That looks like the place where Forrest Gump stopped running. Highway 50?

I drove the road through northern NV back in 2000. It is different for sure.

There seems to be a new trend in erotic photo postings lately.

But for GOD's SAKE man - no photos of the B.J. contest - even if you won! :p

Fun fact about living in Nevada. Sometimes driving directions from Google maps sends you down roads like this:

Doncha love it when the sage sticks out a little too far and takes paint off your truck?

If Vegas whores go to Reno to die, then what doesn't die goes to Winnemucca to feed on the flesh of the living...

When I lived in Idaho, we would go to Winnemucca for the yearly Idaho vs. Nevada autocross. Half the fun was the drive there and back.

Wow, thanks for the pics guys! I love it.

Stayed in Winnemucca lots of times on our way to Idaho. Great bkfst place on the main drag called The Griddle.

Two words: Radar. Detector.

theFONZ 05-14-2014 08:15 PM

I remember several very nice 911s at the Winnemucca autocross, I wonder if there were any pelicans? I drove either a 944, a 951, or a Boxster.

I always had a radar detector, but only needed it in Oregon. I don't believe I ever saw a Nevada cop on those roads.

Then there was cannonball Vegas. Mountain Home, ID to Vegas in under 7 hours.
