    a stretch at haverton hill hartlepool , a good 4 miles long , starts off like driving over silicon tits then straightens out for a good stretch , not a copper in sight .

    approach to the pemberton arms comming from easington to durham road , a bridge near the junction is a good place to get all 4 wheels off the ground.

    Not in the North East but the best road I've been on for driving is the A7 from Longtown to Hawick.
    Great scenery, plenty of bends, hills and straights and you can see for miles ahead meaning you can get your foot down.
    Just watch out for the motor bikes.
    It's worth driving up there, it really is.
