Yeah there are some dirt roads around there. the traffic light Between 50 up to tahoe, and wallmart, if you go (east) away from best buy. you end up on some nice dirt roads, those are a lil suspension jarring (no major ruts or rocks) but there is a fair amount of small rock / gravel in those dirt roads.. (i'm not tooo fearful of paint damage, already have 1 rim pitted out and some scratches on my running boards) would prefer all sand / no rocks. but hey
too bad mapquest or what not does not label dirt / un paved roads. i know of 1 longer dirt road that wold be cool to rally on, but its Rough, and lots of pebbels on it . (out near the alpine county airport) -that's a fun place to take your car up to 100, 120, etc. when i get some cones and i can mark off where is 150 meters for breaking i'm gonna try to take my car up tot he govoner there.

(if there is one anyone know the top speed for an 05 ? )
