Don't drive on the I-15

[lightsource]

That shit's the bumpiest interstate I've ever been on... (haven't driven very much lol).

Driving home from corona my car just feels so squishy. Hard to explain... Long story short, the I-15 is a rear toe link killer.

I drive between Downtown and Torrance everyday on the 110 - that freeway blows too. Cement freeways just get really bumpy. If I weren't concerned about heat issues (not car, environment), I would fully endorse asphalt freeways.

But in light of, I only endorse them 49%.

[spikNspan]

ouch that sucks. freeways here in the bay area are pretty jacked, but I've never snapped anything in half. I'm running 10k front and 8k rear spring rates too. *knock on wood*

[SochBAT]

you should buy mine. i JUST took it off! haha.

[lightsource]

Oh yea, 110 eats balls. haha yea almost want that. They had asphalt like 20% of the way back and was like wtf? This is nice. And then right back to shitty cement.

Yea, I'm gonna get some new rear arms, everything... Maybe battle version conversion on everything, RUCA, Toe Links, Arms. Swift springs too.

I was surprised by the clean ass break.

[lightsource]

you should buy mine. i JUST took it off! haha.

lol, nah dude I got that shit fixed 10 minutes after I got off the freeway. $50 bucks installed.

Ib a non socal mod wants lock this saying how you should post in regional even tho a large amount of members are socal residents anyway.

[nismoskyz]

that sucks man.. where exactly on the 15 did that happen?

there's this one spot on the 15 north.. terrible HUGE pothole/crack/dip right in the middle of the freeway idk why they dont fix it.. it's up by rancho cucamonga area i believe its in the 3rd lane just after you pass the exit for baseline .. be careful if any of you are around there, just stay out of the 3rd lane

ah one time i screwed up, just recently, i thought i had already passed that bump so i got in the third lane and moments later my car hit the bump hard.. felt like it bent my wheel or something ..

it was about... half a mile before the exit right by the Shell station, between corona and los angeles, don't remember where I was.

[wgJoY]

[EDacIouSX]

I'd love some SPL Links & arms but I can't justify paying $1,000 for some lower arms w. my 'budget' if you want to call it that ;).

[I10cruiser]

the i10 sucks balls too!

[joshchewuhh]

same shit happend to me

hahaha drove like that for about a an hour, car felt weird looked at the rear and saw my toe rod snapped

damned roads

[derek_s13]

no one in this thread has ever driven on the bronx expressway.


or the tapanzee bridge.


or the jersey turnpike.


new england cars get air through bronx expressway. terrible. so terrible. socal has little to complain about.

[murda-c]

my car has gotten air on the jersey turnpike. lol

[UfoZ8myCow]

The 15 sucks but not that bad... Its not the freeway's fault your car is old as fuck and breaks when it goes over a few bumps.

Look on the bright side... Good opportunity for an upgrade!

[sileighty83]

daaaammmnnn! =( If the city would maintain freeways better this shit wouldnt happen.

[MudRacer]

haha I bet:)

what part of the 15 are you talking bout. I drive by corona on the 15 all the time. Ive never experienced any bumps. That shits cleeeen.

Btw. Does the 15 even go to LA. Is ontario considered LA?

[Grendel]

You guys are crazy, I miss cali roads/freeways. Here in Alabama the roads are total crap. Potholes, cracks, bumps etc.

They are repaving the road I take to base, there are these sections where they started to repave but stopped so there are like 5-6 inch drops/jumps in the road. Gotta slow way down or the car wants to catch air :p

[sliEighty]

haha you guys have it good i think here in PA we have some of the worst roads in the nation, im pretty sure its proven too....

[Flicktitty]

damn that sucks, the roads up here in the midwest blows dick too.

Have you driven on our roads?

The state purposely uses low quality freeway materials so that they can repave the roads every 5 years (creates jobs and what not)

But Cali has been rated amongst the top 5 states for having the worst road conditions.

Our state is larger than most of you other guys that are complaining so there's a lot more shitty road on average. Especially in they areas where the population is more dense due to frequent/heavy usage.

[FlyingAngle]

Pretty much the only good thing about FL is how nice and flat all the roads are, they are also all setup in a grid so every single turn is 90 degrees which does suck. I miss the amazing backroads on long island, but I don't miss drives into queens/ the city at all.

