I wanted to attend this year's Rock the Dragon event to drive my car on some awesome roads in the mountains. I knew I was going to an event where I would not know that many people, if any at all, as the only other S2000 events I had participated in were the last 2 years of Indy @ Midohio. I still strongly desired to go so I signed up, registered, paid the man, and signed up for the OKI caravan.


I had rather high expectations leading up to the event that were somewhat lowered by the forecast, which ended up not being an issue at all. My expectations were completely blown out of the water. The only thing that might be better than our wonderful car, is those that attend this event. You are all awesome.


I had a great time caravanning with the OKI group, the stay at the Lodge, the drives during the day, the hangouts in the evening, the picnic, the big rollout to the gravel lot, and the banquet. Thank you all for a great trip.

It was good to meet you at the Park Grill, I wish I had more time to meet more people. As a newbie you have so much to take in over a short period of time. It was a great event with lots of great people. The Dragon itself turned out to be just a small part of the event, there is so much more to appreciate at such an event.
