The 545i Takes to the Skid Pad182 viewsIt was a rainy day to begin with, but the skid pad always is made slippery by a high-powered irrigation system. Here, we would test our new knowledge of Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), by observing how the car responds with and without DSC turned on. We did lots of doughnuts with DSC off.

Here's the Front View195 viewsOK. Enough car pictures for now! I managed to drive the entire length of the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina, from the Virginia line to the Great Smokeys National Park on the Tennessee border. I had rain and fog much of the way.

My M3 in Front of the Plant228 viewsIt was a rainy, misty day. In fact, it was a rainy, misty weekend. I had hoped to do some mountain hiking in North Carolina, but it was too rainy and foggy for that. I did, however, get to test my new fog lights on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
