About to leave for my procedure. I hope all goes well, so I can see everyone.
Good luck and may you be flowing freely (and painlessly) by the end of the night!

When I talked to him this weekend he was definitely in.
PS I'm trying to see if anyone wants my hotel room before I cancel it.
Also, I guess this is me verifying that I am not coming.

I had already crossed you out.

Crazy man from California here. I'll be there tonight, Tuesday. Did someone say the Tail is closed at night?

After 8pm there's a detour that goes into the back of Fontana.
Wait.. what? Why is this? How exactly does that work? I'm going to have to look at a map or something.

I may not make it on Wed, depending on what procedure is done. I will still try to make it, for some of the weekend

Um it's posted on TOTD's website, the left turn right after Tapoco lodge takes you to the backdoor fontana entrance.

Now for my disclaimer:
For people who are new to this meet...DO NOT try your hardest to keep up with the veterans / more experienced drivers if you see us pulling away, we're not in a race, some just drive more aggressive and spirited than others. Whether it's at the turnaround, deal's gap, or Fontana, we will all meet back up, you wont lose us or get lost. Some "things" have happened in the past because people would overdrive the car or their abilities and make mistakes, I don't want to see anything bad happen this year, the meet last year went well without any accident or part failures (unlike the 9-car 8th meet). If you feel that I or others drive too fast let me know, chances are my car won't be as grippy as the WRX last year so I'll have to tone it down a notch.
I will say that the N.GA drive is pretty hardcore and there is the chance of getting lost so if you're a first timer or not confident in your abilities driving on roads like this you may want to sit that drive out or ride with the more experienced members who have done this drive in the past 2 years.
