Papa_Smurf
09-03-2008, 08:14 AM
M-F count me out. I wouldn't be able to get back to atlanta area untill... 3pm on friday @ the very earliest.
I know week mountain runs would be best, but i just dont see that happening, with people in schools and having jobs...
I'm thinking Saturday or Sunday morning, again. Ya know, it wouldn't be a bad idea to camp up there sumwhere like friday night, so we could wake up early in the morning, saving a 1-3 hour drive for alot of people.
just a thought.

No camping for me, I only camp once a year for three days, and it's barely a choice sometimes. lol

not tyring to be a kill joy but, we need a limit of people going. if there is a ****t load of people we will spend all day trying to keep evryone together. last time we had a tough time keeping everyone together and there was like 12 or 13 of us.
the last reason is the cops! if there is a very large group well will draw large amounts of attention. again im not trying to be a ****k or anything,im just saying if were gonna do this lets go about it in a smart way.

Or split up into two or more smaller groups(fast, intermediate, noobies) Although everyone will think they should be in the fast group :D . Then have different way points that we all meet up at, etc, like for the cookout and stuff.
Black R
09-12-2008, 10:02 AM
simple solution is to go to walmart and get walkie talkies. that way everyone in a 2mile radius can hear everyone else. and you can say watch out for traffic or cops or whatever. :)

^^^THIS MAY BE THE BEST SOLUTION. THE WALKIE'S MIGHT WORK TOO, BUT PERSONALLY I WILL BE TOO FOCUSED ON THE ROAD. I DONT KNOW IF U HAVE BEEN UP THERE OR NOT BUT I LIKE TO KEEP BOTH HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL, I DONT SEE SOMEONE TRYING TO TELL EVERYONE A COP IS COMING UP OR BEHIND IN THE MIDLE OF A HAIRPIN ON 180.
THE BEST IDEA WOULD TO HAVE MULTIPLE GROUPS AND HAVE A LEADER FOR EACH GROUP. I WANT EVERYONE TO HAVE FUN AND GO HOME WITH THERE CAR IN THE SAME CONDITION IT CAME UP.:goodjob:
ALSO PLEASE DONT COME UP THERE WIT BALD AS$ TIRES WANTING TO RUN IN THE FAST GROUP OR AT ALL FOR THAT. :screwy:

09-15-2008, 07:21 PM
If you're new, all due respect, run with the slower group. Not at all to down or doubt your driving skills, but the EF Squad "keeps it real" up there. The fast group travels fast (at least...the did when I lead). Let them get to know you, if they don't already know you. And let them see you know how to drive. If you ARE new to the mountains, please please PLEASE run with the group as I've seen too many cars up there coming out that are fairly nice cars and they go flying off the mountain or in a ditch or something. 2 over the edge, 1 in a ditch, and several spinning out in my time JUST from my groups that I've personally witnessed up there. One of them being myself.
I heard someone say...trackday? Still awaiting orders, ya'll! I'll keep you posted...
Oh, and about the walkies...if you get walkies, great idea, but get the ones with the longest distance. Just cuz the package says 12miles doesn't mean you'll get even 6... And also, for the "two hands on the wheel," that's why I always had a "date" ride with me. Or, you can always just hit the "call" button. One quick tap, and your hand is back on the wheel. If your hand can't let go for that quick second, you shouldn't be up there, anyways...

Im debating going on this one. But please folks if you wanna be stupid, ride people's bumpers, pass on yellows or generally act like an idiot please stay home. We were able to keep this to a minimum on the last run. There is no sense in ruining everybody's time because you think its a race.

no no, I was talkin' about for ME. She'll probably be a build mini-me simply so I can stay in specific race classes when it comes league time. But I've also gotta see if it'll allow me the same suspension setup I had, before, and see what brake work I can do. I wanna stay EP or E. I'll probably shoot EP.

I HIGHLIGHTED FAST BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE LIKE TO THINK CUZ THERE CAR IS TURBO'D OR HAS A BUILD B18 OR WATEVR, THEY THINK THEY WILL AUTOMATATICLY BE IN THE FAST GROUP. IF U DO THINK THAT WAY U ARE SADLY MISTAKEN. LAST TIME WE WENT WE HAD PEOPLE THAT WERE TRAVELING CLOSE TO THE FRONT OF THE PACK, BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THEY COULD KEEP UP. BY THE END OF THE DAY THEY WERE IN THE BACK, SO IF U ARE PLACED IN A CERTAIN GROUP DONT B1TCH ABOUT IT JUST PROVE THAT U CAN RUN WIT A FASTER PACK THEN THE 1 U WERE WIT.
THE FAST GROUP NEEDS TO CONSIST OF 3 THINGS.
1. U HAVE KNOWLEDGE & EXPERIENCE OF THE MOUNTAIN WE WILL BE ON.
2. U ARE NOT A DUMB A$$ THAT IS GOING TO BE DOING STUPID SH1T
3. HAVE THE RIGHT SUSPENSION, TIRES IN GOOD CONDITION, AND U WILL BE RUNNING FAST BUT SAFE PACE.

