Still not sure if I will make it, but I'm working on it.

SHO-TYM

alright, I sent a message out to all that have said they are going to either try and make it, or have said that they are going to make it.  Check your inboxes.  If you didn't get a message from me, and you would like to join our trip on Sept 20th, then shoot me a PM so I can get an accurate list.  Thanks guys!  It's gonna be a fun time.

I also found out why there aren't any rooms available to rent for that weekend..... There is a massive group of Honda Civics, and Ford ST's coming that weekend..... SO! We can look forward to having some fun with the little rice burners! haha. Here is the link to the Dragon website: http://www.tailofthedragon.com/calendar.html
gonna be a busy day up there, but, we can make a couple runs through the Dragon, and then head over to the Cherohala Skyway (aka high speed dragon)

ok.... so I received one reply to all the private messeges I sent out to people that said they were "in" or "maybe in".  I have now had 0 people tell me they are coming.  If this is something you all don't want to do, then just let me know.  I don't want to try and set anything up with the photographer if nobody is going to show up.  I just need some feedback from the people that said they were coming.  I honestly don't know if anyone is coming or not.  Again, the date is September the 20th on a Saturday.

I was unsuccessful at convincing my better half that this would be fun for her birthday (the 21st). Even said she could drive(scary as that sounds she's pretty decent). This is on the bucket list for the near future though. Thanks for your effort in this and I hope some can get out there to experience it.

Sorry SHO-Tym, we've had a pretty drastic life change recently. Maybe we could set something up for spring of 15. Although I bet the run is awesome in the fall...

We need to get this rescheduled.  Unfortunately, I have a business trip on the 20th, so I would not have been able to make it, so I am glad you cancelled it.  I was thinking about driving up there this weekend, but my kids are coming here instead.  They are both seniors at UT, graduating in December.

I haven't been around in a while.  I did this many moons ago in my WRX.  That road is a blast!  Scheduling is tough for me to say the least.  That weekend would not have worked.  I will try to keep an eye out for another attempt!
