I am heading there either in May or June with at least 2 other RX-7's we can meet up. I know a dude might be meeting up with us from Baton Rouge.



I am toying with buying a set of Kumho V-700's just for the trip. I know after about 10 turns I will be cursing at my Toyo Proxes. Mazdadrifter might do the same.



I will have in car vid set up too. Possible an outside cam by then too.

A friend of mine slapped a cam corder on the gas tank of his motorcycle and filmed his run. It makes me motion sick to watch it. It is literally knee 2 knee turns.

Come to think of it. That section of the smokey mountains reminds me so much of Japan. I was stationed in Sasebo on the southern island of Kyushuu for almost four years. And the mountains look so much alike. Maybe your FD was made for such a course...

2ndGenerationY, are you reading this? We have some spare time next summer, don't we?



The only question will be what car to bring.

That's the same map I posted in the last thread about the Dragon. It makes me want to pack up and leave right now.

Ha, that's great. When I read this earlier I pondered in the back of my mind what it would take to talk you into yet another road trip. (Perhaps we should take a trip with each car. )



I don't know if my mind could comprehend. Too much scenery. Dammit, I need to live out of the Midwest for some part of my life!
