Dave's Drives: Aston Martin on Norris Canyon Road

A Sunday drive on Crow Canyon and Norris Canyon Roads in December. My new external microphone for the GoPro lets you hear the great sound the Brits engineered for this terrific 2-seater.

I use to live off Bollinger in San Ramon & would go faster down this road in my escort station wagon. Granted you looked much cooler I suppose. Brave to speed on the 50 mph section of Crow Canyon tho lol

+420Tarzan Yes, no doubt one can drive much faster down this road, but that wasn't the point of the video, nor is it something I would advocate on this public road. The drive and the video were to showcase the SOUND of the Aston and the nice sound pick-up of my new external microphone (my GoPro videos previously always had too much wind noise!). Now, if you want to head to the track, I can show you the other performance aspects of the AM V8.

+David Anderson Ah, ok. For some reason I was under the impression it was for wow factor, aside from the exhaust sounds. It is a very fun road though, especially the tight S turn going towards San Ramon. Try Los Trompis road at the end of Bollinger West longer straights to hear exhaust.
