I love all the stereotyping.
People stereotype Camaro owners too.

There is so much to do out there in that 3 state area I can't believe people would complain about traffic on one tourist trap road. I have been out there multiple times and have raised hell, had a blast and learned how to ride better. Adventure..get in it.

^^^ Yes! And 19W just west of those roads about 5 miles is awesome too! RxRated you've found the "sweet spot!"

Was there this weekend, had a blast. Just wish I had more time in my car before going. Now thinking of starting HPDE training and then go back next year. Damn it was fun. Cherohala Skyway is awesome too if you want a little higher speed action with a lot of turns and some vista views. Can't wait to go again.

Where is this road...I may have done this in the dark..in a mini van...baby in a car sear and a 10 yr old in the back seat with motion sickness. It was in Tennessee the Smokey Mountains. We had visited a pioneer town at the top if a mountain. I can't remeber the name. Am I in the right area?

Drove it a few months ago when I went up there with some friends for a week.
Except I left my Camaro and drove my buddy's Explorer. It's just not the same, man, sure wish I took my car. Also almost got hit head on by a dumbass kid thinking his lifted Super Duty was a sports car. The moron came at least five feet into my lane taking the turn way to fast. |

Drove the Dragon a few months ago in a C7 corvette and a Porsche 911 and loved it. The motorcycle drivers were a pain, but most of them were kind enough to pull over when they saw me coming. Very spirited driving in those two cars. If you can catch it with light traffic, it is a great road to test not only the cars ability, but your own. Going back up there in a few in an Audi R8.

Thats it....my sister in law was on a nursing assignment for a year in Winston Salem North Carolina. We drove down to visting from Ontario Canada. That road went for about 100 ft then hairpin ....another 100...then a hairpin. This was before it had a name.....2002 or 2003 I can't remeber.
