ROAD REVIEW - GT3RS Takes on HEAD of the DRAGON

**A Day at the Track: Our Mountain Road Adventure**

We decided to take our car on a thrilling ride through some of the most scenic mountain roads, and what better way to do that than by following the infamous "Head of the Dragon" road? As we set off, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and nervousness. The road was only 80 miles long, but its 9% grade made it a challenging drive that required focus and skill.

**A Ride Like No Other**

As we climbed higher into the mountains, the scenery became more breathtaking with each passing mile. We passed by rolling hills, dense forests, and even some beautiful vistas that seemed to stretch on forever. I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the natural beauty surrounding us, and I found myself geeking out over the car's performance on the winding roads.

**A Chat with Fellow Enthusiasts**

As we stopped to admire the views, we had the opportunity to chat with some fellow enthusiasts who were equally passionate about cars and driving. We talked about our shared love of speed and the thrill of taking corners at high speeds. It was clear that these roads were a favorite among locals, and they were happy to share their expertise with us.

**The Sign That Changed Everything**

As we continued on our journey, we came across a small sign that caught our eye. It read "13-Under" - the entrance to what turned out to be a racing track. We couldn't believe our luck - we had stumbled upon something special. The sign seemed to appear out of nowhere, and we felt like we were in for a treat.

**A Glimpse into Golfing Culture**

As we took in the sights and sounds of the track, I couldn't help but think about what it would be like to visit a golf course. The scenery was so peaceful and serene that I imagined myself strolling through a beautiful green, surrounded by lush trees and perfectly manicured grass. Of course, this was not a golf course - we were at a racing track!

**The Pump: A Piece of Racing History**

As we continued our exploration, we came across an old pump that seemed to be part of the track's infrastructure. It was clear that this was no ordinary pump - it had been in use for years and had seen its fair share of action. We took a moment to appreciate its importance in the history of racing.

**A Little Divergence from the Plan**

As we set out on our adventure, I had planned to visit some other scenic roads, including 16, which was located south of West Virginia in what I believed was Virginia. However, as we climbed higher into the mountains, I decided to take a detour and explore the Head of the Dragon instead. It ended up being one of the highlights of our trip.

**The Final Destination: Danville**

After a thrilling ride through the mountains, we arrived at our final destination - the track in Danville. We were excited to spend the next couple of days exploring this racing circuit and taking in all that it had to offer. If you're planning on visiting, I've got some good news for you - there's a special discount available if you use my link in the description.

