Cool Love to have you there. Do me a favor and follow the contact directions on the web site, so that I can start building the event database (contact info, that sort of stuff).

Sounds like fun! If I'm not out of the country, I'll be there.

I registered on the site and already asked off from work. It's a long drive from Raleigh but I think I can do it.

Just registered and have the days off already approved. Hope you don't mind a Georgia owner coming up to join in. Not too far of a drive as I'm just south of Chattanooga, TN. You might want to post this on the other Regional boards in the area. There seems to be a good bit of interest outside the Carolinas as well.

I signed up today! I can't wait, I have a nice DSLR camera that I will be bringing for photos. Hopefully we can fit in a lunch meetup so I can meet you all before then

The funny thing is for 5 years I lived in Asheville NC and never heard of this place lol

Drove the tail of the dragon yesterday! What a lot of fun!

There was light rain falling so that slowed us down and a Sherrifs car was also an obstacle. The smart holds it's own because we also came across 2 groups of motorcycles that slowed us down.

Would love to do it again next September!!!!!!!

We have already reserved a room for the 25th and 26th at the MicroTel in Robbinsville! Check the smartCARolinas site for moe info. And also take a look at Graham County websites to see how neat this area is. And if you like to clog - or look at it - Fontana Village is having a cloggers convention during this time. I dread to think of the horrible consequences of altitude, moonshine and clogging. We will be safe from them in our smarts I truly believe.

I can't wait. Went to give it a run myself last weekend and got featured on Killboy's blog at killboy.com photos - The Original Photographer from Hwy US129 Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap . For those of you who don't know Killboy shoots and sells photos of cars/bikes as they make the hairpins at different points along the dragon. He does great work. The shot that was featured is below:
