Haven't seen a single post about a national get together for 2004. Would it be too soon to start gathering interest for a 2005 meet? I'm thinkin' someplace sunny. Houston, San Antonio. Someplace purdy. Denver, Moab, maybe a national park? Someplace to have fun with the cars. The Tail of the Dragon, Roebling Road Raceway, Sebring, or others that we might share with other clubs for a weekend - one day for us, one day for them. I remember reading of one in the hills in New York someplace. Just proposed for building with a great layout & excellent elevation changes that promised all sorts of fun! I wonder if it was ever built...  We could even plan it to coincide with another event like the road races near Vegas and maybe enter one of our cars, the Indy 500, Detroit Grand Prix. Any interest??
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Groovy! So you're the one to speak to for the Dragon run arrangements??
If so, I'd like to suggest a nice little hotel that is pretty centrally located & easy access for arrivals & departures. It's the Best Western in Sweetwater, Tn. located right off I-75 on Hwy 68. You drive scenic 68 right to the start of the Cherohala Skyway & begin the 1/2 day loop that takes you through the Dragon. Once done, you have about a 40 minute cool down drive back to the hotel.
I stayed there last fall. They've got a heated indoor pool & jacuzzi, you get a huge free breakfast buffet that includes drinks & everything - not just the little toast & doughnut crap. The owner Bill is a fun guy too.
There ain't much to Sweetwater, but there are a few good places to eat - including Bobs BBQ. GREAT ribs. They've expanded twice and have been open about a year.

I've got you one better, we stay in Tellico Plains, which is right on the start of the Cherahola Skyway (well were 3.5 miles off of it) These are cool little log cabin that cost my wife and I $135.00 for (3) nights, can't beat that. I really liked them alot and they even have ones that are bigger and sleep up to 4 people and have a jacuzzi too. Those are only $90.00 a night, so if a couple people go in on those, its dirt cheap! I'll be setting something up in the mid part of spring, its never to early to get things going on this. I'd say we'll have about 4 other Tours coming down with us, so its going to be a good time for sure
