Jay Leno on Hollywood’s secret race track
 
Shamelessly stolen from every other forum on the internet today. Jay Leno having a bit of fun in an SLS through the Hollywood Hills. Car sounds awesome.:drool:

Looks like you’ve got it sussed. I also like the look of Franklin Canyon Drive running parallel to Coldwater Canyon. Now all we need to do is jump on a plane over there, get a hire car, and show those Yanks what’s what with a good lap time.:thumbsup:

Used to do the same thing over here too, going through maps looking for the squiggliest roads, then go driving them. Kirkstone Pass in Cumbria is a fav. Got some pics on my flickr page cos I’m sad like that.:blush:

my missus used to live on kirkstone pass and worked in the pub at the top, i've driven that road hundreds of time's in my old 5 turbo, but that was years ago.

Renault 5 Turbo? They’re the business, I’ve always wanted one of those. Think a clean one is quite rare these days.

Rich, it’s a great website isn’t it, if you haven’t seen it, check out this vid of his Bentley Speed 6, the sound it make is incredible.
