Tail of the Dragon
Meet potential?
Who is going?
Oct 4-5 The CEG (Contour Enthusiasts Group) is planning to drive the Dragon and neighboring roads. There will probably be about 10-15 Contour SVT's, Contours, and a few Focus in the mix.
Sold 1998 Contour LX 13.868 sec 1/4 mile time.
Two years of rental cars, seriously.
Holding out for 07 Cobra Mustang.

2nd and 3rd,,, if everything goes as plan, my friend will be bringing his srt4 up there as well,, ya'll better watch out, it's already got a cai, motor mounts being ordered, and more to come (rfl was traded for the cai, so another bov will be coming sometime as well)... Though he isn't that experienced of a driver, so all modified contours/svts should be able to hang in the 318 curves. Maybe Tim (atl-svt) could come,, that would be sweeet. I'll be the losest HP car there though unless another zetec shows,, ya'll don't go too fast in the 2 or 3 straight parts of the road pleaze....

It's all driver, Ross. The MTX's rarely get out of 2nd. Just leave the ATX in 2 and let the tranny do your breaking for you.

I'd like to see us get up there near the 15th or 20th. The fall leaves are nearer their peak at that time & it makes for nice photo shoots - 'think Con-tique of the month'. A few action shots with some leaves a-flyin' would be cool too.
In addition, the leaves comin' down keep the bikers away so there is almost no bike traffic to contend with, just leaf lookers (most of them will be on the Smokey Mountains run).
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

That's true. But if it's nice enough out, Killby will be out there taking real professional shots. www.killboy.com IIRC is his site.
Yeah, that's the site. Lots of pics. Here's us from last October:

Those pix are OK for a novice photographer, I guess.
