Everybody was cutting out early in the morning. I knew I wouldn't get up being a night owl and the wife was needing some help with the dogs so I cut out for the house. I was at the house in 5 1/2 hours thanks to no Atlanta traffic.

I wish I would have hit that crack pipe Tail of the Dragon one more time before I left, LOL.

I have the group picture from the water falls. I'm trying to upload here but I keep getting a message for being too big. I don't know much how to resize or make them smaller.

I don't have any of that stuff. No facebook, no birdy ****, no this and no that. Just 370Z forum and a regular e-mail account.

I'm absolutely without a doubt not going to miss this next year. I absolutely have to do it.

Which means I have a year to get an oil cooler, hotchskis sway bars, and pads/rotors/fluid/ss line upgrade for the akebonos.

Memphis370z needs these things too. He kept hitting 250 degree oil temps on some spirited driving on 28. I kept getting some shaky brakes with my Akebonos after a little while. I need to get some brake mods going as well.

This was my second year and I didn't leave disappointed. This is easily the best car event I have ever been to. I met a few of you guys (My name is Nate), but didn't meet as many as I would have liked. I already have the cabin booked for next year so Ill hopefully meet more of you then!

Did anyone talk to a local at the Dragon? I did. I mentioned "Mr. Davis" and it got interesting. (If you know who this is). I will link the article about the King of the Dragon later.

Please do, Spooler. I'm interested in the article, as well as learning about your conversation with the local.

I had to come home and look at a picture in the article and put some stuff together in my head. He is not the only one who analyzes everything. It's the engineer in me. I can't help myself. I do understand why he is so guarded and will keep quite on what I think I know.

If I see him again, I will know. They don't call me the elephant at work for nothing.

Zdayz is very difficult to describe it was so fun. Meeting some great forum members and chasing down that dragon from head to toe. Next year is already scheduled in my book. It was my first time and definitely not my last!

But for next year, many mods to come to make the dragon even more enjoyable. Need some sway bars and a bbk.

Is this the article?

Says the unofficial record between the overlook and the state line is "around 10 minutes".
