Well here is the link to the in car video of me driving the dragon. Although the video does not look that fast due to the rigid camera, we were cruzing pretty well. The run is spaced out into two ten minute videos. Part two is in the related videos section. Enjoy!P.S. I think that part two is better, so if you watch one, watch that one.

lol thats my air fuel ratio. And I did average about 35 mph from the lookout to the end, which is not too bad considering all the turns.

Haha no, having an auto doesn't make you less cool! I just thought your car was a manual.

So, you guys ran the Dragon on the way back.... I hate you BOTH.... lol....I can't even begin to watch with my connection, but when I do get the chance, i'm sure it's incredible...No tickets? I saw a vid of it once, and there was like 30-40 cops from start to finish... in 11mi....!!!! EDIT: Ok I got myself to a Wi-Fi hotspot and dayum AJ, I didn't know your car had such a growl to it.. Looks like Subie Mecca to me... lol...

No, lol, I don't care if your automatic, but is it supposed to be a really hard hill to drive up? We have a lot of hills like that near where I live. =p How steep is it?
