Everything is a freaking grid. Go 40 km north. Still a grid.

I tried to go up north and have a go.... but for me, hard accelerations are pointless. I need to feel the road. Even if I don't go crazy, I like to be engaged while driving.

This is me in my natural habitat (Carpathian Mountains - Transfaragasan & TransAlpina roads).



So with that in mind... anyone in Toronto know of good places to go other than a race track? I'm near DVP and 401

Whoooahhhhh, I admire your driving skills if that's your preference and can enjoy those curves. I'd be driving like grandpa on that road!

Looks fun, but with my luck I'd get stuck behind grandpa on that road.

Nice! I hope you've seen the episode of Top Gear when they visited. One of their best!!

By the way that is the Stevlio in Italy.
Ridden a bicycle up and down it never driven it.

A fellow Romanian in the pothole capital of the world I see. I hear you it's no fun. Get up to Port Perry and the like, better roads for some fun up there.

Yes this is the Stelvio in the Alps.

Unfortunately no car will make the grid fun.

I can appreciate the long curves, but those tight ones? Not for me at all.

How many times you mean? Haha. Love it.

I stand corrected - I grabbed a random photo off google and didn't analyze it well enough. Here's the right one




Oh man I love the tight turns. It's such a rush staying in high gear and exiting out of it. I will admit, no one has ever liked driving with me when I go back home.



Regarding the potholes - while I agree, the Transfaragasan and Transalpina roads are actually very well maintained, in most part. I went just last year on Transalpina and it was in very good condition.


And thanks for the suggestion out east!

These turns are not as tight as the one in your original photos, so maybe I'd be driving these like a younger grandpa, but I can appreciate how others would love it.
