SRT-8AZ, the AZ roads are great for road trips. The AZ rubberized asphault is very forgiving. I drive up to Showlow all the time. No real beating. You should join us Nov 8th. Hopefully we will have about 20 X-fires. We will do the Sedona, Cottonwood, Jerome area. This hook-up last year was fantastic. We will get people from Canada and East Coast joining us. Check out other site for more details. One member even made a movie. I believe itis still on youtube.
