We won't be going fast enough to worry about blind spots.

Is there any sort of room share happening? Not sure if the girlfriend wants to come with me on this drive. I'll double check but she's not a big fan of a long drive in the smart.

Also, how many previous model ForTwos (the 450) will be there? Is it just cassini and myself?

Also, has anyone looked at the official Tail of the Dragon website? There is a radar map in PDF form that tells you where police are most likely to be shooting radar.

Simple just don't speed and no fear of radar.

From the Fontana Village website:
Fontana Clogging Jamboree - Sept 25-26, 2009
Join clog dancers from around the country for a weekend of clogging workshops with America's top national instructors, live bluegrass entertainment, exhibitions, parties and more. This is Fontana's longest running and biggest clogging event so join us for some foot stompin', yee-hawin', banjo pickin' fun in the great Smoky Mountains!

There are very few rooms left and probably not enough booze (might even be a dry county?) to get you through the night!

Those cloggin' animals have been doing their annual thing at Fontana since 2003.

Top back, gotta go.

It is a dry county so bring your own. Closest beer is a small store 6 or 8 miles beyond the Dragon on the Tennessee side. Been there-voice of experience.
