Three days left!

I had some issues with codes coming up on my GS noticed over the weekend and its in the shop today getting looked at. Hopefully all will be OK for the Dragon; if not the LS will be making its first appearance .

Hmmmm I wonder if my HREs will fit on the LS... I need some more aggressive rubber for the Dragon.

Just wondering if anybody's meeting up in Atlanta on Friday like we did in 2003?

We've got fewer folks coming from ATL again this year due to HIN falling on the same weekend. I'll PM a couple of them to see what time they're heading up!

Nuum have you touched base with Lexism on SELOC? I think he's in the ATL area too and had signed up.

Two days and counting!!! Weather looks decent, only 20% chance of precip on Saturday and Sunday.


------------------------
Repeating a couple of reminders from earlier .

Please try to bring or borrow a FRS/GMRS Radio, will make your life a lot less confusing if we can talk to each other without pulling over.

ROBBINSVILLE IS A DRY COUNTY: Any adult beverages you want to consume, bring 'em yourself before you get there or drive the hour and a half to buy them once you're there.

Other packing list items to jog your memory http://www.lexusdragon.com/suggested_packing_list.html


I'm also bringing a supply of 'car ****' in the form of car magazines, a VIP car catalog, and Aristo Hyper Rev catalogs. I'll also have the 2003 Dragon DVD, the Norcal Lexus guys exhaust competition DVD / EOS meet DVD and a Junction Produce DVD. Since I don't own one, I don't have a lot of IS-specific stuff so if you do and care to share it, bring it! I'm hauling along the PS/2 (and GT4) in case the DVD player in the conference room isn't there anymore.

I don't plan on bringing my laptop this year, so if you are iffy about coming or are arriving on Saturday and need to make sure you know where to meet up with the group, PM me before Friday noon. The best place to meet the group will be at the hotel Saturday AM before 10am, or at the Tapoco Lodge for lunch. After that your chances of catching up with us are slim .

Back safe in Charlotte and the GS is here in the driveway. Record speed... I think the GT3 hit 130 at one point on the return

Post up and let us know you made it back OK, pics coming a bit later tonight / tomorrow.

Reminder to ask folks before posting 'people pics' in the forums

We got back o.k. Me and my brother really enjoyed the Dragon's and we'll be back...next year.

I've a lot of funs driving the Dragon's in the stock 3GS and enjoyed every bit of it.

A big thanks to Dave for make this event happened and well organized..

Good to see all the oid and new members.Jruhi4 from Miami, those folks from Ohio( *****,Mark, Brett...etc), you guys are funny and cool as fan...

Mike and his son from N.J

Of course, those die hard Dragon's slayer from N.C, Scott, Krista, Jeff, Jason, Tom, Will, and Collin.

Bit, good to see you again.. I will hit you up if I heading down to FL.

A shotgun ride in the Carrera with Krista was worth the whole trip... . The car is so well designed, connected to the road and a good driver... .

Brett was riding shotgun with Jeff on the GT3 and all he can say was " Insane".

Here's some pic of the GT3 coming up, followed by Dex, Krista and a bunch of IS. Sorry about the blurr picture...lol.

I'm going to leave these uploading as I go to bed... there should be about 316 photos after they finish.

Will do some more editing on them tomorrow, just wanted to get 'em up there to share so people can peek at them as they return safely and hopefully uneventfully home .

Also, it was a genuine pleasure meeting everyone. What a great bunch of people!

Good to hear, very glad you could make it down (and back safely)!

I've seen on .net that the Columbus and Cincy guys are back as well.

I don't know why because its a bit out of focus on the car and the cliff, but I really like this pic of Jeff's GT3 and Lexism's GS

Glad you guys had fun and are all back home safe and sound! Hopefully HIN and the dragon won't overlap next year so there won't be any issues with that!
