I think the agenda will be to meet up for pics then head down the dragon and over to the skyway, and back to Fontana village. I think you'd still have fun just doing the pics, then joining the group ride down back to maryville. I might even do that, I'm not certain I can do the whole skyway yet.

I'm not sure of the plans on Friday but I don't think any of the Knox guys are rolling up then. I could be wrong?

Not sure my car is up for pushing it through all that. My passenger side rear strut is failing and rubbing pretty bad, even with the smallest bumps. I haven't had the time to replace it. Also I'm not tuned well since I capped my wastegates and currently my logging computer is down. Working like crazy to get it back up and running...almost there.

So, everyone let me know here if you plan on going or not. There is one guy meeting me from EVOXFORUMS, but that's all I know of so far (since _pg's car probably won't be ready).

I know this pain. I believe my drivers side strut is failing, which means more delays in the power build, but it does mean Bilsteins and a 1" drop all around.

Just rolled over 69,000 today too. Giggity.

I'm pretty sure both my rears are completely shot, which is why my car sits so low in the rear. I just turned over 100,000. I'm trying to put off replacing until I can get GTWorx springs and camber plates.

I now plan to ride up, take pics, ride down the dragon and depart from the group (instead of continuing to the skyway) to head home. Since we are meeting at 10, there should be no problem getting back by 12.

If I can ride up and take pics and run the dragon and be back by 12 then I am in. I will most likely stay in Knoxville Friday night, would you want meet at the normal spot and then I can follow you to the dam? If that is close for ya.

Your welcome to ride with me if you want, I doubt I will have a copilot.

By Normal spot, do you mean Starbucks? If so, we'd need to pull out of there at about 8:30.

Someone could ride with me too. That thought never occurred to me.
