Twisted sisters

 Some of my southern friends are always talking about the Twisted Sisters, a group of fun roads in Texas hill country about 5 hours south of Dallas. Being in Dallas was as close as I've ever been to them so after NSXPO I headed south and drove them.

Signs like this always tell you fun, twisty roads ahead, and also be CAREFUL!
The scenery was beautiful, lots of hills and grasslands.
Lots of up and down. The road surface was a bit rough in texture but fun.




I got the impression when it rains it pours and takes a bit to run off. Lots of these water depth gages and lots of warning signs for road flooding possible during rain.

Once done with the sisters I headed north for 2 long days to get back to Michigan and put all the fun cars away for the winter. Then I headed south to Florida for the winter.

Today is April 23rd of 2025 and this post is from the fall of 2024. I'm finally caught up with posting trips. 

The next big trip is Road Trip 25, the plan is to leave southwest Florida in June and start hitting national parks. Phase 1 is the eastern US, from southwest Florida up to Maine then west to Michigan. Hopefully after a short couple of week break we'll then head west to the Pacific and hit every national park we can find.

At least this is the plan and no plan actually goes to plan so we'll see....
 

NSXPO 24 - other photos

 The club hires professional photographers to document the entire event. Here are some photos from them.















 

NSXPO24 - Forth Worth

We had a Saturday car show at Grubbs Acura.



One the the sexiest, most beautiful modern cars on the left and the complete opposite on the right.

 

On the right is what happens when you wash my yellow NSX in really hot water, it shrinks, LOL. Actually on the right is a Honda Beat, right hand drive, 656cc 3 cylinder engine, 5 speed and chain drive.


Saturday afternoon was a drive to a downtown parking lot to take group photos with the Dallas skyline in the background.

just a little more NSXPO

 

Toward the end of the second day we clear the track then do parade laps with everyone and end up with some groups photos.
One way to take video of your track lap.

Lining up for parade laps.




The first non track day we did a group scenic drive to the Fort Worth stock yards.

This looks like a cartoon but it's an actual NC1 with a very cool wrap.
One of the very few panning shots I got that was even close to in focus.
