Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches Southeast Interest check...Dragon Run 04'

So please excuse my ignorance, but where is exactly is this?

www.tailofthedragon.com if you're asking about the Dragon run & the Skyway. Very informative web site, from details of the many roads in the areas to places to eat & stay.

Sweetwater, TN is right off I-75 at Highway 68 if that is what you're askin' about. A short drive east down scenic 68 & you'll be at the south end of the Skyway.

You know theres wheel whores, exhaust whores and then theres Blake...sweet ride whore. When did you get the G35c and what does it look like, any pics I thought that Miata was going to tie you over, but I should've known.


As far as the second week of Oct, I don't have a problem with that, anyone else

he posted some crappy photos over in pics and vids back when he got it. blake, is there a "virginal" photo angle remaining?

Well, it's like a 10 hour drive for me to Tellico Plains not to bad. The next step is checking with my wife about a "mini" vacation.

Does any one here have kids? If so what do you guys do drag them along? I have a 10 month old.

My wife & youngest were with me on the last Dragon run. I even brought my dog. The smokey mountains area is some of the most breathtaking scenery in the country - especially in mid October. The trip will be mostly about that. Even the roads leading up to the Skyway & the Dragon are designated scenic highways - like Hwy 68 for example. If you must have other things to entertain the troops:

There are flee markets, antique shops, the underground lake, and Chattanooga is a nice place to visit with the family too - Tennessee Valley Railroad & all. Dollywood a few hours north and there are even a few wineries to visit. They make a respectable Reisling in Tennessee.

Not to mention the camping, scenic overlooks (which we'll likely pull over to sightsee), boating, fishing, fall leaves, and the Smokey Mountains Parkway is quite popular that time of year, but watch your speed up there. Strict enforcement.

I've not been to the Indian Reservations & villages. Anything to write home about??

Please fill me in on what is available on the NC side of the border....

Yeah, there's all kinds of stuff to keep the little ones occupied. I mean, I get cranky after lunch if I haven't had my nap, but I'm usually well behaved.



Like Jim said, all the roads are a great drive. From where me and Josh live, we don't even touch the interstate. It's all 2-laners from Dayton to Tellico Plains.

I would like to come, hopefully I will have more suspencion mods.depends on date

So who all is coming? I know me and Josh will be there; and Jim owes me a drag race in Chattanooga.


Also, what's the definite date? It looks like a lot of people are leaning more towards the second weekend in October instead of the first. That's cool by me; just seems like that'd be better for you'ins.


I'll see ya'll there.
