Have you ever wondering if you’re missing out on an incredible driving road somewhere in the US? We got sick of the FOMO and decided to just drive them all, in our Honda Civic Type R and S2000. It’s tough work doing a tour of the best spirited driving roads, but somebody’s gotta do it.
This roadtrip was sponsored by STEK Protective Automotive Films, whose DYNOShield film protected both cars paint from rock chips on this 8000 mile trip. Their NEX tint also protected our skin from sunburn. Huge thank you to STEK!
Special thanks to Ryan and Tony for their generosity. You guys saved the trip.
We have hoodies and shirts for sale at http://oildrip.shop/ and if you order now, you can get them by Christmas!

If you’re EVER finding yourself in Texas for any reason, Ranch Rd 337, 336, and 335 and related roads around the Kerrville, TX area are amazing 🙌
I drove tail of the dragon while on the way to georgia for my honeymoon. Did it on a monday and it wasn't busy at all. While its probably not the best driving road out there, the popularity and tourist attraction aspect makes it a must drive road at least once in my opinion.
Great video and inspiration trip as always boys. Not even mad at the merch troll.
It's a road in northern arizona… Starts at the back of prescott valley and heads up to jerome… Some of the best corners you could ever find
Protip: Don't ever go during Touge Fest. Never seen that road more crowded in my life! Awesome meeting you guys (I had the green mustang)
In my opinion in the 113xxx miles i put on my si….Tennessee..kentucky…indiana..ohio..and missouri have some amazing roads especially ones where they are twisty and clean and smooth and well speed limits become optional
Chuckanut rd outside of Bellingham wa
Awesome editing and storytelling ❤.
Maybe next year 2 sponsors and shipping the cars to Europe?
I could never drive the dragon fast, I’d be too distracted looking at all the cars way cooler than mine driving past. 😂
I’ve drivin on blueridge I’ll cross out tail next year
Cross country in a car with a stand-alone? Its registered? Ballsy.
That S2K is beautiful but choosing with brain civic wins
You boys have to hit the Kancamagus Highway in White Mountains New Hampshire
This is perfect I have been looking for driving roads, thanks for doing the work for me 👍🏽
I feel so dumb that I lived in knoxville for 4 years and never once drove over to the dragon. No idea what I was thinking.
29:33 of course…..for legal reason🤣
Highway 7. Rulo Nebraska to White Cloud Kansas
yall are great i love watching these videos plus im from wytheville va witch isnt to far from yall i love you guys keep up the great work.
Tunnel of Trees is a beautiful road near Harbor Springs in Michigan
Now try Deals Gap on a bicycle.
Love the road trip series. Doing it in reliable Hondas with the beautiful sound of VTEC has to be so much fun. Makes me miss my GSR. 😢
Greased unit is my new band name!
I cant wait for another episode, please be quick :DDD
Pikes Peak is an amazing drive everyone should take. If you're lucky, you'll get to see test cars and camo'd upcoming cars being tested at altitude. Saw 3 from Mercedes back in June when I drove it.
I was your typical rice burner/car enthusiast in highschool and into my late teens. Like most, i knew a bout the Dragon most of my life. I had ALWAYS dreamed of driving it in a fun car at some point. Unfortunately those days are long behing me now in my mid 30's with kids. Funny story though, i finally ended up accidentally driving this road on a family road trip on a trip from TN to NC. The bad part was, we were in our 2021 Nissan Titan Pro-4x. It was NOT ENJOYABLE lol.
Finally. I LOVE these with the baller cars you guys build, not a fan of the stanced one you guys did but absolutely incredible. I will watch every last second of this and probably watch it again 😂
You guys make the most EPIC road trips !!
If Ryan ever sees this i just want to say thank you for helping strangers out and letting them use your lift with no expectation of anything in return. You sir are a good dude for that
Drive through Canada! 🇨🇦
I'm about 2 hours from the dragon and visit frequently. I've had some of the best memories made at the dragon both in driving my car and time with friends and my fiancé! Watching this though I do want to visit more awesome roads!

This is what I love about this channel. Not that I don't appreciate the other content but love this the most.
The way people drive in Georgia, no way the best roads are here 😂😂😂😂😂
Pikes is cool, but Independence Pass is the best driving road in Colorado by a substantial margin.
The Mt. Lemmon road in Tucson is a nice drive as well with a overlook that let's you see over Tucson and Phoenix
