Hi everyone,

I'm travelling down to Split for a week and have decided to take the NSX over the alps. Should be an epic trip, and take in some awesome roads.

Broadly I've got three days to get down there, and three and a bit on the way back. On the way there I'm thinking:
Day 1: Drive to Alps
Day 2: Take in many great passes
Day 3: Cruise out and to Split

(We've got a week to chill when we're there..)

On the way back:
Day 1: Cruise to San'Agata
Day 2: Good passes and get to Monaco for the start of day 3 :-)
Day 3: Some of the great passes in the southern Alps
Day 4: Get back to Blighty

I've been lucky enough to do Route Napoleon/Mont Ventoux and Millau last year. Any thoughts on route, where to stay or whether I'm biting off more than I can chew would be appreciated. There are two of us, both happy with long days and sharing the driving.

Draft route below!

Rich

She's a rather lovely '91 manual, just the spec I wanted. 160k young and going strong :-)

A few pics from when I picked her up a few years ago can be found here:

I see your route goes through Grenoble
In which case Id strongly recommend a detour into the Vercors
