    Awesome idea for a video. However I’m surprised you didn’t include Grays Road which goes from Camborne to pauatahanui. Used to love blasting my DC5 around there. Couple of long straights and heaps of turns

    • @KiwiCarLife
      @KiwiCarLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah I considered that... Trouble is the speed limit is like 40 or 50 now I think. And it's quite busy. I went and drove it and thought it was a bit average. Paekak hill road is much better

    Yesterday I took my Sti for a shakedown after its latest tune on Wainui coast road. Great road and not much traffic even at mid day. Never done Blue mountains or moonshine loops tho. They are next I think haha.
    Middleton road is a very often one for me, love that road between Churton and Tawa.

    I live on moonshine road and sure do like hooning on my way home from work at night but especially in the day time do be careful because it is rather skinny and not much room for error.

  • @spadgm

    Driven on pretty much all of them back in the day and my fav is the Remutaka hill.
    Moonshine loop is pretty good too, had a pretty quick drive through there one evening, pulled up at a girls house to take her to a party and my brakes were glowing like the sun lol.
