I called for the room last night there's no more 2 queen bed rooms. I got a single bed with an air mattress. If anyone with a 2 queen room that needs to cancel please let me know.

FYI - Donze's name is Ralph and his name should not be blue. This is not his first Dragon event.

Hi Crystal !! I saw that post and thought it might be Ralph; Now I'm sure. It will be more fun knowing you two will both be at the Dragon this Fall. See you soon.

Correction. The Chrysler Crossfire does not have a "Cup Holder," It has a nuisance device which punctures Styrofoam cups and pops up to takeout your elbow if you drive a stick shifter. It is there to remind us that the Germans have it right. Although American drivers demand it,,,; No honest sports car should sport a "Cup Holder."

Hi Frank! Regardless of the liquid one should not be drinking and driving at the same time, especially in a sports car! So I use the "cup holder" to secure the walkie talkie we all use while at the Dragon. The holder works really well for that as it is well within hearing and quick to get at if one should wish to enlighten others with words of wisdom, dire warnings or local folklore.
Check your schedule Frank. I will bring Laphroaig if I know you will be there.

Thanks Guys, for the laughs.

cheers

For those coming up or from south of Atlanta ,,
go around Atlanta on the by pass and go on 85 norht
You want a nice drive and an introduction to dragon type roads
take i 85 out of Atlanta TO i985,,,at the end of 985 take 129 and 19 north through, Gainesville, Cleveland to Blairsville stay on 19 and 74 and 129 going to Murphy N.C. stay on 129 , 19,, and 74 to Topion Ga the 129 to Robbinsville now take 143,,and 28 to Fontana village, it is a fun 189 mile drive ,, jim

Or they can take GA400 north from middle of ATL off I85 and it dumps into 19 then 129 as well!

Is anyone going to have aftermarket parts for sale. Need to know how much cash to bring with me for the ride. I’m thinking about coming.
