Wonder how good or bad my 5-speed manual Subaru will actually perform on the 7.6 miles long Mt Wash Auto Rd DOWNHILL drive which descends 4,618-feet with an average downhill gradient of 11.6% with regard to brakes and manual tranny, NEVER letting the revs go over 3200-rpm.
The uphill is probably much easier on the car than the downhill?
