Zoomed right in but I can't see it, is it a model one
Brings back memories! I saw them close to 50 years ago at a small club here in the states - the Shaboo Inn. Love their stuff!
Such a good stretch of road
And such a good vehicle for it. Granted I wasn’t towing anything, but I had a couple people and a fair amount of stuff. The turbos on that thing have it performing at altitude like a TA152. It’ll go faster than I wanna go on that road. And on the way down with that eight speed transmission, full-time four-wheel-drive and my 285 is on there, you barely have to use the brakes. Same thing coming down I 70 in the Denver. This thing has so much Mechanical and aerodynamic drag. It’s a pleasure to drive it downhill.
Was heading back again last night. I thought I’d wait long enough for the afternoon storms to dissipate. Ended up doing this 11,000 foot pass in a torrential thunderstorm that turned into hail. Luckily I don’t think my truck took any damage, but there was 2 inches of ice near the top of the pass. My mother-in-law was with me and said it was the worst weather she had ever been in in her life in Colorado. The hail wasn’t big, but it was very intense, we couldn’t even talk to each other at one point. It was so loud. Just kept the grenadier in standard mode, thought about putting it in four high, but didn’t even need to.
