[EuroTra$h]

[OneSlow5pt0]

[SiRed94]

[mushroom_toy]

Lets go this friday. How about it? :) Seriouslt though if anyone wants to go Friday let me know I have nothing to do and gas is cheap. Gas dropped another 12% today on the market. Lowest drop in 8 years!!!

[puregroove]

Depending on the day, I may be interested, as well. :goodjob:

[mushroom_toy]

--can't do Friday. I'll be working. :fire:

[SiRed94]

I think ppl need a little more notice than 2 days. Lol

[golf_mk2]

i wish i could go... :(

[mushroom_toy]

I know that....but I want something to do on Friday as well.

[tdurr]

I think ppl need a little more notice than 2 days. Lol

true story....

give a date and time... and ill try. ill prob be short on gas money...

[87 Turbo II]

give me a date/time, and more detailed location than "blood mountain" as I have no idea where that is. Us Mazda guys always run up at Pine Mountain for the sections without speed limits, but the last two times we went it rained so we had to only do 80-90-ish :(.

Anyway, I'd like to go, but I need to know the details before i can confirm weather or not I WILL go.

P.S., nothing too crazy. I have a featherlight car on 205s with a live axle in the rear, so let's keep the pace at a comfortable cruise, the 80-90 I used to do in the wet was in the TII FC with 4-wheel steering, 225s all around, and a 4-way independent suspension................ and I crashed that car. Let's not overdo these old school machines.

i have a 91 can i go? lol im not that old skool

Nowhere near old school.

But this is the OPs doings. If he's cool with it, by all means join in. Later, QD.

[mushroom_toy]

sorry dude but weekends are almost ALWAYS days that people already have off. You can't declare them off limits because they're the frakin' weekends! WeekDAYS are too busy for most.

[tdurr]

[tdurr]

[87 Turbo II]

Sp where is blood mountain again. And what time on Feb 22?

[OneSlow5pt0]

Sp where is blood mountain again. And what time on Feb 22?

right by blairsville,which is off 575/76/515.

[tdurr]

the time doesnt matter for me, what time do yall think would be best?

[87 Turbo II]

1 or 2 ish are good times of the day. People can sleep in, and this time of year you get 5 nices hours of daylight. First 2 hours after 2:00 everyone just hangs out, then the actual run, or sets of runs, then chill out a bit more, take pics in the "golden hour" of twighlight, then everyone heads out into the night after possibly one more run. Also, we need a place specifically to meet. Like if this mountain has a lookout area with a little parking lot, or by a store or shop near the bottom. I've never been so I don't know these things.

x2. I guess ill pull up blood mountain on google later and see if i can find some spots unless mr pickels wants to tell us a good spot since he lives close to there.

[OneSlow5pt0]

thiers a lookout on the mountain when ur going up...bout 20 car parkinglot.

is mr. pickels me? i dont live there.

[Marta Mike]

the last run i went on we went up through helen and ran a mountain, damn cant member the name for the life of me but it was mad curvy and at the top there was a lookout. But im still game although i sold my old skool-lol

[speedminded]

I wrote the most descriptive mountain run route available turn by turn, including mileage and a map all in PDF format...but only certain people are allowed to have it, haha!


Sp where is blood mountain again. And what time on Feb 22?
right by blairsville,which is off 575/76/515.Between Dahlonega, Cleveland, & Blairsville. Hwy. 129/19/11 between Cleveland & Blairsville goes over Blood Mtn. Google Map "Turners Corner, Ga" and head north from their towards Blairsville.

But im still game although i sold my old skool-lolA lookout. At the top? Strange. I can only think of 4 roads that pertains to with about 8 lookouts within 5 miles of there. :tongue:

[tdurr]

So i dont think this is gonna happen... not enough ppl...

[Marta Mike]

IM GOING REGARDLESS LOL

[tdurr]

really? where do u stay? i kno some ppl in ASAP wanted to go, but if it was only gonna be like 5 ppl they didnt wanna go... go in the asap club WL and see wuts up over there.

[puregroove]

hmmm...22nd. 1 or 2ish... That's this Sunday. I'm staying posted. I may be in.

[tdurr]

The only thing we are missing is a pre-meeting point. I was gonna get one but i dont think ill have gas to get up there and back lol. So yea.... If u guys wanna meet somewhere in atl(like the V LOL) and then head to the mtns in a crew so everyone doesnt have to meet in an area they dont kno, im sure it would work out.
