ATL Area G/Z Owners -- Time For the 1st Spring Mountain Run in April
 
What's up guys? I think it's about time for a mountain run. Below is the information about the route we did the last time. Please vote on the date(s) that works best for you so I can finalize everything. YOU MAY CHOOSE MULTIPLE DATES. I hope most of you who attended that MEGA Southeast GTG on March 19th will be able to make this run.

Riverstone Pkwy to I-575 S - Google Maps Scroll left to find the route in BLUE
1. Leave Canton Starbucks - get a coffee for on the road (point A)
2. Stop 1 at the overlook - take some pics and enjoy the scenery
3. Stop 2 if lunchtime stop at Chic-fil-A in Dahlonega with possible pictures at lake Zwerner just north of there (point G on map).
4. Stop at Vogel state park - not sure if we have to pay to get in, but maybe stop there for a minute.
5. Head back folks from the east-side can take 400 back south, other take rt 53 through Dawsonville to Tate, which is a nice route.

If you have 2 way radios, we will need them.

I encourage you to join the Southeast Z Owners group since it is easier to find and follow information on there. Most of you are members, so if you're not a member you can go to one of our pages and select Join Social Groups on the right under Group Memberships.

Z1804 03-23-2011 08:07 AM

If any of you have any ideas to make this run better based on what you've done in the past, let me or Dai know.

daisuke149 03-23-2011 08:35 AM

put me down like a rabid old down.

SPOHN 03-23-2011 09:19 AM

I picked Sunday the 10th by accident. Dang IPhone. But Saturday on the 9th and 23rd are good. I like Sundays but I have meetings in the morning from 7 to 10.

Man it's been awhile since I've been there. Later well have to discuss the route you guy like. I only know one that I always took. Plus I'd like to see again where I had my accident if I can remember.

I set it up that you should be able to select multiple dates. You should be able to go back and select them, I think......I will track the selections and highlight the dates that work the best so a final selection can be made.

Sorry to hear about your accident. Our goal during our runs continues to be bringing all cars back. We hope this will continue as it will get more and more challenging as the numbers increase.

SPOHN 03-23-2011 09:42 AM

I just can't wait to get my LSD installed. That will be a big plus for this event.

torpedo2k 03-23-2011 09:45 AM

If its a Saturday I can go depending on the date. I have a couple of Cobra radios w/7mi range (line of sight).:happydance:

raybuck 03-23-2011 10:29 AM

There is a HUGE Genesis Dragon meet April 8-10, we all should combine a big mountain run.

When we finalize the date I'll let you know. If that weekend ends up being the selection, then that would be great.

HKYStormFront 03-23-2011 03:35 PM

i can't do the 9-10th nor the 16-17th but i'm open the weekend open after i think... that's what i voted for, not that my vote counts... :P

Of course your vote counts. We want as many people to be able to make it as possible. We hope you'll be there.

eddieconfetti 03-23-2011 04:26 PM

ill try to make this one hopefully. i didnt choose a date cause i got no idea.

cereal2k 03-23-2011 08:16 PM

The 9th is a detailing clinic, the 17th is import alliance. perhaps the 24th would be my vote or any other day.

Yep, already did.

sTeadFasT96 03-23-2011 09:31 PM

I'm getting tires soon and I'm not sure if they'll be broken in by early April. As Lee's mentioned before, there's a few events going on. I picked the 23rd and 24th.

Also, have you considered adding this portion to the route? The 2 times I've gone, this is the route I've taken and it's quite enjoyable.

apexi957 03-24-2011 12:40 AM

I'm in

Nismo221 03-24-2011 01:41 AM

The 23rd is the only date I maybe able to make.

Carbon_z 03-24-2011 10:43 AM

Im game......

Billet370 aka Moses

sTeadFasT96 03-24-2011 05:37 PM

I voted for Saturday and Sunday the 23rd and 24th but I think the 24th is probably THE best for me right now.

JvKintheUSA 03-25-2011 11:13 PM

Prob will have to be a Sunday this time for me.

DGMG35 03-26-2011 09:26 AM

I'm in.

sTeadFasT96 03-26-2011 01:17 PM

I really want to make sure that safety is emphasized for this run. I really do not like the guys who think public roads are their proving grounds and try to race around.

Nismo221 03-26-2011 02:06 PM

when are we going to know what date we are doing this? And what time will we start?

G.Nasty 03-26-2011 08:36 PM

I'm in - add me to the list - i picked the 23rd and the 24th

B996 03-27-2011 02:13 PM

I will be available the first few weekends in April, looking forward to it!

Armonster 03-28-2011 08:13 PM

How many stops are we planning on making? I am a bit concerned about my lack of an oil cooler.

I don't have an oil cooler either bro and have been fine both times we've gone. We normally stop 2-3 times for pictures.

devnull 03-28-2011 09:00 PM

Mark me down... I'm in fo dat!

:D

SPOHN 03-28-2011 09:03 PM

Gettting my Uprev and LSD installed on the 11th. :woot: And picking up my Sport brake upgrade from Z1 next Monday. I'll be good to go then.

Midax 03-30-2011 11:08 AM

When will you decide on they day? It is getting close to some of those dates.

We will finalize the date this weekend.

JvKintheUSA 03-31-2011 08:18 AM

Maybe we can do a Saturday and a Sunday run. Looks like we have quite a few interested in a Sunday run.

i was hitting 250 on my base last time we went... not sure if i'll make this one, if so, i'll just show up when a date is decided upon.

if i do go... i'll be one of the cars in the back, not too interested in pushing my car close to its limits... that's how i felt at least last time.

I'll prob hang out toward the back as well. I have not tested the limits of this car yet so I'd rather ramp up the speed at my own pace. Plus... I'm technically still in the break-in period.

another thing that was holding me back, was that i had never been down those roads before... and i am always hesitant when it comes to unfamiliar (curving) roads.

Nismo221 03-31-2011 10:00 PM

I dont even live in state and I'm coming! Just keep your eyes open and foot down!

Z1804 03-31-2011 10:56 PM

Okay guys,
It seems like that 2 most popular date are:
  • Sunday, April 10th
  • Saturday, April 23rd

We can either do both to accomodate to most of us or just vote for one. Let me know what you would like to do.

Nismo221 03-31-2011 11:45 PM

I maybe able to do both depending what time we start.
