NC Tail of the Dragon

Hit up route 129 (you know, 318 turns in 11 miles with a shear cliff on one side and a rock face on the other) with my wife while delivering the FB I just restored to my Dad in Florida. Heres a link to the pics

haha, just realized when checking my link from a different computer that it goes to page one, the pics are half way down page 30, so heres a link to the first pic, and then you can scroll to the right to see the rest, there are about ten shots, with two pics of a honda mixed in for some reason, anyway, let me know what you think

DGRR in my humble opinion is the best rotary event on the East Coast. Can't wait to go again this year.

I spent a bunch of days at the Dragon with the MINI club. What a blast, it made me trade my G35 for a MINI Cooper S. The G had to go, I messed up and bought an auto.

Thats is a realy nice FB. A guy at my job bought one from his grandad who was the original owner. The car is immaculate with only 40,000 original miles on it.

ive heard form some folks that it is hard to enjoy the tail in a car. A lot of motorcycles riding all the time. Is that true?
