Default Pre-Dragonball Deal's Gap Run on September 7?

Hello all! I've been planning a meet similar to the Dragonball the weekend prior to your event for a group of Lexus enthusiasts. My girlfriend has an NSX and she also made a post to a NSX forum inviting some other NSX folks to come along. A couple of S2000 guys also responded to her post... which led me here.

We've got a much smaller group than you guys (I'd estimate about 20 cars will go) and have caravans coming up from Atlanta and Charlotte. I thought I'd officially extend the invite to anyone from your group that wants a practice run of Deal's Gap the prior weekend to your real meet.

We're going to stagger our driving groups according to suspension mods and driver aggressivenes - safety is of course a consideration on a road like the Dragon.

If you'd like to come along with us, you can email me at DaveGS4@Clublexus.com or click on this link for more details about our meet.

Hope to see some of you there - if not best of luck on your Dragonball!
