    Tail of the dragon meet 2019

    @k757 travels an even further distance than I do. Plans are still being formulated at this time. The people who do these trips regularly are extremely experienced drivers and the pace can get to be a bit much for newcomers.

    Tail of the dragon meet 2019

    I'll be there twice this year if all goes according to plan. Let's see if the fall dates can line up.

    Spartan's 2011 CBP Civic Si Coupe

    Thanks @webby! And yes, the pics do hide the paint imperfections. The hood was also resprayed by the dealer but there's tons of issues elsewhere. I will decide what I'm going to do next year. It's for the most part sitting for the winter.

    Spartan's 2011 CBP Civic Si Coupe

    Hello Friends of yore! After much hemming and hawing for over a year, I finally found a car that I've wanted for at least a decade. After playing with Subarus (LGT, WRX) for several years, I've come home to Honda. This began in August of 2017 when I purchased a 2nd Gen Ridgeline. The car itch...

    Tail Of The Dragon VII 2018

    We'll see what happens this year. I took my Ridgeline! down there last year and the Killtruk did surprisingly well. It was actually terrifying how good it was.

    bootyluvr's 2015 WRX Limited

    I have Dunlop Wintersports. Every snow storm I'm out driving for one job or the other. I also like being able to haul *** comfortably even if the temp is in the 10s or lower. Also lightweight summer wheels with Dunlop Sport MAXX RTs are awesome =]

    2016 Tail Of The Dragon Meet V September 22nd-25th: Chat Thread

    ^^^ Yikes! I just read that the place claimed it was a "sign malfunction" We've been monitoring the situation closely. This is a very difficult decision due to the basically 24 hours some of us have to make a call. Another solution of course:

    Radios for the 2016 Trip

    Just a quick update, the bulk of us are or will be purchasing GXT1000s. For those who are bringing their own radios, headsets of some kind are recommended. We will be trying to maximize the hands-free potential of these radios. Thanks!

    Radios for the 2016 Trip

    I didn't initially either. I know other people use them but they assume a risk I do not want us to take.

    Radios for the 2016 Trip

    It doesn't matter as they are not legal for normal use. Even if we *could* get away with it, I'm not taking the risk and don't want anyone else associated with this group taking that risk. The channels it had are FCC monitored emergency channels. Even after programming them correctly you'd still...

    Radios for the 2016 Trip

    Updated the first post with our new radio choice. These will work with other namebrand shorter range radios. We decided on these because they have better range and should get more reception in the hills.
