The Dragon at night is definitely an experience. My first time driving it was at night. It's amazing how much less you see relying on your headlights. I'd sign up but I don't think I am at a spirited pace yet.

Good thinking though!

We've done it for several years, and it's not as spirited as a day run. Put yourself further back in the pack, and if you're not comfortable, pull off and ride it at your pace, and meet us up at the overlook.

Add me to the list. Coming in with the OKI crew. I will be running a GoPro on the bumper and in the cockpit, so where you deem best to set in the line (not the Lead) will be fine with me.<div></div><div>Cheers
