I departed around 11:30pm and got home around 5:30am. rain and fog made my trip a very long drive. At least until I got into Kentucky, then it was drying and moving fast. But I have to say, the rain made me very cautious due to prior experiences on the wet roads. But glad I did, but am I beat today

Was that the car up on the right side of the mtn ? I left around that time and saw it pinned there.
If you saw an 06 silverstone, then, yes, that was probably them...

Just got off the phone with the rest of my crew... Everyone is a-okay. They are currently enjoying dinner in Lexington, VA.

Unfortunately for them, the delay set them waaaaaaaay back. They still have a good four hours until they get home.

Home safe and sound. I ran with several cars, none of them S2000's. 2 BMW's and a 4-door Civic SI stayed with me for about 75% of the trip. No accidents and clear weather once I got out of Tennessee.

Yep. That was them. Didn't look like any visible damage. I'm curious how they got the car off the side though. Glad they were ok, the Dragon was nasty this morning.
