Mountain Run 6 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Gunny · 02-19-2018

Mountain Run 6 is scheduled for May 13-16 (Sun-Wed), 2018. The home base for MR6 will be Fontana Village Resort in North Carolina (approx. 10 miles from the Dragon). There will be several tours (routes) from which to choose including one or more runs through the Tail of the Dragon, the Smoky Mountain Loop, Cherohala Skyway, Moonshiner 28, Wayah Road, Suches Loop, Fontana Dam, Gatlinburg and more. The first road tour will be on Sunday with additional tours on Monday & Tuesday. On Wednesday we will caravan from Fontana Village to Bowling Green, KY to attend the C4 Gathering at the NCM.

Participants planning on driving all three days of MR6 should plan to arrive in Fontana Village by Saturday evening. Note: the extra day was added by request from previous participants – anyone arriving on Sunday will still have two days of driving some of the most scenic and exhilarating roads of the east coast.

As always the only cost to participate in the Mountain Run is lodging, food, and fuel.

To participate in MR6 please do the following:
• Notify the organizers that you plan to participate and also provide current contact information
• Make a reservation for a room at Fontana Village (March 11 deadline)

Please post here if you plan to participate. You may also send a PM to Gunny or cvette98pacecar (Robert DeMarco). We will add you to the MR6 Participants’ List and send email updates as well as posting updates in this thread.

VERY IMPORTANT !!!! March 11 is the deadline to reserve a room at Fontana Village. Normally we would have until mid-April before releasing unused rooms in our block but Fontana is receiving numerous requests from other groups wanting to stay there during the same time. It is possible to attend MR6 without staying at Fontana but the closest hotels will require at least a 30 minute commute to Fontana at the start of each day.

Reserve your room ASAP by calling:
Fontana Village Resort
300 Woods Rd
Fontana Dam, NC 28733
(828) 498-2211
Fontana Village website
Be sure to mention that your group is: Corvette Mountain Weekend 2018. Lodge rooms are $114 and there are limited numbers of cabins and cabana rooms at $133 and up. IMPORTANT: when you make your reservation make certain that you indicate Saturday or Sunday arrival and that you are departing on Wednesday.

Questions? Post here or contact Gunny or Robert via PM or email.
