It's time for the first big run of the summer...!

Time: Sunday, June 18th - 10:00am
Location: Home Depot - Hwy. 400 N. across from the Premium Outlet Mall in Dawson Co.

Meeting at Home Depot @ 10am or so and heading north at 10:30. Plan to cookout at the usual location, Vogel State Park ($3.00 per car fee!), intersection of Hwy. 180 & 129 N. The route is not to be advertised on here ;) In the next couple weeks I'll add your name to the list if you're bringing something...alot of stuff like ice, drinks, etc. can be purchased within minutes of the park and please bring radios (walkie-talkies) if you have them. Portable CB radios are a plus! :goodjob:

We'll discuss the route once we meet and I have credit card sized maps printed with all the roads and general landmarks labeled just in-case anyone gets seperated...we normally make several stops to re-group anyways: couple gas stations, major interesections, etc. Goood times.

She loves riding in the car and going around corners and me reving the car high, but I dont know those roads up there so I am not going to do it this go round. She sits in the back in her car seat going vroommmm vroommm in that cute lil 2 yr old sounding voice...

Im new here but I been on mountain runs before. I want to go but we have to be careful because last time I was on my way there for a mountain run, all of the 10 or more cars I was with, got pulled over for doin 45 in a 60 or 65 zone. And Forsyth County is expensive. It seems like they want to put a stop on those runs.

BUT anyways, here's a little statistic for you....i've been on those roads for 10 years...zero tickets (minus the speeding E30 southbound 400 dawson co. and he wasn't even with the group at the time) and no accidents that were any of our peoples fault...a bike slid into Nemesis and collins went rally racing a ditch but other than that no problems. knock on wood.

Its not about being careful, its about being smart. There isnt any point in exceeding the speed limit by much on the highway or other roads getting to the runs. I doubt them giving you a speeding ticket had a damn thing to do with the fact that you were going on the run, especially since the runs usually start 2 counties away!

Might be a nice little get away with the boys and I for fathers day! But I'll probably be at the end (or at least in the middle) of the pack with the little ones in the Lude. This might be a warmup for them for when we go up the the Dragons Tail in July...

I'm deffinately making the next one! Ordering Eibach sways right now and getting some AGX's soon after! How far is this from, lets say, D&B gwinnett?

I'm used to Mtn runs up in the seattle area so if this is anything like what they have I may just stay here in GA and enjoy it to the fullest.

4 quarts of oil in 175 miles! :eek:

And most likely Jason's cell didn't have service when you called. It did the same thing to me when I tried to call Nippon's phone.
