Azusa canyons is hella fun also. Take Azusa canyons to Mt. Baldy road and follow that = like 20 miles of twists and turns. Also theres tons of awesome cliff shots for scenic group photos and such. Couple Dubs roll up there on saturdays
The run takes you from upper azusa to upland. Anyone that knows the area knows how far that is.

Why do you say that?maybe cause your not a racecar driver + testosterone = close calls or even a beat up car, and possibly injury or death to a family out driving to see the scenery. Weve seen it here on the boards before and some have been our friends, and I won't lie...i've been in some close calls ripping through the canyons with my older daughters in the car...It's just plain stupid. Even when you go there just to cruise...the guy in front of you starts showing off, the guy behind you is tailgating wanna be nascar...then you just fking go for it...
OK, I'm off the box.......:D

:stupid:
Been to a couple funerals for friends back in CO for the same shit. We used to run Deer Creek Canyon a lot back in the day. Unfortunately, being ejected out of my buddy Mike's baja bug didn't make for a good day the last time they did that. :mad:

I think Mr. Fitty and Mr. Wile_E pretty much sum it up.
Don't be a wreckless moron.

That's true, I mean i know many people who've almost died up while racing or simply speeding through Angela's Crest. Three different VW's totaled, my mom was in her fj60 Land Cruiser and was crashed into by a corvette, my brother's rear-ended an Eclipse up there, and we had a friend who almost died by losing it on that turn coming out of the tunnel- he flew off the cliff in his Mazda and fell over 500ft! He was in the Hotspital quite a while... I still have a lot of friends that like canyon racing, but I think the chances are too risky...

I do have to admit something I went on a solo run at like i say around 7:30 last night before work and I had been rainning over here... so it was wet and dark so I decided to go for a ride.... I get 3/4 no problem then I cant really say it was my fault or his fault because we all know what we go up there for you know what I mean? Anyways me and some guy/girl I dont know in a small pick up truck almost hit head on.... It scared the **** out of me LOL and ways for the last little bit which didnt have that much turns I took it pretty easy after that
