it was nice meeting you and mike. the car looked sick in person. definitely jealous of the jwt especially since my buddy just got the 700bb's. sorry if i was pushing too much on the way back from the dam after the pics, it got pretty exciting. im uploading my pics and vids right now and should have them posted in the next day or 2.

the weekend was awesome! I wish we could have gotten day pics for the group photos, but oh well! At least we had a great time parking in the circle
I got to check out your car at Zdayz. Looks great (I'm not a big fan of black rims, but that is a personal preference).
Did you drive the car hard on the dragon? I think a TT car is a tad much for the terain there, but fun none the less.

yea we drove her 3-4 times on the dragon, but living so close to it, we go nearly every weekend anyways its not bad at all, just learn the curves and STAY IN YOUR LANE!

I drove the hell out of it when I took my Mini Cooper down there 2 years ago, but with the G I guess I just didn't feel very safe. Too much power, too big of a car, and too narrow of lanes.
I guess though, in comparison, I probably made it through in close to the same amount of time as I did in my Mini, but the difference was I ran the **** out of my Mini, and I barely got on the G.

How often to do you encounter big 18-wheelers on those roads? I saw from some pics http://www.tailofthedragon.com/dragon_trucks.html that they cause big problems on such narrow, windy roads like the TOTD. Ever have any incidents up there?
