Since it looks like we are going to have a good turnout for Dragonball Run 2002, I was wondering if we want to try and break down the driving into groups depending on how fast people want to go?

The drive over to the Dragon, and our runs on the Dragon can be as one group, but if there is a Saturday and Sunday drive, we might want to break it down into smaller groups. Sounds like this worked well for the Fall Colors Meet.

Just a thought. If we do, I volunteer Mack to lead the SLOW group! And GregStevens to lead the group up I-75 again!!

I never did look at the speedometer... I was too busy trying to avoid slow moving cars, and keep from hitting the other S2000's that were trying and passing me.....

Wasn't there a policeman that entered into the picture with Stevens leading the group as well at one point?!?

I was in the only Very Aggressive Group that was in the Fall Colors event and it was lots of fun. I was trailing so probably was not as fast in the turns as others. I was asked how many times I caught air and I said ONCE......the leader replied......I guess I wasn't doing my job then!!! Though from the way Stevens and Nick(if he comes) drive is beyond aggressive. Border line insanity!!! Those that know Stevens and how he drives and would like to keep up with him do so. Though those that wish to keep it on the edge but not on the edge of out of control.

Those that have seen the dragon first hand as well as the video that was played know what on the edge of out of control is. Yes thats the one with the trooper in it!!!

I think that was during the Saturday drive. I know a group blew by a cop in the medium, and then they took off when the cop had problems getting out into traffic. They all headed for the hills.
