My university car club always does a trip up there over our spring break. It’s a grand old time.

Theres at least one other oppo in there.

I’m “only” two hours away. Freakishly, a good bit of Tennessee is just as far away from me as the TotD or less, because long tail of WNC is loooong.

There’s also the part where I don’t have anything running and worth driving on the dragon right now, so there’s that.

Eight month window to get the Ranchero or Lincoln on the road, or to get a Fiero or Cougar? You drive a hard bargain, Mr. Black.

Make sure you don’t bother doing any of the official events. I should definitely be down there again, so you are more than welcome to join me. I plan on avoiding the dragon for the most part (other than evening/night time) but there are some other roads that are just purely amazing. I will probably end up camping again since that worked out perfectly.

I don’t live anywhere near there, but I will surely be traveling there again!

Always gotta have an excuse to make another trip. My girlfriend thinks I am absolutely nuts to go drive 10 hours “just to drive around all day when I get there”. I mean she isn’t wrong, but it’s so worth it!

Depends on the date, but I’m down. It’s only about 5 hours from Cincinnati