[fliprayzin240sx]

I hate I-5 thru the grapevine. I bottomed out my exhaust so hard thru dips out there that i sheared the bolts/studs on the turbo to elbow. I had to drive the car all the way to norcal on an open turbo. Shit was deafening...

[silviaguy240]

yea fuck the jersey turnpike or 95 in the trisate area (pa/de/nj) shits been under construction for the pas like 3 years straight.

[Om1kron]

hahaha this thread rules... if anything the 134W to the 101N sucks donkey ass expecially around Van Nuys, when it rained there litereally was a pool of water in an area that has a nice dip in it so all four of your wheels would submerge 3-4 inches away from your center cap... which spells HYDROLOCK! for cold air intakes and intercooled cars. =(

[murda-c]

fuck PA.

Everytime i go visit i'm pissed off until i actually get to the poconos, then it's fun.

But all those concrete highways howling and thudding for hours at a time pisses me off.

[DMaxUSA]

I'm pretty confident in saying that almost all the freeways in the L.A. and Orange County area suck!! The only section that is better than others is the 405 south in the Irvine area, from Jamboree to about Alton. Its not perfect because of the overly-active Irvine police....

/\/\/\/\/\ +1 the whole state is flatter than pedobears girlfriend, and its pretty much all hardpacked sand base, so the roads stay silky and schmoooze (stop looking at me schwannnn!!!!) i'm enjoying the fact that it rains here daily, and that there are traffic circles. the combination is enjoyable under certain circumstances :naughty:

I hate I-5 thru the grapevine. I bottomed out my exhaust so hard thru dips out there that i sheared the bolts/studs on the turbo to elbow. I had to drive the car all the way to norcal on an open turbo. Shit was deafening...

they fixed I5 recently..but even before that, it was still a LOT better than taking 99...

5 was actually smooth for me...few bumps here and there..nothing big

[94cc0rd]

i take the 15 south from the 210 to the 91 everyday and the 15 north from the 91 to the 10 back...

it's not that bad...

i do remember a section on the 10 west right around the 57 and the first exit past the 57.. 2nd lane i think... horribly bumpy and cracked roads... my stereo turned off for a split second after hitting those bumps...

[JRas]

Nice, a reason to upgrade :D

[s13boy89]

on the 5 passing knots there is a dip there that my friend hit and bent his wheels

[ZenkiGTS]

damn sucks to be you right about now

[240cracker]

the 91 isnt as bad as some but comming back home from compton area heading toward cerritos they have a huge bump in the far left lane. WATCH OUT!

i was doing over 100 rushing home one late late fri night and caught air no fucking lie. i pulled over and everything looked good haha

Wow i was on the I-44 a year ago, and compared to the roads up here in Canada. They were SMOOOTH as glass. You guys have no idea what bad roads are till you drive up here. Stupid climate.

[Kwonza Says]

same stuff happened to me like 5 days ago hhaha went to the junkyard done deal hahah yea felt like my wheel was going to fall off go junk but it for cheap call it a day : )

[ZX88]

i love it when they start repaving highways stop halfway and leave a nice 3inch transition. i see that bump sign and pray to god something doesnt get fucked up. lol

[WERDdabuilder]

i drive that stretch of the 15 everyday. aint that bad.

[lightsource]

lmfao yea i know that one, I live in compton so I dodge that one very time lol.

[nismo tuned s14]

TN representing! The only road I hate driving on is I-65 on a little section north of Nashville, but as long as you stay in the slow lane it's not that bad.

[Flipzide]

Eh.... I-15 is a LOT better than the I-5 down here in San Diego, IMO.

[Dutchmalmiss]

If any of you have have been there, STAY AWAY FROM THE INTERSECTION OF LA BREA AND SUNSET in hollywood. FUCKIN SUCKS.

[MudRacer]

Ive done 145mph on the I15S coming from ontario to corona in my dumb days. That freeway is smooth.

Ive done 150+ on the 91E also during those dumb times.

[xplicit240]

lol the best was cutting across manhattan to get back into the tunnel to NJ. my battery came loose. car died in the intersection. that was fun. lolz.

then i really noticed i had to pull my fenders. and yes some air time was involved
