The Scenic City Miata club is putting together a group to hit the Dragon on Monday 01-17-05. That's MLK day. Times are not certain yet but most likely we'll meet that morning at our usual Waffle House in Ooltewah. It's at I-75 exit 11. Bimmer folks welcome! I'll post finalized details soon. Let me know if you are interested.

P.S. Weather is looking good so far. A little cold but rain is not expected.

Phil,

You don't expect us wimpy BMW drivers to go out in the cold do you? We'd rather talk about agressive runs vs actually doing them, thank you very much.

I'd be there, but uh...ah...eh, oh, I know, I have to work. Yeah, that's it, I'm working.

Post a picture or two so I can Photoshop myself into the group shot.

Unfortunately, a death in the family will force me to cancel my virgin visit to the Gap. :mad So, I will have to wait a bit longer. Someone let me know next time a group is going up!

Sorry to hear about the passing.

I can't believe the best driver I know has never been on the dragon! We go alot, I'll try to remember to mention it here.

It was very cold but the road was completely dry and seemed to grip better than ever. We got six runs in. I left after three runs. I was suffering with a mild stomach flu that was not conducive to dragon slaying. I was upset about leaving too. It's not often that you find the dragon with so little traffic and so much grip. Here's a shot from the overlook with our cars and a WRX from Florida who joined us for a while.
