OK, it's confession time. When I lived in CA in the '80's and up through the mid '90's, I drove on every narrow, winding road I could find with my 914. I've lived in AZ since '97 and despite having three sports cars (914, M3, and Boxster), I have virtually never been on a narrow winding road with ANY of them. Sure, I've driven on 17 about a million times to Flag, and once, I went from Payson to Flag in the M3 (and it was fun), but I need a driving fix.

I was planning on taking my Boxster around the loop defined by 177 and 77 this weekend - I've never been on either road. Is this a good route for a day trip from Phoenix? I'm looking for a drive that's about 4 hours or so from the south part of Phoenix (I'm in Ahwatukee).

TIA...

How about doing the Route 66 Ramble with about 15 other 914's in a couple of weeks? (Scottsdale to Winslow)

I have lived here my whole life....never taken that drive. Hmmm....

Brad - Are you coming to the Route 66 run or at least the BBQ on Friday the 7th? It is good to go to Jack's place and not see your car in there!
