I talked to the fine folks at the Shular Inn a little while ago, and they have confirmed a "roped off" area for our cars. :2tu:

You are so the man! Let me be the first to say THANKS to EVERYONE involved in setting this weekend up (wish I knew who EVERYONE was)!! I know a lot goes into this stuff behind the scenes and we/I appreciate it! See you all this weekend and some tomorrow night!!:2tu:

As long as the TN Hangin' Judge ain't there (where there's rope, there's usually, ahem, a hangin'!), we should be safe snakes :D:crazy2:

Just curious, is anybody planning on trailering their car? I was going to but it seems like it will be more of a PITA. I just didn't want to put 1000 unnecessary miles on the car. Do I get a prize for driving the farthest?







:D :D :D

Well, if I do drive, it will be the 2008 SRT-10. I am leaning that way too. I just won't have the time to mess with the truck and trailer. So as of now, 90% it is going to be the new car :D/:(

Decided to take the SSR's off and put the 20's back on, managed to break two of the studs off the right front. Just got it tore all apart, hope to get new studs put in, in the morning. Wish us luck we're going to need IT!!!

I generally take 75s to 640 then to 40 and on to pigeon forge. Im thinking getting to Exit 376 from your map should be about the same time or sooner. :dunno:

CALLING ALL EARLY ARRIVALS (THURSDAY AFT/EVE): We will meet at Kroger's parking lot, Northshore Drive (Exit 5 on I140 Pellissippi Parkway) at approx. 6:30p ET. Leave shortly thereafter. Posting my cp# on profile - call me if plan on doing this run!
Directions from I40w/I75s take exit 376B (towards Maryville & Airport). Go to exit 5, Northshore Drive. At bottom of exit ramp, go left (back under I140) and about 1/16 mile on left is Kroger's. Will meet on low side of parking lot behind the fuel station (100% gasoline!!).
The Dragon is calling...:2tu:

Someone had already messed two of them up before it was mine, thought they might fix themselves (wrong) :dunno: . Found studs already and it's back together, will be leaving about 12:00. :headbang::drive:
