Saw the video today, thanks Gator. Definitely not for me in the SS or Atom. It's such a pain driving slow through metal.

Cool video though. thumbup

Cheers Jonny

Yes we know the gravel will put some people off but there is simply no way to enjoy forgotten highway with out going on the gravel.

So we made the call.

Going to be a great event cant wait

About 8km of Gravel in the middle - I have taken 2 TVRs through on delivery trips south from Auckland ..... okay it slows you up - BUT the rest of the road has to be driven to be believed - awesome bit of driving road - albeit I saw a lot half sideways..... take the gravel bit slow - you will be fine. The gravel does not kick up to bad....

As for the Stratford to Whangamomona bit of road - wow ... Never saw a cop when I went through - and the locals ae very good at keeping an eye on their revision mirrors - just watch out for the weekend motorcyclists.

Alas I cannot make that weekend

I like the sound of a revision mirror! Is it rose-tinted?
