Track Day? Nah, we'd rather do a Hyphen Rally: mountain roads with friends — Carmudgeon Show Ep 50

In this celebratory 50th episode of The Carmudgeon Show, Jason Cammisa and Derek Tam-Scott regale us with tales of their 624-mile weekend old-car road rally. Derek brought his 964-chassis Porsche 911, Jason brought "Beatrice," his beater E30-chassis BMW 325i. Two friends bought Miatas: an NC3 and an ND2. More on the Mazdas in a future episode, we promise. Derek picked a route of the twistiest back roads Northern California can offer and the boys grabbed a couple hotels. Several things occurred to them: 1. California's passing laws suck because they put the onus of pulling over on the slower, weaker driver. 2. We've found our people: they use turn signals. 3. Track days are great, but we prefer back roads. 4. Tight and twisty back roads are more fun than track - it trades repetition for adventure. 5. This is the cheapest way of enjoying a weekend. 6. Poor Beatrice. 7. Focus on the driver mod! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
