Hey Sean, i know you guys got screwed out of the dragon in 09. Any thoughts on going again in 2010?
The vette may be moving down to Florida in the coming months and I will have to drive it back up for the August rally. I was just thinking that if the Dragon is planned of 2010 then i can schedule my trip and meet up with everyone there. Adds a decent amount of miles and time but makes a fun trip out of it instead of straight Orlando to Boston.

I was thinking about doing a dragon run in 2010. It would be in the spring though so it won't interfear with people that are coming in August.
If we do them too close together then we will get less participation on them both. People will have to pick one and I want to try and make it so people can do both with some planning of funds.
I'll start looking into hotels around march. Most places in that area close for the winter.

Yeah, thats what i figured. I would not expect the runs to be close to each other. Just trying to figure out if i need to plan my trip sooner rather than later.
I'll keep my eyes open for a sign up thread.
Is winter over yet?

Just because there is snow on the ground doesn't mean we can't go for a cruise.
I drive the Z year round.
I'm trying to set something up right now that people would LOVE. If I can make it happen, I'll set up a cruise.

I am game for things in NY, but the affinity of the NY State troopers may see me actually being well behaved. Right, well anyway it sounded good didn't it.?
I cannot drive in this area without getting pulled over for something anymore

Not sure I was even going the speed limit that time. May remove the RS window tint, it looks good, but just does get in the way a bit at night and seems to draw attention to the car.
Oh, and just so you know my last 3 tickets were tint and no front plate related. Those are real menaces to other prople

i dont know how serious you guys are about a 2010 Dragon run but when i go with my R32 group we stay at the Fontana Village Resort. Cabins are like $120 a night and fit 5 comfortably and the rooms are cheaper. Plus they do group rates for car groups too. Just thought i would let you know if you are still looking at hotels and such.
Also, I would more than likely be down this summer. I went down in early April this year and they closed Deals Gap because of the Rock Slides on 129. :blueballs:

Yes sorry lol. Do you guys go down every year?
I know of a couple of car clubs that are doing the dragon this year. I'm trying to see if dates can match up and we can make a HUGE gathering of it.

It was. Sometimes we do a early fall run but its usually only the locals so there is only 10-15 that go. We try to avoid the summer because of the tourism and heavy traffic.
