Around SE Qld going up Mt Mee from south to North is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty←Well maybe that tells you something about the handling of the BA/BF huh???Fact is they are heavy ... they are long wheelbase rear drive front engined sedans ... they have relatively soft springs and the factory shocks aren't meant to last more than the drive out of the showroom.To really get the best out of one of these cars you would need to throw about two to three biggies at the suspension. All the engine mods in the world won't improve anything except the SS400m times.If I had one my fav road would be the Nullabor .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me thinks Dodge Rams will be the go in here soon.Yes the M1 can be fun when doing 200km/h racing a ute, but that was along time ago in the dark and stupid days.Scotty←the roads around coffs hinterland were far from straight, moutainous, twisty, lots of hill climbs.Hinterland Sunny coast a variety of straight and twisty ... shazzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that they handle reasonably well, and you dont have to through thousands at them. The upgraded sway bars are the best band for buck mod there is.Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary, but fun, great to get the adrenaline pumping.If it must be a straight road (like all you other wimps) then...Gotta say I don't mind pulling the boat along the F6 from Sydney - Newcastle. Great feeling having it surging along pulling a heavy load with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
