Sounds good Ely. I'll try to get some of my pics up tomorrow. I would've done it today, but I had to work and I stayed overtime by about an hour.
Love the pictures. like to say again how fun it was yesterday. Maybe next time ill be smart enough to put some more gas in the car and get some new tires so im not sliding every which way cause of a small shower. :-P It was cool meeting everybody, whats this about a dragon run some of you are talking about?

I edited my past list because its just gotten too damn long. The ones listed are the cars that i Truly loved, which includes every BMW i've ever owned.
The Dragon (Deals Gap) is a very fun road(without traffic that is) located on the Tennesee/North Carolina border. It is US129 and has 318 curves in an 11 mile stretch. The road is exteremly fun but can be very demanding. There are many deaths on this road every year. The road is still traveled by alot of 18-wheelers and vacationers that are just passing through thinking they can get through it. Here are picswhats this about a dragon run some of you are talking about

Thanks Steve for your efforts in getting the run together. Once again, we all made it back safely.
Had a great time even though the rain sort of slowed things down a little.
It was good to see new faces and meet everyone. It's always a pleasure to run the roads with you guys. Here are a few pics, I didn't take too many.

In August a Semi truck ban was approved to keep trucks off the Dragon, so soon there won't be the semi problem, just the pesky tourists.

I had a great time too, and it was nice seeing you all out again. Since, I missed the Signal Mt portion of the run, I ran it on the way home, and headed up to the Widow Maker again and battled with some Ninjas... I'll post that video soon :-)... For now, here's 1 video and 1 pic I put together.
and a video...

Hey guys, had a great time as usual. Sorry I forgot my camera and I won't be posting any pics. It was the first time to try out the new Jim Conforti goodies and I've got to say they were worth the money. Next time I'll hopefully unveil the supercharged e36. Now I need my exhaust that's on backorder from understeer. That should have me sounding right. I got depressed when hearing both the ///M's. CED, agreed you're is super sweet. Can't wait til next time guys.
