Default The Great Alaska Road Race

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/60/flyingcactus2.jpg"></center><p>or "The Flying Cactus" arrives in Fairbanks. Quite a car that S4, although I was not allowed to drive it very much. Clearly will out accellerate the TTQC/Borla, but not on the twisties.. We were fortunate, after the snowy/slushy/icey drive south to have virtually dry roads for the 360 mile drive north yesterday. It is a car that I might have selected had the TT not come along, hey it even has a workable cupholder. Love the dash, radio, heater, etc layout. Yes indeedy quite a car. Now where is that chip?

Default You must have a very well trained TT Dick!

I see both of you in the S4, yet nobody is in the TT! Does it just follow you everywhere you go, or does it require some sort of specialized Alaska call? Would you happen to have an MP3 of that call so that each of us in the lower 48 could give it a try? LOL

Default Yup, actually Mrs. Rascal and our daughter in S4

I'm freezing my butt off taking the pics... 34 degrees and about a 40 mph wind....

Default You're good Gary, yes, between Cantwell and the Park entrance

One of my favorite spots to take pics because of the changing and awesome character of the mountain in the background. I think it is about mile 130 out of Fairbanks.
