That's where I am Joe. This car was built for highway running, but it handles so good, I need to see what it'll do at the track.
It's been a good 4 years since I've been down to Tenn. for the Tail of the Dragon, so I've got the itch to drive real bad. -------------------- ~bloodMoney

I would like to get a group together to road trip down there sometime! I think all those curves would be so much fun! I saw somewhere that a 1st gen Celica group does it every year. I'd love to meet up with that crew as well. --------------------  1999 - Toyota Celica GT Vert Black 1999 - Toyota Celica GT Vert Super White |

Remember that time we went to the movies?
We could do a 6GC escape room...or a Dave and Busters- as a back up plan if we wanted to still plan to meet outside- it's just getting cold as hell at night already who knows what it will be in a month. |

I saw somewhere that a 1st gen Celica group does it every year. I'd love to meet up with that crew as well. We went with the celicatech group every year for a good 7 years. But now that we're all starting families, it's hard to make the time to meet up from all over the country like we used to be able to. Driving the Dragon is a good time, but towards the end, we would be down there for 3 days, and only run it once. It was more family reunion than driving trip. The road itself does not mess around. You want some serious driving, almost every road in the area takes concentration. -------------------- ~bloodMoney

I've heard police presence has increased along the trail as well in recent years due to inexperienced drivers taking on the dragon. Not sure how true that is though.

Y'all can come and help me put this engine together and into the engine bay. That'd be considered an inside plan.  damn trans won't mate up to the engine. I'm sore and frustrated. Gonna hulk out soon. lol
