My car club is planning a road trip to ride this monster in the fall. No dates have been set, but though this would be a great time to plan our own meet up in NC. I know a couple of you guys are on the way up there... Alex, brick, milestone. I was wondering if any of you guys would like to meet up with my group to have some fun

and if you go on the tail you too can have pics this good of your ride.. there are several photographers in several corners taking professinal pics..

I gotta make sure I upgrade my insurance so when I get into the twisties and go off the road into a ditch I'll be covered. Lol. I wonder if there are any drag strips near the dragon's tail.

milestone, you can forget that ditch part.. if you go off the tail it is usually bank on one side and nothing but tree tops on the other..

I guess depending on how many of us are going, we may has well plan this separately for my car club anyways. I think the better time to plan this is just before the fall semester for us college students. Most of us will be just out of the summer semester too.

Also what other things could we all do?
Find a near by 1/4 mile track
Or maybe some sort of other event

I say a track day for sure then maybe any other event like car show etc. I would hate for it to be like the FL meet...just a lame car show and planning to say the least sucked lol

_________________

Lol- I felt the same way. This meet up has gotta be well planned out before hand