29th? Damn...I've got the time...but not the gas money...
I HIGHLIGHTED FAST BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE LIKE TO THINK CUZ THERE CAR IS TURBO'D OR HAS A BUILD B18 OR WATEVR, THEY THINK THEY WILL AUTOMATATICLY BE IN THE FAST GROUP. IF U DO THINK THAT WAY U ARE SADLY MISTAKEN. LAST TIME WE WENT WE HAD PEOPLE THAT WERE TRAVELING CLOSE TO THE FRONT OF THE PACK, BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THEY COULD KEEP UP. BY THE END OF THE DAY THEY WERE IN THE BACK, SO IF U ARE PLACED IN A CERTAIN GROUP DONT B1TCH ABOUT IT JUST PROVE THAT U CAN RUN WIT A FASTER PACK THEN THE 1 U WERE WIT.
THE FAST GROUP NEEDS TO CONSIST OF 3 THINGS.
1. U HAVE KNOWLEDGE & EXPERIENCE OF THE MOUNTAIN WE WILL BE ON.
2. U ARE NOT A DUMB A$$ THAT IS GOING TO BE DOING STUPID SH1T
3. HAVE THE RIGHT SUSPENSION, TIRES IN GOOD CONDITION, AND U WILL BE RUNNING FAST BUT SAFE PACE.
Perfect example. Our "grand old man of the squad" ran stock motor. He could run right beside me on one of my worser days without a problem. I've see other cars, such as highly modded turbo'd VW's stick to the rear of the pack due to the intelligence they had to realize they weren't ready for the front. It's not about the car. It's baout the driver. And even if you think you're good...you're probably not. I'm highly respected in my skills...yet I still think I can do better with more practice. I won't by any means claim to be "good"
ant where does this place me?
super slow, right? i'll be in a pack of my own.
To the "How'd he get down in the creek?" pack. :lmao:
yea ik ant, i'm just messing. but i'm not comfortable what so ever if i'm not following someone. i have no idea why, but thats just the case.
Aww...you miss me...

no but u are in it already just cuz u and brad can take a run any day of the week, so that gives u the experience. + i rode behinde u in the last run, i know u will be running up front.
i actually think u should lead a group, brad lead a group, and possibly me lead a group. im not too shure if i want to thoug since i cant remember all the roads sometimes.

So, I'm the "grand old man of squad" now.....:2up:.....
...well....that is assuming you were referring to me...
But, I'm pretty sure Ben was talking about me, and yup, I did my damnedest to keep up with Ben's pace....on a stock engine....and stock suspension...which was also most likely the original 230K mi. (at the time) suspension. Oh, and stock brakes. :eek:
Ben's absolutely correct in that a large part of enjoying one's car centers on the driver. *The best* mod any of us can ever make is the "driver mod". That's the one where the driver actually learns how to drive the car.
Anyway, I still don't think I'm really all that fast. I have lots and lots left to learn on the subject.

I say you should go ahead and put in this "LS/V with ITR Goodies" in it so you can actually make more than 120 WHP, plus a little extra power would help you get up those hills in the mountains. I'm not saying drag racing is harder than driving in the mountains but it's definitely not as easy as you think young man, ask Darryl and he'll tell you; and trust me I am no pro either. I definitely admit that it takes skill to be able to maneuver through the curves and I am willing to learn how to be a better driver in the mountains; that's if you're even that good ;) but yeah I could also give you a few pointers at the dragstrip also.

Talked to her about it. She's coming up tomorrow and we're ognna talk about things. She's very very likely moving up here.
The ONLY reason I'm willing to try things with her is because we've known each other like 4 or 5 years. We've dated on and off like 2yrs or so. She's had PLENTY of time to get with someone else, but she's always stayed loyal to me...even when I was seeing other girls, she's just been waiting.
I know she'll be loyal...but if she licks some dude, I expect to hear about it before I find it myself. But the story checked out legit. Although I'mn ot happy about it...she didn't do anything beyond that...I'm willing to deal...for now.

i just want to say a couple of things - i don't want to go in a group with anyone who 'thinks' they are fast. that's why i initally inquired about a 'cruise'.
i'm not interested in egos and leadfoots. attitudes and driving like that are more likely to endanger you and everyone who shares the road with you.
put me in the slow group so i can have some fun with the curves. or better yet, i'll hang back and wait till everyone has been gone for a good 5 minutes before i start out. that'll leave me plenty of room to do my thing.
also, and this should be #1: make sure you have GOOD TIRES, GOOD BRAKES, and good fluids. Those are the most important things - not power. if your tires are over 200 treadwear, you should definitely not be in any 'fast' group.
myself, i'm going to run on street tires but new pads and rotors. i hope you will all take the time and a few bucks to at least do the same.

