Sunset Blvd... to PCH - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

67camaro99 · 10-04-2009, 10:49 AM

Took a drive up to Hollywood last night with a friend to catch some dinner, and afterwards, cruised down Sunset past the Roxy...
Kept on going down to PCH, and man, it was a rush, I had driven that a few times, mostly on my Pocket Rocket back in the day, but Blind curves all around you...
I took a spirited pace, put the windows down, turned the radio off, and just heard the engine purr and growl....

**there is traffic, as it is a residential area, so extreme caution, and reasonable speed is recommended. Its not a place to race. But its a hell-a-va nice drive. Just dont want to give off the impression that I was roaring down the street with reckless disregard.

Once we got to Santa Monica (right by Gladstones), we made our way to the pier. Decided we had to do the reverse "lap", and on the way back to Sunset on PCH, a 911 decided he wanted to test his Flat 6. I was always ahead, though I doubt he floored it, cause I didn't, and the Camaro flat out haul aSS to just slightly

above the speedlimit... (its about 80mph there right

). It was a clear shot, no traffic.
Anyhow, its a great drive at night, and during the day, you get to see how the other 10-15% live.

That's TOO Funny

We paid for the upgraded system and keep turning it off

67camaro99 · 10-04-2009, 11:05 AM

I did a muffler delete, so you can really here it growl, and since there are a number of inclines.... it was fun.
on the way back though, I had to turn up my Guns and Roses...

You gotta try some of the other roads like Mulholland Highway, Latigo Canyon Rd., Encinal Canyon Rd. Watch out for radar though.

Yeah, only cool norcal people hella say hella all the time. I hella took the sunset drive too weeks ago while I was in Hollywood, it was hella hot, but hella nice seeing all the tourists hella taking pics of my car...

Hella

67camaro99 · 10-04-2009, 03:22 PM

My Super cool friend from NorCal Hella agrees....

Revo1 · 10-04-2009, 04:49 PM

Dude, that word is hella stupid. People up here hella use it, and I get hella annoyed. You won't catch me using it tho, I grew up in Socal, where it's hella smoggy and everyone drives a Prius cuz they're hella stuck in traffic and want to use the carpool lanes, which get hella crowded too. Anyway, hella is a hella annoying word, and even though I've only been in Norcal for 5 months, I can already tell everyone out here hella gets a kick out of it. But not me. I find it hella wack, and will only use hella cool words like wack!

:party0048:

:party0048:

Sorry, had a spazz attack. You guys can flame me if you want lol
