You can take the rally road even if lowered but go slow when you see some ruts as your bumper will tend to scrape. Some corners in particular but only when going at speed. There is a huge bump towards the end of the straights that can be a lip killer but like I said, be mindful and just light cruising will net you a good gravel road driving experience.

here's a tutorial, lol!

It's actually a bit better on the the rally road. It won't be so dry, dusty and very loose. Damp gavel surface gives you better traction. Windows down? feel the G's not the wind. Wait till it snows!
