MR4 UPDATE - Please Read !!!
Tentative Itinerary
Sun May 8 - 8:00 pm Driver's Meeting in Gatlinburg
Mon May 9 - Day 1 run (choose a route)
Tue May 10 - Day 2 run (choose a route)
Wed May 11 - Day 3 (caravan to BG for pizza)

Driver's Meeting
We will go over final details, answer questions, suggest routes for you to choose, etc. etc. Most (probably all) of the MR4 info will be emailed to each participant at least a week prior to the Driver's Meeting

Tentative Routes
MR4 participants will have a greater choice of routes this year including Wayah Rd that is "new" to the MR routes. Route choices range from 137 miles (3:29 driving time) to 288 miles (7:12). The shorter routes have more scenic stops, plenty of time for lunch, and will be fairly relaxed in nature. A couple of longer routes are available especially for the "iron butts" ... no more complaining about not having enough seat time. Look at all the routes HERE. Contact me with suggestions or additional requests.

Accommodations
The MR4 hotel is the Park Vista in Gatlinburg

Participants
Now's the time to sign up. Let us know you're going.

MR1 had the original Magnificent 7 ZR-1's; MR2 had 15 cars; MR3 had 36 cars; here's hoping we have a big turnout for MR4. If you've never made the Mountain Run, now's your chance ... it will be an experience you will never forget and most likely you'll want to repeat.

Charlie - looking forward to seeing you this year. Hope you can work it out plus bring as many of the Wazoo gang as possible. It would be great to see a big caravan running down I-81.

dredgeguy · 02-15-2016

It would be a blast. I know Dempsey (Oricale) is in as well. Hopefully many others from Wazoo land will come out to play.....

Ahomans · 02-15-2016

I'm in. Another from WAZOO.

Wanted to give everyone a heads up, Fontana resort is booked solid for our event. I am trying to find accommodations to support 60 rooms.
I started posting the Venue on the Simple Corvette, C4 modified, LT4-LT5 owners, C4 Corvette, ZR-1 Net Registry and Specialty C4 groups in Facebook. With the traction I am receiving, I do not believe 60 rooms is going to be enough.
When George and I started this event three years ago, We started with the Magnificent 7. Our goal was to get 100 Corvettes to participate. I did not expect it to come to fruition so soon.

You are leading this year.

Gunny · 02-16-2016

Fontana is totally booked (except for 4-5 rooms) by the MiniCoopers, who changed weeks from last year. We may be faster but those spunky little Coopers are quicker, at least when it comes to booking the rooms we thought we had. Ah well, 20-20 hindsight. And we only found this out in the last 12-18 hours ... so all the work Robert was doing on the rooms is basically a start over, but no worries there, he's a magician & a genius when it comes to finding accommodations.

And the maps that I've been working on for "more than a couple of hours" are out the window (maybe use them next year) so I'm working on alternate scenarios that will work with our new "headquarters". I was a bit disappointed when I learned what happened but dug back into my map software and believe that we're going to have a terrific mountain run. The wife always tells me to make lemonade when you're thrown a couple of lemons and my cup already "runneth" over.

So, no worries ... MR4 will be great ... and if you see any Coopers on the road ... well, I'm sure you'll think of something

Stay tuned (i.e. check this thread often). We're working hard on a quick solution and will post the outcome here ASAP.