**A Call to Adventure**

As we look back on our adventure, we can't help but feel inspired by the thrill of the drive and the natural beauty that surrounded us. If you're looking for a new road to explore or simply want to experience some of the most scenic mountain roads out there, then this is definitely worth checking out. Who knows - you might just find yourself geeking out over some hills as much as we did!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's up guys today's gonna be a good day so two favorite things scenic backroads we're going to the head of the dragon on the tail the dragon I've been researching and trying to figure out how to do this route instead of my stupid routes that get us wound up on dirt roads and we're going to sheets I don't know whether sheets is better than wah wah now you guys can make the argument but this is you know my Woodward hometown snack before Wawa's really existed or started popping up where I would be we'd take the Woodward runs two sheets whenever we got a break pretty good but no but you would work used to rest you weren't used boy yeah did I ever go okay that make sense it was pretty funny on the inside saman is no hoodie or I should see Ashley a factory with invisible on the back and when they go I don't suppose army that Porsche damn he's obviously joking around people are cool like alright let's go over it's about a 40-minute drive to the start let's see if we can do it in 20 I heard there's lots of cops so this might be I got arrested and would you three RS taking away video free not again sometimes I like to pretend I have a Sigma I want to put a long stick it's like a bear it's obviously more satisfying to battle sometimes because it makes me feel like I'm driving a station so I'm table to Dragon you stuck behind trailers in grandma's driving slow on head of the dragon get stuck behind you TVs what is this I want my money back now we're not on that of a jacket and we're heading to it so ironically we've left from the same area that earlier we went through the same area where we did the off-roading so kind of everything you're just gonna happen to be the same spot do you think I didn't like Post Road Atlanta it is really cool I may sound really ignorant but it's called coal Heritage Road so it's the same row that we're on the floor this is kind of the start of the head of the dragon loop and it's like these winding mountain roads and then dump you into these little towns so it kind of things you gotta go slow through towns but it's cool because it feels like you've gone through all these like little like look look at this western town patina the next election be what we should get her in town there's a bye-bye phrase it looks baked the trees looked fake literally that's probably by if I cracked up chipped up access you let me know that is very high like I never seen green cheese before well I know oh my god typically I'd be complaining by the bumpy roads but they kind of make you go slower and actually appreciate all scenery and stuff so thanks on ridiculous for that 3psi gain from cold to warm i can really really feel on this car so if dude's gonna air the bags down alright from the direction we can't we took our first left on to stay on the 52 know what's cool about it is them for the beginning half it's a dual wait 90 roads you can actually properly affects corners with that I don't know if people hate on the cross at the double-a line but if there's no power this is kind of turning to a road review since I'm not really comfortable driving the heart on these roads the thing is with a lot of bumps on the roads you don't know if you're really pushing the car it could be enough to upset it or really the braking zone so this we just turn on 80 South and 80 South appears to be a nice links up to the bottom or will bring us back east but we are stuck riding some tractors and it seems like it's a heavier traffic Road definitely lots of potholes and stuff so I think it's more of like a connector than an actual like good road halfway down 80 now that started to open up and read about us yeah about to say that there weren't any warehouse there was a nice spirited sectional Grampa because I thought it'd be a cool idea to have some you guys meet up and do the cruise with us but I thought about it too last minute so it was able to come out maybe in the future for you yours is like this any guys want to join them my biggest concern is that people would try to come out and probably would get hurt and I would probably be like a screening process to make sure you are have a car that's capable I'm teaming up in a safe manner so we met with a cop at the at the stop sign and he's a nicely gestured us to go in front of him and now we're stuck going to speed limit with my radar detector going off and hid behind us and I think he's waiting for us to slip up and that or just let's look at my fat ass bye bye bye bye see you all dude he turned around detectors are illegal in Virginia I don't know about West Virginia but I will tell you if you have a radar detector who used to ignoring K man because normally I don't know at least where we're from kevin has never anything they do front caveman their cop cars are old and prehistoric here and they still run caveman so look out as I expected 83 is the nicest run so far this is one on the bottom it looks laggy it's awesome but like literally as you go like you're like what is that thing the whole truck just sitting there plus it's a cliff right there guys like this is like back up switch back not a lot to run out now can clearly see if there's cars going because it is kind of open reminds me of some of the roads that we didn't know the bugs got a big watch all that amazing dude she'll never been around roads I'm glad that we finally have solid god reference the omen on the dragon fearful into jeans on some corners on this road so far with how hard we've been driving the backseat cold is 0.80 go out I'd be beat up by now my back yo you hurt oh geez 161 covered in rocks I'm gonna do my best to make a little map really cool thing a little pamphlet yeah I'm gonna drive I'm scared really go fast here they take a WRX out here and of course of course yeah showman either got a showman nation I'll see about driving out here my way around mm sting this is look at this this does not