Thanks!

That's the new CC. That specific one is owned by Volkswagen of America and has a body kit and 20" wheels.

The guy w/ the Mustang ran out of money for tires after he bought his waste O brakes. Nice coverage & a great place to go :thumbs up:

Great pics! Man I love the R32s. Were you able to get over to the Cherohala Skyway that weekend?

s2000101, this is for you: http://www.tailofthedragon.com/

I live about 45 minutes from there and try to go there during the week at least a couple of times a year, because sometimes its like a 20 mph parade on the busier weekends. If you haven't done so, check out the "Devil's Triangle" too http://tailofthedragon.com/DevilsTri...sTriangle.html

Our GTO group has started running it the next day after the TOTD & the Cherohala. By god its so far back in the sticks you start hearing banjos...

My uncle said the same thing about the Mustang.

Wilwood brakes, Sparco seats, Eclipse double din navi, and Cooper tires? Something doesn't add up.

See the post a few below yours for more info... but basically it's right in between Robbinsville, NC and Fontana, NC.

About a mile or two into the dragon on US129 you will cross the state line into Tennessee. The state line sign is humongous.
