There are some nice ones I've been on AK/MO border near a country place that the name escapes me.

That "driveway" had a yellow line down its middle.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it !

I'm sure you are aware of the Razorback Run in October when all the Texans leave the flatland to join us for some Arkansas twisties.  Also, Steve (Solnut) has tried to get some local interest.  Problem seems to be we are spread out all over the state.

But you're right...there ought to be enough of us to get something going.  After all, as those Californians say, we're all related to each other here in "Hickville".

no i wasn't aware of the Rb run, it's news to me.

and yea we are spread out but there's only a couple of good roads in little rock and they are less than a mile long each, so I'm used to having to drive to the corner of the state for any kind of fun.

We have Possum Grape! :thumbs:

http://www.mapquest.com/maps?city=Possum+Grape&state=AR

Right next to Possum Grape on Hwy 167 is an area that is straight level concrete 4 lane with large tall divider.  Opposing traffic cannot cross the median for ~7-8 Miles!  If someone with a radio pre-ran it?  ;) :idk:

When I had the S2K, Sherry & I were returning form Muskegon, MI after crossing the lake on-board the catamaran from Milwaukee, we were running 120+ in this section and she was beating on the KBD of her laptop.  I said 'Pretty smooth, huh? and she just said it's OK', and didn't even take her eyes off of the display. <GRIN>
