Tail of the Dragonat Deals Gap has 318 mostly hair pin turns in 11 miles and ascends to 1900ft. It is out our way! Done it several times! It's a great ride! There will always be someone driving or riding something on your bumper no matter how fast you go! Kind of like driving through Atlanta at rush hour! The people on that road are nuts! They drive that way too! When you drive it DO NOT SIGHT SEE, watch the road and what comes around the corner coming the other way, usually on your side of the road at Mach 2. Also watch for Troopers and tractor trailer trucks! Both will ruin your day. The trucks will get stuck on the hair pin turns and cause ciaos. They follow their GPS. It says the road goes through and it does but not in a tractor trailer.
Have fun and Be safe!

Twice I've doubled that in a single day in my C7.

I want to venture out on a limb and state that you probably don't know your car very well. My opinion

That's how I just bought my 2015 with super low mileage. First owner spent all that money to drive it 1200/year. To each his own I guess.
