Hard to be sure but it looks like there are some good sight lines through some of those bends

You can put the coordinates into Google Earth and it takes you straight there, if money is tight though this trip should be put on the back burner... It's a LONG way away, so lots of fuel will be needed...

dave i was only kidding about the money part i just wanted to know if anyone knew where it was it would be nice to go with the viper club as a group whenever but the type of person that i am i could wake up one morning and decide i am wana drive start my viper and drive to romania and that is preciesly i would do on a spur of the moment.

Here it is on Google Maps if you don't have Google Earth:

1,475 miles and nearly 28 hours of driving to get there

[GTSDave]

Zub, if you wake up one morning on a spur of the moment and decide you want to go and feel the need to pay my fuel bills and take me with you then give me a call!

It's a back burner job for me at the moment

Do they still do motor rail? Could put the cars on the train for a while to save wear and tear, then get off near venue for a bit of fun

If were driving that road down hill I think new brake pads and a change of fluid would be in order

Brakes, who's going to use brakes, that much engine braking will have us tiring of all the pops and bangs.

What about the road they did last year? That was considerably closer, (and probably safer to get to)

Or a long weekend up in Scotland? There are some fantastic roads up there too? I did a road trip round Scotland a few years back it was fantastic, pretty easy to find accomodation too... I'm willing to do some digging around and planning if anyone fancies it next year? Take in some nice roads and castles and distilleries. (The food was good up there too!)

Here's the first pic I got putting Scottish road into google images... It's pretty representative of most of the roads we drove round whilst up there, the scenery was amazing...
