9thcivic Tail of the Dragon 2013 ???

Hi! I have a question. I've been watching video of the dragon, and I want to know how fast are you all driving when you guys take on the dragon as a group?? I want to come, but it looks a bit scary to me. I do love corners, but it seems like too many too quickly.

The thing about the videos, mainly driving footage from the exhaust video, the gopro footage from the red s/c civic, is that it's showing the faster, more brave drivers of the group. The 4 of us (my wrx, ken's vette, red s/c 8thgen, white s2k) were pretty far ahead of the group on that run, and we were going pretty hard.

Most people are there driving spiritedly, but well within our limits. Honestly it's really difficult to drive hard on the dragon because of the traffic and bikes.

You'll do just fine, get familiar with the roads first or even take a ride along with the more experienced drivers, some of us have been here 5-10 times or more and know the roads like they're home.

That is prob all I need. I was planning on the rs3s with 15 x8 tr motorsports wheels in black.

If you remember that was the setup I recommended a couple of years ago. It looks good too!

The M3 wasnt there last year lol, we wouldn't see it anyway, it's like an apparition, here one minute gone the next.

Don't forget the Fits and my lonely LX

The Friday run was fun minus some of the traffic we hit

I am planning on being there and I have a slow car and I drive slow. Ill bring up the back with you!

Delaware is a nice starting area for a caravan, near Hockessin, right by rt7 preferably, lol.

I do. I just didn't have any reason to buy it until I was ready to drive it again.

So I sat n a '01 Chevy Corvette Z06 on Friday as a possible replacement to my '11 WRX. No good with headroom. I fit, just barely, without a helmet. With a helmet, no chance. oh well.... moving on

That stinks. Hope you find what you want that works.

What about a C6? Maybe the roof line is higher.
