Is there a date set for this yet? A friend of mine kindly reminded me today that formula D will be here in GA that same month so I am trying to see if they would conflict.

Default Bumping this thread to revive it!

OK, I know it has been a few years since we started this thread and a lot of things happened that got in the way of it, but things are settling down and I want revive it and make it happen in 2015. What do you think members? Let's discuss and see if we can get this to materialize.

Darryl, let's discuss how we can make this a fun and safe and real event!

Count me in. I live within 30 minutes from the start of the dragon. There is also the Cherohala Skyway, which is a little tamer, but just as fun as a return loop for those having to return West.

Awesome! Let's all start brainstorming this and getting the people in loved to help make this a reality and fun event. All cars are welcome, but it will primarily be a Lexus event. Although my buddy may decide to drive his McLaren instead of his Lexus SC.

I look forward to putting my SC through the paces.

I'm in for sure. I've done it with two other groups and it's a blast. Prefer not the first part of may due to Love Bugs ( driving up from Florida). being this late though it might be tough to get some cabins. Always make sure you get a cabin that has a decent driveway...some are like going off a cliff to get to them and if your car is lowered then you'll likely scrap your lips up pretty bad.

Default Ga Here

I would love to go! My family is all American Muscle and they all have done the dragon a few times. I don't have a Pony so I don't go. However, my F Sport would love to tame it!! 3.5 hrs from me.

Hey everyone
I live in Atlanta and would be interested in a group meet/drive as well. The Dragon has been on my list for a while but I haven't made it a total priority. This could certainly be the push my F and I need.
ill keep checking back for updates.

Excited to see the interest!

Good news is my son's SC400 swap from a 1UZ to a 2jz is practically completed. My SC has been repainted and it should be completed soon. No dates yet but we are working on it. Biggest challenge is when we can get the time off from work. My son is new to his job and in school, so we will know more soon and will try to coordinate a date.

My buddy is doing an Import Day in Hiawassee Ga on May 17th, 2:00 p.m at Asianos1382 highway 76, Hiawassee Georgia 30546. Afterwards they are going over and doing the Tail which is about 1 1/2 hrs from the restaurant.
