:ttiwwop:

[Cobra4me]

I apologize with the lack of communication yesterday. The cell phones where useless. We missed meeting up with the folks from tenn. So essentially those folks where separated from us. My apologies to Steve, Lora, frank and all the others. The nc group did meet up with the folks from Atlanta and we ran the dragon 4 times. Some pics where taken but have not been posted yet.

[lorahcobra]

Sorry we missed you guys...but the 5 of us ran the Dragon 2x then hit the
Cherohala over to Tellico Plains where we met up with Frank and had an awsome lunch!! Then it was back to Pigeon Forge for everyone except Steve Smith who headed for home. We started our day at The Diner for breakfast and ended up there for banana splits. :bounce:

Long, but great day!!

[Cobra4me]

see you guys at exit 100 around 8:30sorry you had issues with the car. They told me that the car was leaking fuel pretty bad. I hope all turned out well

[crutch95]

i did make it back home. I will have to start taking it a part some time this week week and see what went on with it. hope you guys had fun and maybe next time i will be able to go.

[rs16]

It was the first time I had a chance to drive the car the way it was intended..:eek: ......kinda glad the wife wasn't along..:D


Too bad we all couldn't get together, would have liked to meet the rest of you........that day is not far away.
