hoe Member 77 Member For: 8y 7m 1d Posted 25/01/23 09:39 AM Share Posted 25/01/23 09:39 AM Picking up the g6et from the stereo shop on Friday morning and heading to Kalbarri. What's the coast road like? I'm currently running 20's with 35 profile tyres, bit worried it might be a bit rough, although it survived the trip from Kal to perth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoe Member 77 Member For: 8y 7m 1d Posted 30/01/23 03:16 AM Author Share Posted 30/01/23 03:16 AM The worst section of the trip yesterday was the great Eastern highway between southern Cross and Coolgardie. Besides the permanent roadworks at gh00lie, I hit 2 huge waves in the bitumen, both almost pulled the wheel out of my hands.Brierty contractings cheap work again, I don't know how they passed inspection....The roads from kalbarri to Wubin were pretty good, Wubin to southern Cross, good but a couple of single lane bitumen sections.

It is described by forum users as a road with varied road conditions, winding sections, and breathtaking views of the shore. It is well-liked by drivers because it offers a pleasant blend of fast straightaways and tight turns, especially when travelling in a strong vehicle like the XR6 Turbo.
