SE CL Meet: September 6 - 8
Several of us have been working on details for the meet and have some tentative plans to share so participants can put it on your calendar!
W H E N
We're targeting the weekend of September 6 - 8. This should give folks a little time to plan and arrange travel plans, etc. The weather should be a bit cooler for outdoor activities as well.
W H A T
We're suggesting:
- short local CL meets to form up folks who may want to drive together to the combined meet (and allow CL members who don't come to get together)
- day drives on some of the most challenging roads in the USA as well as the most scenic
- evening entertainment opportunities
- alternative daytime events for guests
W H E R E
A central location that most folks in GA, NC, AL, TN, and VA can get to (as well as other ambitious folks). We're planning on a combination Deal's Gap and Cherokee, NC event. Deal's gap is one of the most noted driving roads in the east coast. Cherokee is a small city in NC most noted for hosting a casino run by Harrah's (so those that are so inclined can do a bit of gambling in the evening if they wish).
People that don't want to do the twisty drive can go to Asheville, NC and tour the Biltmore Estate, and then meet up in Cherokee in the evening (about an hour away).
Some info on Deal's Gap.

Info on Harrah's

What's next
- Determine timing for the detailed event agenda. Most of the formal meet activites will likely take place on Saturday.
- We're contacting some of the local hotels for discount prices. If you think you're going to be able to come, please post here or PM me so we can get a count.
- We need some local participation. If you want to volunteer to organize your local area attendees AND possibly canvas for some local sponsorship, PM me
More info to follow! I hope other folks are as excited as I am about driving Deal's Gap, it's a legendary course.
We will have some safety rules to follow for the drive "on the Dragon", and will probably stagger cars in groups according to model & suspension modifications.
