"THE" Official 2010 Fall Dragon Run...Oct 7th thru 10th!

That is impressive.


I've driven going to the sun road in Montana. Which is not like the dragon, and almost like the million dollar road. It just has 1' high brick wall.
 
Dillion is bringing his 15" Weber grill

Dillion is bringing his 15" Weber grill

Dillion just told me he's bringing his grill, so Dan, you don't need to bother with loading yours up for us to use but thanks anyways. I see that bad boy getting loaded up and people getting served "hot off the grill" and then, more stuff going on since we've got so many people to feed.

Hey Randy or anyone else, what do you guys think you'll pick up for the grill? How about sides or are we just doing chips or something:shrug: Don't forget, WE WILL chip in towards the food once we get there, no deadbeats here but you probably know that already.
 
15" grill isnt very big if you are going to feed almost 40 people. plus, you can cook a couple different things if you have both. also, with the dutch oven you can cook desert like cobbler (whatever flavor you want) or things like biscuits. Im still going to bring them when i meet you guys and the group thats there can decide if you all want to borrow them.

I think we need to bring your stuff if you want people to get their food in a reasonable amount or time.
 
Yeah, i was just going to say. It's only a 15" webber grill. I can't see it feeding more than 5 people at a time.

If 40 people are going to be eating grilled food we will need more than what i have for sure.
 
Not sure how many people we've got on the grounds at the cabin but I don't think its 40 but yeah, 2 grills would really help out. BTW, who are the cooks on all these idea's? So is everyone cool with Thursday being our cookout day?

Old School!

Yeah, if you guys pick the food up in Robinsville just make sure you ice it down though, don't want it to spoil. How about Sweetwater, a bit closer.
 
I know there is a grocery store in Louden, just 1 exit up from Sweetwater. its also where Trey lives so you could even stop by and bug him. :laugh:
 
I found that pic when searching for old Dragon pics and that was from 4 years ago. I read where it said "Wow Hectour, you must have been driving slow, look how closely Roger is to you!". Kinda funny because a bunch of cars were behind the Crossfire and they asked me if the car was stock and I said yeah and they said it was sure going around the turns pretty good for being stock, an S2000 and WRX were among those who said that too. Not patting myself on the back but just sayin'.

Alot of the pics were gone because I had them on my old Club Photo site and they're long gone, that sucks too, oh well. I wish I could've driven an EVO out there, just to see what its like to drive a "real" car out there. Oh well, the Mini was the closest I had to that moniker so far. You guys that have "real" cars, really appreciate what you've got out there!
 
The guy Evan from Tenn, who" HAD" the newer Fit like mine, has now upgraded to a brand new Genesis coupe. Its a turbo 4 with the Track-Pack (19's and Brembo's) I'm sure its a 6spd and its "arrest me red" too. Its probably not going to have anywhere near enough break-in miles as he's getting Monday or Tuesday and only has a 3 hour drive to get to the Dragon, so maybe 500 miles on it, max. This guy is 6'7" and said he needed more room...ummm, not sure how much more is that car:shrug:

He wants to sell me a solid, 19mm rear sway bar for my car off his 09' Fit for $120 ($140 new) and he said it made a big difference in his car. The stock car has a 17mm and this one is 2mm larger, what do you guys think? I'd probably want it installed while I'm there but that isn't going to happen so it would have to wait till I got back home and see how it goes but it would be on there and all done with. We'll have to see how it goes I guess.
 
Update:
NOS Plugs are in.
HIDs are in. Wow! I likey:laugh:
Brakes done
Found some 9005s I won in a raffle at SZ05.
Going for test drive tomorrow. If it all works out I'll go for an alignment.
Fabricated MIL eliminators.

First off, why did a 6'7" man buy a Honda Fit, did he always want a clown car? :lol:

Get the sway bar bro, it can't hurt right? Seems like you plan on keeping the car for awhile, so you might as well make some tangible upgrades other than looks!

Brett Favre for the football fans or Bobby Orr for the hockey fans days to go!

This reminds me of a couple of years ago when my gps took me, Pete, Randy and Jason on this tiny back road one night while the rest of you were busy running over dogs. :laugh:
