there's a grade just out of Nevada City, that works, and is closer. For long
runs, I80 is the place, though. especially from Donner lake, west to Donner
summit.
I believe it's about 8% for several miles........I've gotten the SDL up to
90 mph up that, trying to load it with respect to "full throttle, but not
gaining speed".........I can't find a hill that I can do that on...........
