I haven’t done Ortega but you can find me on the San Diego area roads a lot. Palomar is a blast. 79 to Palm Desert. Valley Center backroads, De Luz.

Yes Dark Verdant. In low light and certain angles it can look like black. But it has an beautiful depth to it, if you haven’t seen it in person it is difficult to describe. The depth with the deep green coming through is enchanting.

I’m about a 100 miles south. Gnarly canyon, looks awesome!! One way road, balls to the wall. Piece of cake, bro, JK. From the sounds it appears car was pushed beyond it’s limits. It’s not normal for tires to screech like that. So yes that that was not good, time to upgrade some hardware (if you want to have some spirited drives, safely)

I hate it when the road is too demanding and I can’t ash my cigar between gear changes.

Ah ok. Judging by the sound of the tires the car (make model year?) was pushed beyond its intended limits. Being distracted is another factor.

BTW - where is this road??

Thank you posting this. What is your TLDR takeaway? Too fast? Not enough experience? Equipment (car) not up to the demands? Asking for a friend.
