My favorite road in Georgia. Hope to see you up there sometime! You and lots of others that do the loop have so much more power than I do, but we all gotta take those corners at about the same max speed. I've seen GT3s, C8s, C7s, sport bikes, etc and I can keep up in my sub 300hp F23 BMW because cornering above 55 mph feels like you're about to fly off the mountain.
To prevent slippage from sweat on the steering wheel. Reason many use an Alcantara/sued material as they maintain a good grip when wet. iydk, ever drive with a leather steering wheel after conditioning it?
I've done this loop several times, and my hands always start hurting after a while because I'm gripping my steering wheel so tightly. If driving gloves are similar to padded bicycling gloves, then I need to get some before I do this road again.
Fr that Corvette needs a driver mod. Should've taken those corners at 75 mph. 50 over what the signage recommends for the bends at this part of the loop instead of the 30 over in this video. The driver simply needs to stop being afraid of falling off the side of the mountain. Or crashing into a tree, the mountain side, or oncoming traffic.
