Made it home around 5pm, safe and sound... I'm just now sitting down to my PC after giving it a full detail. Thanks to everyone who came out and those who made it possible, it was a GREAT time!!

Stopped in Asheville for lunch and made it back to Charlotte about 2pm.

Car is washed and sitting in the garage. She needs a few days rest. See you in the fall if not before.

We drove through some heavy rain (cleaned the sap off the car )--arrived home around 7:45PM. Pam and I had a great time. Ken, thank you for all your work putting this together. Mike, great drive on Friday--had a blast!

Pulled in to my mini version of Fontana (Wilberforce, Ohio) at 5:00. Then, pulled right back out to meet my wife at the VFW.

Ken - you did a fantastic job organizing the event. It was great to meet the legendary S2000 owners like Bama Dave, Dan and Iris (the Canucks), Mr Bruised Banana himself, Jorge and Dave from Atlanta, and Scooter in the flesh, just to name a few of the myriad of legendary owners. We had 40 cars!!!!

The Pittsburgh contingent were a blast. Thanks for joining the OKI caravan to Fontana.

I may not see the large group again until Wake the Dragon. I missed the cutoff for S2K Days, and DBR will be right after I get back from Holiday in L.A. So, for me, it's local drives with OKI and S2000 Cincinnati.

Jamie, THE Spring Dragon event is Rock the Dragon 2017 (RTD2017). Someone else has the WTD name.

Taska & I arrived home safely around 5:30pm Sunday evening. We'd stopped into Charlottesville on the way home and enjoyed some sushi, sushimi and other fine offerings at a small joint called Kobuta I believe. No heavy rains our way home. A little spritz here & there that caused worn out wipers to occasionally screeeech and Taska's teeth to always go on edge at that noise .

Great event Ken!!! Thanks, as always!

- Dave (& Taska)
