Geez, Chuck. I looked through a few pages of these pics and you're the only guy with two wheels over the centerline....
That's 'cuz' Chuck had the racing line, the rest were just 'putzin' along

It's funny, I've been drive'n that road forever.... They shoot down on you exiting a tight up hill left hander. Since they 'set up shop' years ago the turn gets a bit 'busy' with flashes, looky-loos, etc.... And, sometimes as you straiten out after the turn there might be a 'friendly' sheriff kibitzing or just 'waiting' at the 'grandstands' (second picture) just a few hundred yards ahead. Well last Sat. there was no one but the camera guy, and I caught a quick look at the clear road ahead.... so I did squeeze on it a bit more than usual.......That's 'cuz' Chuck had the racing line, the rest were just 'putzin' along... and it felt good...

Today I took 302396 for a spirited drive thought the back country - but ended up at the beach.
They say snow may be coming our way, so this may be it for a while.

You can see well ahead once you are halfway through that turn. I used to do the racing line about 5 years ago but stopped after getting flack from the photogs. That was the only turn I would do it in, because you can see (and I would only do it when it was clear). The way I look at it now is that I am looking for tight, twisty roads so why straighten them by crossing the double yellow? Less chance for a ticket this way, too.
(There is also less grip on the paint).