feel like no experience transported rocks per second else it let the press yeah I don't know what we did mileage wise but considering we've been driving hard for like four hours the fact that we only use 10 gallons of gas is pretty sick I've like that's not that bad I keep on having to tell big boost to settle down I think I've been a bad influence on him because driving the truck and trailer he's been literally losing people in these twisties what's the secret how do you get that trailer around these corners so fast look they're even telling you to slow down over here they know what you've been up to so I think I'll burn out some crazy technique because I always see him he's finagling with the trailer brake down here and I think he he times that trailer brake to help plant the front end of the truck and I think he's able to get a little bit more traction up front and really power through the corners that way originally I was a little bit sketched out having the Porsche in the back and you know him driving his spirit as he is with the truck but I did determine that his technique is flawless and I do think that the portion is safe back there was you know someone was driving his artist Alberto's diamond I mean the last time last last thing you heard about someone driving a trailer if I remember correctly you had the wrong size ball for your hitch and he unloaded the car and it came off didn't it if you never did that oh wait cows nope just some you cows friends shiny gray shiny grass dog real dog dog oh what a car full of idiots including myself disclaimer because he got a minute maybe interested me too I'm also stupid and Wow super Oh Matt I bet he's got a vape oh you need your facts oh my god let's unload the Porsche please we I mean we could but it'd be kind of unnecessary it's only 80 miles but dude this is tight isn't it I don't know how long look at the moment you're way up here 9% grade makes four miles may only get a couple floor boys geeking out over some Hills whoa people you always got you damn Europeans on there like oh I Drive like this to my work every day all my roads they're much smaller much wider than this and I hit them with my mice ate mice eat mice at my future all my cars that you don't have that has very little horsepower and I Drive much better than you stupid American very fast lots of grip no one can keep up with me blue rods are not even why I did not follow my bicycle that's that's what I feel like reading in the comment section when you guys go off all right just let us let us enjoy our Hills okay all right got rent over brothers geeking out I guess he's been here before it's typical middle of nowhere and you stumble upon a racetrack though you see the little sign all the way over there welcome back to 13-under sign it's a sign after one Virginia's for racing people you have the sign room the living deer who do you think won gommi look I'm gonna do you it was actually your friend killed boy that's good it's so scenic hakuna reminds me of what it would look like going to a golf course not that I've ever been to a golf course I just feel like in my head this is what it would look like if you're pulling up to a golf course just maybe it's the golf cart and the nice building with a nice grass and things that are making me feel like I'm gonna and maybe look at all the golf carts I bet they got a golf course over a dozen other golfers someone go drill yeah you are going over there or what I spy with my little eye a big old rig the big ol buted bag we never use that thing I didn't forget remember that I had one of them show me I go playing some hey okay friends hey food got to the hose dude hoses sorry relax sorry sorry all right keep it at least light from the car on the car on the car so I got the biggest hug you're doing as a signet stop let me I'll share some six sons I mean I'm a stud see you guys know the water pressure is not the greatest so it's not that bad but it's okay for now actually but it's a really really really old pump like ancient type style I just want to clarify George is talking like you'd want to watch some my portion who haven't watched it yet I don't know why I mean I've watched I mean I am I am NOT a car washer I am a detailer it's good of a detail as you are if there's a scratch on this car I want to know it was from either mere Matt Mormon all right I mean if I scratch it I'll admit it but guys just what I have to each other from these things phone rings dude let me have fun it's like you know how it's different every painters got a different way I got some throwing out so I uh I looked at your house kind of but I don't want to wash it I don't want to film this you guys complaining you need some phones grab a dub dub all right guys so in regards to this video going around those mountain roads is there something that I wanted to do especially reading about the head of the dragon having been to the tail track and I was curious kind of what the deal was with that in mind I know I definitely didn't document it as best as I probably could have it didn't really do much with GoPros and again there's a lot of traffic and we couldn't really drive that spirited so it would have looked dumb anyway but I hope that little map that I put together made it a little bit more interesting it took a lot of extra time to kind of go through and label each section now it's probably not entirely accurate but if you do ever have the urge to go explore maybe that helps you a little bit I also know that 16 is a really cool road especially when you go south of West Virginia into what I believe is Virginia south of Tazewell I found that one on the map and that was originally the road that I wanted to hit but I wound up doing the head of the dragon up top instead of that which is the back of the Dragon etc whatever but anyway we are here in Danville now but we're gonna be at the track vir for the next couple days for hyper-fast as a reminder if you guys want a discount on tickets if you're coming I'll put that link in the description and we will see you there anything Shawn are you doing food food friends guyswhat's up guys today's gonna be a good day so two favorite things scenic backroads we're going to the head of the dragon on the tail the dragon I've been researching and trying to figure out how to do this route instead of my stupid
