had trouble taking at 45 mph on the Outside lane, he took the INSIDE lane
at maybe 90mph. It was Rock solid! Didnt slide, slip, or show any sign of
loss of control. The G-forces felt were intense and wicked! :)

Nearby theres a very curvey road that goes up and over the mountains (Angeles Crest highway) which is a shortcut for me to get to certain parts of L.A., so I take it every once in a while and I always have a lot of fun doing it. All the turns have signs up that say you should go either 25 or 35 (depending on the turn), but I rarely drop below 70 the whole way. I've only had the tires start to give once when I was powering out of a turn, but once I took my foot off the gas it was fine. I remember the first time I took that highway I thought I was going pretty quick until a nissan 350z came up on me real fast and passed me, I decided to shadow his speed and learned how fast I could actually take the turns. Good times.

In N.C. there is a famous road called "The Tail of The Dragon". It makes 318 turns in 11 miles. It is a destination for bike and car clubs everywhere.
The delorean club went there a couple years ago. They wrecked at least 1 delorean.
