for the dragon as well.

If that was an autocross, the Cherohala Skyway was a roadcourse. Wish I had video of SUV achieving flight after a dip at ~115 mph. Genuine oh-shit moment.

awesome....my buddy went there last month in his genesis turbo coupe. He had a blast, and his car is stock. I bet you had a really really good time in the dinan x5. and like flite says, definitely excused from springfest for a weekend at the dragon.

I made the 8hr drive to run these, totally worth it, hoping to return sometime but probably won't make it before next year. I like the skyway better but probably because I was in a stock fwd auto 4cyl 4 door when I went. If anyone has the chance to go, just run it with whatever you drive, it'll humble almost anyone in short order.

Cool. My buddys were down there 2 weeks ago on their bikes. I'll be going in a couple months on mine, can't wait. They said there were a couple bugatti veyrons and ferraris down there when they went.
