Most expensive ZR-1 in history! --Bob

When it comes things related to cars I've always found it better to beg for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

Robert,

LOVE this idea the Grand Sport Registry did this last year and about 4 years before that and it was a huge success. However I voted no because I would never be able to take that much time at once off of work.

The Tail of the Dragon is a local run for me as are the Blue Ridge, which I'm assuming you are talking about. The Dragon is over rated by far and over crowded. I would NOT do it on the weekend, every bicycle, car or motorcylce try to hit it on the weekends. Dangerous and Deadly!!!!

There are better less traveled and unknown to the public, roads that are far better for sport driving that is less dangerous.

The WAZOO and NE crowd could take the Blue Ridge Parkway up most of the way. A Beautiful drive in itself. A great jumping off point is Fontana Village.

Well said!!! But does it work???

Fully Vetted · 01-10-2013

It works as long as THEY don't start doing the same thing!

Ronstar · 01-10-2013

Sounds like fun. I could probably swing it with enough advanced notice

Here are my thoughts:
Sunday we all meet up in Alcoa, Tn
Monday we drive the smokey mountain range ending up in Vonore, TN

Tuesday, we drive MOONSHINER 28 from (Hexagon 1)Tail of the Dragon, all the way to Walhalla, SC. 103 miles (Hexagon 3)break for lunch, than drive back on Moonshiners 28 (Hexagon 8)connecting with the CHEROHALA SKY-WAY (Hexagon 3)stopping near devils triangle.

Wednesday, we drive Devils triangle than head to bowling green.

I am going to try and get Vette magazine to cover the entire week.
