Most of the car commercials are filmed on the "Forest Gump" curve, the last
one up to the top.

I understand a lot of car comercials have been shot on GFM. The road at GFM
is far from the scariest road around. But John, the section Ken shows if
far from the scariest on GFM although it may be the tightest.

You guys ain't seen nuthin' till you've seen the curves on the Island of
St. Helena (that's the one in the South Atlantic Ocean, BTW)! The GFM
example is a pussy-cat compared with some of those. If you can look up a
map of the island on the WWW, look at the double bend on Two Gun Saddle,
SSE fro Jamestown: it's a 20 degree slope and a 12 foot wide carriageway
at max, with rock walls each side and a 200 foot drop on one side (if you
miss the turn going downhill, it's about 400 feet down after you demolish
a house with a magnificent view!). I'll see if I can find a picture to
illustrate in the next few days.
Yes and one guy thought Auto Minis could tackle it - hah!

Taken during the Nature Photography Weekend sometime between rain drops.
The best example of its kind I've ever personally seen outside of a race
track.
Comments of all kinds solicited.
Thanks in advance.
