Default Boston Mountain Tour - November 8, 9, and 10th

I am going to drive to Harrison, Arkansas to participate in Boston Mountain Tour (BMT). This is a great all day drive through the Ozark Mountains on Saturday, November 9th. I did this two years ago and the Fall colors and roads were wonderful.
Here is the link to Arkansas BMT thread: https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/105...3-harrison-ar/

I will leave Thursday evening and drive half way to Dumas, AR. On Friday I will drive scenic Hwy 7 from Hot Springs to Harrison, AR.
Here is the google route: https://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&sou...m&z=6&dirflg=d

Only taking one day of vacation to have a super driving adventure.

Attached are two videos that capture the Bush Mountain Road which was our last stint of the day.
Fast sweepers in 4th and 5th gear. Enjoy!

Another video: Late Morning Run. Kind of interesting because we took some wrong turns; but, we all voted to do the Twistys Twice!

I am working on the last video which captures the "Twistys" and another S2000 group fly by.

Okay, this is the video that I am really excited to post because it shows the "Twistys". We did it twice and I am not sure that was an accident. Andy claimed to have missed a turn. No one was disappointed.

7:50 - S2000 flyby of another group. Note the "Gulf" Miata and exhaust.
10:24 - Turn around and do it again.
10:59 - Yes, that is an Aston Martin (wicked exhaust)
17:10 - Second run through the "Twistys".
23:32 - "Supercalifragilistic", "Do Again"

Enjoy the video. Thanks again to Andy for leading and the tailgunner for directional suggestions to Andy!

I enjoyed yours and Michelle's commentary.

Look at the GPS.
Oh my lord! Oh my gosh! This is crazy...
