The October Car and Driver article entitled
Chrysler 300 SRT8 takes on Mulholland Drive came out recently.
Here is a link to part of the article.

I enjoyed driving the Chrysler and giving the writer his information on Mulholland history and specifics.
Here is the video on Mulholland that Car and Driver shot the next day.

Two corrections, I stated that they (the city) would not re-pave because they're worried the Racers will come back.
I was wrong, yesterday many re-paving machines showed up on Mulholland near Beverly Glen and warning signs showed up displaying a message that major delays would be occuring on Mulholland due to construction. Gotta find out the details.
Also, Dick Guldstrand was quoted saying, "I saw a guy kill himself in a '63 Corvette. We called him Mulholland Charley...he went flying right off the road and into the canyon, and that was it"
That was an incorrect statement. I have been talking to a member of Charley's own private group from long ago and he has the correct story. Charley did not die on Mulholland Drive!
Here is one of the comments on this article:
Fantastic article. Being born in 92 on the east coast and always taking vacations east of that, I’ve never had the pleasure of experiencing any famous CA roads. Writers always allude to some amazing strip of pavement, but i guess because of their age (the roads), they feel no need to describe it, assuming everyone already knows what they're talking about. Sometimes it’s like walking in and only catching the punch-line of a joke, you smile and play along, knowing you missed something, while wondering how funny the joke actually was. But I digress... It was nice to see someone truly describe the road and tell the tales the tarmac holds for new kids on the block.
