My advice on page one should be read. If you care about your paint, use tape. If this is your first run, you NEED TO BE IN THE BACK. NO ONE will mock you for being SMART. We had a 28-car run in the fall and everyone was great, even noobs except one Fiero who went over the edge, flipped, rolled, and burned. Two people were kind enough to stay behind and help him despite his stupidity when the cops came, after we knew he was ok. Everyone else dipped and caught up together later. If you get stupid...it's your car. Have fun on your own. If you can be responsible, I'd love to ride with you.
I'll lead and/or take charge of this if no one else wants to. I've got set rules that I've run with in the past, and no one's had a problem with them. Basically, it's:
Carry a radio (if possible)
NO PASSING except on two-lane area...which is only for a short while at the begining here and there
Don't exceed your limits
Keep neccesary space
Noobs in the back
Fall out if ANYTHING doesn't feel right
Do a self-check/inspect the night before (pads, lights, tires, seat belt, fluid check)
NO STUPID DRIVING
No drifting
When you are running, you are running...not adjusting the radio with a hand on the wheel and a foot on the dead pedal
Stay alert
Traditional stop at Zaxby's after the run
I think that's all we went by, and things went smoothly.
Notes on why we go so early: Less traffic on the highway, less bikes in the mountains, less pedestrians in the mountains
Because of the gravel and cold, we probably won't have an issue with motorcycles or bicyclists or pedestrians, BUT ALWAYS BE ALERT.
