That looks like so much fun, I would love to go there. Too bad it's only 7.3 miles long though. But still, I'm sure it's a very fun road.

but it climbs to 4000ft.... you don't want to go higher than 1500ft as
you begin to loose power.
that's specifically why i chose the santa monica mountains (malibu) when
i was canyon carving in LA.

Just got my MINI here from the states, I am about 100 minutes away from Jebel Hafeet, and I fully intend to drive it very, very soon!

Please post pics and report of the road driving up Jebel Hafeet. Some of the roads in those countries are pretty impressive and in much, much better condition than most roads here in the US.
