Hey Guys,
Sorry we won't be able to make it (going to be at that Petit LeMans thing) but I think this is a great idea. Steve and I talked about it a couple months ago - we need an annual Southeast thing - as he mentioned in the original post everything else is just too far for us in the SE. And what a better way to enjoy our cars than driving the wonderful roads in that area!!

Take lots of pictures and video!!

Thanks for chiming in, Bob. So much going on in the Fall that every weekend conflicted with something.

Weather looks to be sunny and in the low 60s. Can't wait!!!

An event like this should definitely happen at least once a year (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Got a PM earlier from a teener in Nashville who, along with his wife, is going to make a weekend trip to the Smokies so they can join us on Saturday (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

Those are the best roads in the country I think. My other car club goes up there every year at the end of August and tours for a few days. The roads are so much fun. We base out of Helen Ga area usually. One of our club members runs up there nearly every weekend so he knows where all the good roads are. We just follow him for a few days. Its the most fun I ever had in my car. I bet it would be a blast in the teeners too.

As the weekend nears, let's try to get a rough count of how many people will be attending. I suppose I should call the Pizza place and let them know a (possibly) large group will be invading their space shortly after noon (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I will be there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif)

Yes... I was hoping people would confirm here now that the drive is just a few days away. I imagine some may have planned on going but something else may have come up. I will go to the Club site and bump that thread.

Sorry for the short notice. I am planning on attending the drive. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
Heading out of the Atlanta area so may have to pick up the drive in Waynesville at Nick & Nates Pizzeria if thats ok (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) If I think I can make Ashville on time I'll give that a shot.

Was going to Petite LeMans as I only live about five miles from the track but decided why watch other drivers when I can enjoy driving the twisties myself. Besides have done several in the last five years.

If anyone else is heading out of Atlanta let me know. Planning on leaving around six or seven and taking 441 north. There is always safety in numbers just in case (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Hope to see you all in Waynesville around noon. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Just found out there is some kind of festival going on in Waynesville this Saturday. Main Street will be closed off to traffic. Tons of people. Can not make reservations at the Pizza place because the guy said they will be slammed as soon as the doors open. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Guess we need to come up with an alternate plan unless you want to fight the crowds at lunch time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)

Any suggestions? Maybe a slight reroute to lunch in Sylva and then back out to the roads? Will have to take a look at the map to see what will work.

Will be great meeting you. Check with JawjaPorsche... he may be somewhere along the way.

Also note my previous post... Waynesville is hosting a festival this weekend so we may alter the plans a bit.

Tentative plans are to move lunch to the Nick & Nates in SYLVA.
Will put us at lunch around 12:30 to 1:00.

Stay tuned...
