Re: The EVO Triangle
If you do it its worth doing a recce lap first as plod are well onto fast runs around it now ;-)
If your really really lucky you get a few laps to yourself in nice weather :-) The best day I ever had there was during the week the kids went back to school after the summer hols, great weather and it was that quite I parked the car in the middle of the road for pics on the Horseshoe pass (which is nearby).
I did some runs in mid wales this summer and there are better / more scenic roads than the evo but the evo feels like you have done/learnt a circuit.

Re: The EVO Triangle
Agree with Jonntt lots of better scenic roads but if you can get the Evo free of plod and traffic it is a terrific driving road. We did it earlier this year and me, Karl (in his Porsche) and Peteslag really pushed it and it does feel like you are on a race circuit. If you are going for a blast then i would recommend sending someone up ahead to make sure its clear and have radios.

Re: The EVO Triangle
I've done it twice this year and agree with the above comments, also worth taking the road to Ruthin which we found to be a most excellent route to get from the Horseshoe pass to the EVO route..

Re: The EVO Triangle
The EVO is the most fun you can have off the track. An utterly brilliant road, what a shame we can't cone it off and turn it into our own little Nurburgring.
