Default Saw some beautiful roads to the Smokies...

We recently took a family trip to the Smokies driving up Hwy 40 into the Smoky Mountains. Besides a few state troopers and people driving 10 under the speed limit (wth is up with that), the roads were simply awesome. Passed through a few small towns and the windy roads were so much fun to drive.

A lot of us were surprised how "commercialized" the area was with what my wife called a mini version of the Vegas strip! We had to travel quite a bit to get away from all the tourist stops but it was well worth it.

I think it would have been fun to drive through the national park in the s2000 to take in all of the nature areas but we had to settle for our sunroof! haha

Too bad you missed doing the dragon. That's our favorite road in that area.

Yes sir I'm here "part time" but still a visitor as I get lost left and right...haha

I really miss having my s2000 out here and even thought about bringing it out temporarily but just doesn't make sense financially. We thought about buying a second one............for 1 sec before my girl slapped me!
