The good thing is there aren't as many bikers, the bad thing, there's a few trucks trailering boats. I haven't tried the other roads bu they look like fun. I keep myself on the paved roads since the STi suspension is quite stuff, and even on those bumpy paved roads my suspension gets all messed up.
jvick125, do you thikn your dad can carve out a dirt path through your farm and charge people like 25 dollars a pop for a few runs

About the dirt track thing, I've always wanted to do that, and would consider it if my dad wasn't so worried about a law suit.

Oh man, maybe he can get it sanctioned somehow by SCCA and you can hella charge for track rentals!!! probably won't happen since these things get really complicated, but worth a shot =\.
Berryessa is great, and the lake IS far but it's very nice up there. I drive my subaru up there all the time but i've never pushed it even 70 percent because gas and don't wanna endanger my gf's life or anyone elses. i'd do it when there's no cars at all.
