Default Is Anyone going to be around the Dragon Tuesday?

I have to go to Lake Santeetlah for a work project Monday evening through Tuesday afternoon (Sept 14-15). I hope to get a room at the lodge since it should have vacancy Monday night the 14th.

Will anyone be in the area Monday night or Tuesday? I'll be at Fontana...alone with nothing to do but a late night Dragon Run. Unfortunately I can't stay for DBR'09.

I will be in my S2000. Can't go to the Dragon in my company truck!

I may be able to join you. I just need to check the status of my brake pads and be sure they'll be able to take the upcoming abuse of this coming weekend.

Yup...I saw your car. I had the Sebring with OEM lip parked the next cabin up from you. Unfortunately I had to leave for my project site about 8am on Tuesday and didn't come back through the Dragon till about 1pm.

Had a couple great runs, even with wet roads. I've really gotten better about bracing the side of my foot off the transmission bell to keep throttle uniform through the corners!

One thing I notices is that they actually paved all the pull offs along the dragon!
