    Speaking for @Clipdat if there were a chick in the driver seat: "I'd sure like to pluck her bass, if you know what I mean."

    Never knew this road existed. About 180 miles north of Atlanta. Charlotte guys?

    Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap with 318 curves in 11 miles: America’s number one motorcycle and sports car road.

    Designated US 129, the road is bordered by the Great Smoky Mountains and the Cherokee National Forest with no intersecting roads or driveways to hamper your travel. It is considered “the destination” for thousands of motorcycle and sports car fans throughout the spring, summer, and fall. Can you brave it? It’s best to be cautious as the turns are tight, but the Tail of the Dragon is guaranteed to be the ride of your life.

    Drove it in 2007 in my MINI Cooper S. Picture of the poster I got there. There's a national event each year called "MINI's on the Dragon." It's a national event, when I went there was 350 or so MINI's there. A lot of sports car clubs go there each year.

    A guy on a motorcycle ran off the side riding with his dad and died while we were there.


    Ran that route in a Lotus Esprit (at speed)

    I did the same. My MINI S had a different pulley on the supercharger to give more boast, Bora exhaust, adjustable camber plates, stiffer rear sway bar, lower and stiffer springs for suspension, lighter wheels sticker tires and a dyno tune.

    BTW saw a few Lotus Esprit's when I did track days, fun cars.
