A poker run is an organized event where participants, usually using motorcycles, snowmobiles, boats, or horses, must visit five to seven checkpoints, drawing a playing card at each one. The object is to have the best poker hand at the end of the run. The event has a time limit, however the participants are not timed—winning is purely a matter of chance.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the record for the largest event was set in 2009 with 2,136 motorcyclists benefiting the Fallen Firefighter Survivors Foundation (FFSF)
Can we beat this number>

Wow, that would be hard to beat. And as much as I would like to be able to spend $10,000 plus on prizes (assuming a $5/car fee), I would hate to think of the Dragon with 2,000 + cars running around on it!

11 miles = 58,080 feet
13.5 x 2(leaving just one car length between each car) = 27 feet needed per car
58,080 / 27 = 2,151
2,150 S2000's will cover the entire 11 miles of the Dragon.
