3" rock will never settle and pack, it constantly moves. The best thing to do is to get it scraped level, with a little crown, put about 3-4" of CA6 down, hope for a little rain to settle it. When the lime in the CA6 get wet and sets up, will be as hard as concrete. once this settles, you can put another 3" down and have a very solid driveway, it will need yearly maintenance tp keep it smooth. You do not want sand or gravel as a base becaue sand and gravel are round and will never settle and pack, it will move all the time. We have put in regular roads doing this, then putting oil and then using gravel. It usually will take a while to get a good base down and then get a good road.
