Anyone on here take their fits out on some of the winding canyon roads in the north valley yet? I recommend the road to Bartlett lake. 12miles lots of curves and up and down hills. Ive run into several groups of cars that go out there late at night and drift the road. Ive had to cut a guy out of a 350Z that launched his car 200ft down a ravine. (I work for the Fire Department in Carefree). good road in good condition. recommend driving it slow before you blast on it.
Directions: take scottsdale rd. north from the 101 until it ends bout 18 miles north. road ends into cavecreek rd. make a right at the shell station take cave creek road out to bartlett damn road approx. 8 miles hang a right. cant miss the sign for the lake. start the run and enjoy.

if anyone else has some good recommendations let me know always enjoy a good run.

 

I might have to try that... sounds like fun...

 

Except for the running off the road into a ravine part.

thats why i specified drive it slower the first time. the ravines would eat most cars. a fit well that would just disappear!

 

Haha, yep... I was just messing around. Mostly, I just wanted to post in the AZ forum since this place is like a ghost town. I'm convinced that it's because you have to scroll five miles down the page to get to the regionals. Or maybe the Fit scene here just isn't all that... I'd love to get together to meet some other owners.

im in on a get together... it truly is a ghost town for modded fits here. i see a couple fits here and there but mostly older driving for pure econ.
saw a fit white fit 2 days ago 7th ave and 101 turned into autoshop just south of deer valley airport. ne one one here? has dropped and tinted. looked clean bout 2 in drop i guess

 

Haha... yeah, I've gone to more Subaru meets w/ my Fit than Honda ones (none). I know the Fits are out there, because I see people from Phoenix posting. The Fit subforums on other Honda boards (like SHO) are completely dead, too. Something's wrong if I need to drive back home to SoCal for a Fit meet.

On the flipside, it's kinda cool that Fits aren't too common around these parts. I'll see them in bursts (like 2 a day for a week straight), and then nothing for a month. My coworker here has an SSM Sport, but he bought it for the better mileage, too (he commutes in to the Biltmore area from Queen Creek... ouch!).

im down for a meet. i dont have much mods but will like to get ideas.

 

i'm game for a meet.

 

im game for a meet lets all try to set something up. dosent matter where. someone set something up and lets get together.

 

I know its a lil bit hot in the PHX cus it's pretty hot up here in prescott but if ya wanna meet up north here in my world lemme know I'll help out!

 

personally i dont care. i just want to see some fits.

 

either way, either ways fine with me!( any other superbad fans out there?)

 

There's a meet that's mostly Subarus and Evos that gathers at the Marina by ASU every Saturday around 6-7 (they then head to Pavs). I used to go to it with my WRX, and some of the regulars there drive Hondas, so I'm pretty sure it's all good if some Fits show up. Same with the Thursday night meet in Glendale by the stadium/AMC (same time, and then they head to the bars).

-Mike

 

sweet ya im down. i have never been to the pavs but i always here bout it???

 

there is usally a 100 plus cars of all types out there. oldies, muscle, imports, bikes, exotics, vw's, you name it. its on saturday evenings. just off indian bend and the 101 in scottsdale.

 

do you usually head out there???

 

I'd be curious to know if there are any Fits that show up. If not, we could be the first. I really don't want to go until I get my wheel/suspension setup. Looks stock on the outside besides the visors, tint, and exhaust.

-Mike

 

Mine too. i just ordered my wheels though and should be here in a week. suspension wont be for a while.

 

highway 88... canyon ftw, Ive taking mine on jerome and that was nuts.
