Deal's Gap Rotary Rally 2008 Sunrise Run

Heads up video of my sunrise run on the Tail of the Dragon.

Here you go, Friday sunrise run with myself driving, InternalCumsucktionEngine as co-pilot and ZGN (Car behind)

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/2...Run_157819.htm

Towards the end we're verbally man loving Herblenny and all the effort he has put into organizing DGRR.

Next time I need to get a 20% fish eye lense to get a better perspective of the speed or get a racecam setup with two pencil cameras and a built in G-sensor.

Samsung X sports camcorder with a pencil camera attached to my head with an elastic strap.

Ask Herblenny directly to get full exhaust specs, it did sound really good in person by the way. Your best bet is to go to rotarycarclub.com to contact Phil. He doesn't frequent this forum now days.

2800 miles round trip will be an expensive trip. I want to do the same, but fuel cost and needing an additional 6 six days for travel kinda killed that idea.

Agreed, but that area already does so just from tourism.

I need to win the lottery, so I can pay the NC and TN patrol to shut that road down for a little while and have free raine of it.

afgmoto1978, you didnt record all of the dragon. It goes down past the dam and actually ends just after the bridge. awesome video though, I plan to get a camera and window mount for next years event.

I know, and I have on other occasions with quieter cars (rentals). I didn't want to be an *** and wake up all those people at the Dragon Motel.
