LOL! I am the "master of 1st gear"! It was only 1 small section of road the Subie had a struggle with. 8% upgrade and 70hp with no running start thanks to a propane truck that decided it had to back out in front of me as I was trying to gain momentum was a contributing factor. Oh, and for the few that asked about the route, I got the OK from the organizers today and will post it here for you guys shortly.

Here is the route except for the last page, which was just from Corona Del mar beach to Mazda R&D.

Pictures from the return trip after running the Touge California in April. I visited Nissan Design America and the Petersen Museum:

Alvin, I see your car on page 14 of May auto week. Or a great clone: black, hardtop, 1500 grill, no over riders and no front plate. Cool
