Dragons Tail Meet/Drive - June 2012

Rather then completely sabotage dcb's Dragon's Tail thread I thought I'd start one so we can try to plan a meet. The Boston guys are coming down June 5-10 so we might want to aim for that time frame.

Is anyone else interested? If so, let's try to get up there for a drive. I live 1/2 way between Atlanta and the tail so if anyone is coming up you are welcome to come by for a 1/2 way break. There are also some awesome roads right near my house as well. As stated in the other thread I'd like to aim for a week day since the area gets congested with Harleys, cops, and other slow traffic but that might be difficult.
(I swore I'd never go on a weekend again a few years back when a Harley crossed the yellow line coming my way (5-10 mph!) and caused me to put 2 off to avoid killing him)

If a week day doesn't work we could go up on Saturday, June 9th.

I would love to do this, but that week is particularly bad for me. I'd like to shoot for a mid-week timeframe to avoid the worst of the traffic. I could probably swing the following week or two, but don't base any group decision around my schedule.

Hey Dan, I'm thinking I might be able to get away on Thursday June 8th. Trying to talk a couple of buddies to join me. We'll try to head out in the early afternoon and spend Friday on the dragon.

I'll know more details by Monday.

Sounds good. I'll do my best to leave those days open. As of right now that should work. I have a DE on June 4th @ Road Atl so I'll just leave the sticky rubber and track pads on the car and get more use out of them later that week.

Hey Dan,

I'm going need a rain check for next week. Things are not quiet enough at work for me to take Thursday off and my weekend has been booked for months.



I will be looking to do this in late summer/early fall.

Dang! No Atl representation! I understand though and you are forgiven. It looks like a big group of awesome cars are coming down from the North East so I'll try to get some pics.
