  • By the way that car has a WRX engine. Search for WRX powered 914 in Sport Compact Car magazine. That's it.

  • i slide some curves if i go 60/50 most of the way.. but i don't think i've ever made it that fast.. you were lucky to not hit traffic for so much of the way.

  • I sat at the bottom of the mountain and waited until nobody passed me for nearly 2-3 minutes going up the mountain then I took off. I also did Sherwood mountain that day too but it's much longer and the vid is too long to post. That road is CRAZY.

  • 5 five minute mountain is a pretty decent speed to make it up in.. damn... you had to be hitting at least 70-80 a good bit of the time... thats pretty intense. (i went to school up there for 7 years and live in winchester)

  • could've been faster, but I wasn't pushing it.  School busses were running and I was careful.

  • man i would not want to do the cowan challenge with this guy

  • That was a mild run by the way. Could've gone much faster.

  • Sherwood road FTW - did that in my 335i homecoming weekend 2010.

  • When I was in school at Sewanee, I had an M3, and I used to do that all the time. If you want to get really scared, drop down Sherwood going toward Stevenson, AL.

  • i just got back from comin down the mountain.. lol.. bet it's a whole lot more fun ina porsche though huh?

  • That is a sweet drive. I LOVE going hard into those curves, and going up is nice because of the 2 lanes. I have a BMW M3 and she LOVES to make that drive. Yes...wait at the bottom til no one goes up for 3 or 4 minutes. The Sherwood drive is also cool! That whole mountain on the Tracy City side has got some sweet road on it to!

  • @laurens1316 Oh yeah man...When there are few cars on the road...and can stretch out across the two lanes on the way up...you can make it up in four(I had to get an application in from cowan to the university in ten minutes...most frantic moment of my life LOL)

    Just watch out for the semis...never understood why semis run through there :P

  • goos job man,nice car love it

  • lol hell yeah give it some man

  • my cousins grandpa is in this he is that white truck

  • I agree. We have land and a cabin out there so i feel ya on that.
