The Camaro Club (UK)

Right just back today so it's pics time !!!!!

This was my ride for the week.. And photo from the the sunday morning after collecting the cars the previous afternoon and a rainy drive down through the Redwoods, hences the muddy arches. Roof still up, but for the last time !



First stop point at Laguna Seca, just before our ride round the track



Only 15,00 miles and probably barely a few moths old.. Nice drive, basic auto hire spec, but still with a few design issues..IMO



Laguna Seca (or rather.. Mazda Raceway now)



Passenger ride round the track



Quick stop after a brisk hillside blat



The Pacific from Highway 1 coast road



After a blast round Mullholland Drive dropping towards Beverley Hills



Must do picture with 'the sign'



One of the at least daily fuel stops. It cost about $70 to fully brim the tank (about £45)



Corvettes all around



Calico - old western silver mining town



Heading into the desert, and Nevada



Dead straight road for miles, with weird dips that gave a nice roller coaster sensation



Hoover Dam



We parked up on the Arizona side for some good pics of Lake Mead that feeds the dam.



Driving into Las vegas



Viva Las Vegas



My humble B&B for a couple of nights



Heading into Death Valley we stopped at the amazing viewpoint.



Artists Drive. 9 miles of one-way curvyness



heading into a dust storm across the bottom of Death Valley. It was like bad fog with less than 20 feet visibilty but through it in a few seconds.



Approaching the Sierra Nevada mountains, some snowcapped.



Crazy cloud coming of the mountains



Building up my insect collection



Lame Mono on the way into Yosemite National Park. Natural Salt Lake with lime Stalagmites



Another scenic mountainside stop...



Brilliant Ebbets pass through Yosemite



View after driving up the Conzelman road opposite San Francisco



Driving over Golden Gate Bridge, and the end of the tour.



A brilliant week, and topped by a very fun 3 days in San Francisco..

Looks like a great trip
Some great pics, thanks for posting.
Would like to do an extended road trip myself some time...money being the limiting factor.
I did drive from San Diego to 'frisco back in the day...the Pacific coast road around Big Sur is a really good scenic route and quite challenging especially at night when you are not familiar with the curves

Found one of the first videos, this is Artist Drive in Death Valley, easy to miss 9 mile long one-way road through the edge of the valley... I was behind the car filming, and this doesn't give the real 'feel' of it. You can tell we weren't hanging around by the fact it's less than a 7.44 minute video on a twisty road with about 8 miles filmed.

Fun starts at around 1.15
