[QUOTE=Autom8r]Ron,

Welcome to the finest online (and offline) Corvette site.... always glad to see another Tennessean join the ranks. We gonna have a big time in Pidgeon Forge!!!!!

The Deals Gap and Tail of the Dragon tour sounds like "The Bomb". I drove them last time I was in the area over 20 years ago in a 944 and it was a great run. Just forgot the official name.

With my logistics of working in TN and living in FL I have to plan events.  I am working on being in TN for this one and hopefully I have enough head start!

I estimate the entire Pigeon Forge to Tail of the Dragon and back to be a "three hour tour".

Of course, we all know what happened to Gilligan and the skipper.....

Yep, she's driving them in her C4, but you'd best not be right behind her. Her personal speed limit is 45..... which is pretty hot for most of those roads, but she is not as big into G-forces and tire smoke as I am.

Dave[/QUOTE]
45? Well, maybe I shouldn't laugh cuz I've never been on that run before!

Ron,

Three hours is PURRRRFECT..

Take note Mr. Adam.... sounds like a plan...

Micki,

As I recall the longest straight is about 200 yards between hairpins..... 45 is pretty hot....

From early morning to noon is good with us.   My lady and I after lunch will take a trip to the Dragon and should be done in 4 hours max.   Getting back in time for dinner and the track session at 8pm.

If anyone is interested in traveling to the Dagon with us after lunch is Very Welcome.

Put me down for the Dragon and for the cookout.  Both sound like a lot of fun!

So what about Friday?  Any thoughts/plans for that day?
