Too extreme a test drive?
So now that I've become accustomed to the new Subaru on "normal" driving conditions, I think it's time to ramp things up a little. I'm looking forward to taking it on a more "advanced" drive to test its capabilities as a worthy climbing vehicle. Here's what I have planned for it this weekend:
- +300 mile highway long range driving
- Cornering abilities on dusty roads
- Cornering abilities on dusty narrow roads>
- Cornering abilities on dusty, narrow, rock strewn roads
- Torque going uphill on dusty, wide, rock strewn roads
- Possible wind block for campers
- Clearance tests (doubtful we'll go to the Druids though...)
- Potential drives through light rains on said roads
- Potential drive through a "snow shower" on said roads
In other news, I'm not so sure that my shoulder will be ready for the weekend. Nearly all the pain is gone except for when I make two specific motions - one where moving my arm out away from my side, and trying to rotate my shoulder 360. I'm going to do some light rehab exercises the next two nights but... Oh well - I'm still remaining hopeful, but I'm going to look for my old SLR camera and find some film for it just in case.
In any case, it should be a good weekend of fun!
