I live in a very rural "boonies" part of south - central of Indiana, the county roads around here are always being worked on. They do a thing called chip & seal on them to keep them up, they put down some kind of rubberized tar and then go over the top of it with gravel chips, then just let the traffic mash it in. You never know when you are going to run in to a road they have picked to work on, I road my Harley to work one day and when I went back home they had done this process to the county road that I live on while I was at work. It was freshly done, I road slow but I had that crap all over my bike and it took me hours to clean it up I even got some scratches doing it. The front of my coupe probably has at least a dozen or more chips in it, these little pieces of gravel I'm talking about stay around on the road for weeks after they do that. I'll drive the SRT6, but I will probably not use it as an every day car.