I was joking about the fast car thing, I may be fast I may not. I just want to enjoy my first mountain run. I have new tires, 12.5" rotors with Hawk Performance Ceramic Brakes, and Royal Purple fluids. Oh yeah they are 200 treadwear as well:

Agreed man. This goes along with the "I have an engine swap and all these mods, so I must be fast" BS. If anything, I would prefer the less experienced to be on higher treadwear tires. All weather street tires are easier to read, they'll let you know when your getting close to there limits.

09-22-2008, 07:39 PM
were just saying dont expect to be in the fast group cuz of those reasons. it's like i said people may start w/ one group but move up by the end of the day, it could be someone wit a d15 or a k20. it just all depends on the judgement of the leader of the group. if the leader of a slower group thinks someone is faster than the group they are in, but is keeping a safe pace they may be able to move up depending on the size the next group. leaders will be people who have experience, will not be doin stupid sh1t like crossing dubble lines etc...
EvasiveEF9
09-23-2008, 01:22 PM
yeah, I don't now how it's run, now...but I had a rule of no crossing the double yellows. White was at your own discretion. Illegal passing ONLY if the "slow driver" has had a chance to let you pass. Experience in the front, noobs in the back.
Even our "slow" group was pretty fast-paced. the main reason I lead teh "fast group" was only because I KNEW the course... Anyone who says the slow group is actually slow...really is a dousche, overconfident, and it's proabbly going to get them killed one day. These ARE public and open roads...

I should have my rear discs done and the SI master...
I'll probably come up there, but hang out near the back, or with this so called "slow" group. I still have the stock hf motor and don't plan on putting in the mini-me for a couple months.
I know the mountain very well, but will most likely be running on my daily driven 13" wheels/tires.. So again i'd like to come cruise and hang out with everybody, but won't be driving hard for a few more months.

Not positive on the mountain run, but I"m still looking at coming. I can probably only run the mountain or run the strip, so Im' in debate which to go to if I can only afford one.

Alright kids...I was up in Dahlonega yesterday visiting friends. This IS scheduled the weekend of gold rush. In addition, the mountains are now HIGHLY patrolled. Went up on a Tuesday, and I saw at LEAST 10cops JUST on the way up to the mountains. I didn't even bother making a pass.
I wanna go with ya'll, and may still go if ya'll keep the date, but it's not at ALL a good idea...

Usually during gold rush there are a ton of GSP and law around the square directing traffic etc. I would actually venture to say that law enforcement on mtn runs will probably be at a minimum since they allocate so much resources to managing traffic. Its just getting around town is a little more difficult.

10-08-2008, 08:20 PM
Guess I'll be the first to flake out. As of right now I'm up in the air on this one. Nothing to do with gold rush, but as of now my white car is in the shop and I'm not too sure what I got planned for it. lol

So should I feel better that the law won't be around the mountains & we should be fine or should I be disappointed that there might be a lot of cars around the mountains & we won't be able to do our thing? I don't live up there so I don't know but is it worth my time coming or should I just stay at home now .. ?

Honestly, I'm not planning on going now just b/c my car is apart. But its never going to be very good on a weekend anyways, especially now with all the leafers(tourist driving up to see the leafs change :rolleyes: )driving around all slow. GoldRush will keep most of the LEOs in town for the festivities, but expect a unit up there sometime through out the day. With a group this size I would have to say, it will be as slow if not worse than our last run. If you plan on coming up get up here EARLY(pre 9am) or late (after 4pm) in the evening. The place i usually go during the weekends is 129 b/c it has two lanes going up so it doesn't matter if there are leafers or slow drivers. The past few weekends though it has been patrol rather heavily.

If its possible id recommend just waiting a week or two and minimize the chance of there being a problem. I didnt even realize it was gold rush weekend until i looked at the calendar and saw it was the third weekend of the month.

imo, we have 3 options:
1. stick to the day and time and just hope for the best. as was mentioned before, there might be light traffic on the roads we intend to hit anyway.
2. change the day to the following week or whatever. if we wait too long it'll be too cold and that won't be fun though.
3. keep the same date, but change the location - we could go farther north up 129 to deals gap. now THOSE are some fun roads.
I'm down to do any of the above, and will stick to the locked in day if anybody wants to join me.
thoughts?
at least post up so we can get a count of who all will be in and for when.

for those who are still down for Sunday (tomorrow):
I'm thinking noon is a nice late time for those of us who like to sleep in on Sunday.
We could meet at the Wal-Mart in Dahlonega since they won't notice a few extra cars in their parking lot way out in the spaces nobody wants to park in anyway since they're so far out.
So, noon at the walmart parking lot. Look for a black 5lug ef or shoot me a pm for my phone #.
See you there!
