Screw the Tire Iron, I'll bring some tools.

I could use a Suzuka Blue Hood and Bumper before winter sets in.

Asshat 1's passenger.....a good shot of him BTW, in addition to the best plate shot I could get to blow up....I can't read it



And Asshat 2 Driver and Passenger....not as clear as Asshat 1 but you guys can get the idea. Also Im about 90% sure his plate says AQF - 0558 if I was 100% I could run the plates and get an Name, Address, possible Telephone Number.
Nice work!

if the silverstone is AP2, can I have the rear bumper? I had an incident with a ditch a few months ago (at an HPDE of all places), and lets just say I could use a new one

Could use a front bumper too (stupid autocross cones!)

We've posted similar pics and they aren't active s2katlanta members that we know.
If you know our group, you'll know that we don't condone this driving (on the dragon or on any of our drives).

We'll be sure to make the appropriate greetings if they choose to show their face.

Thanks, and No I didn't, however I did search the ATL forum and someone already made a comment and gave a link. So I didn't want to make a new one since they were already made aware of the situation.

I think we all know that no community condones this type of driving anywhere, much less the Dragon. I don't think Mulder ATO was pointing fingers.

Nope they were both AP1's

No, I wasn't pointing fingers...... Hell that event at WTD was FAR worse yet no fingers were pointed at anyone but the freeloading roadracer that created havoc for the Ohio peeps coming down. I was just wanting to hand this to the appropriate people so that could give these douches a good ass whipping..... I am in eastern SC, too far of a drive to do it myself!

WOW! The pressure's on. I need to stay in the back to ensure I don't cross any lines. I definately don't want to be lynched. I definately understand the importance of staying in your lane.

In April 2005 for Wake the Dragon, I ran the dragon for the first time, and it was like 11pm at night. I don't recommend that for a newbie at all. But I will say one thing, in my head the only thing I thought of in the corners was "don't cross the yellow line". The Florida Crew that I was travelling with, which I don't want to mention names so I don't forget anyone, took great care of me by helping me understand the road and what not to do, well before we got there. Hats off to those who did that for me. Every group I ride with on the dragon, someone repeats the "don't cross the yellow line" saying. And I think that is a valuable part of people in this group, and no one is left on their own to make mistakes like this.

So for as much frustration that is posted in this thread for some road rash driving by two owners, there is 10 times that when it comes to helping each other, and looking out for each other.

Had it not been for those who look out for the new peoples, those who always start the runs on the radio by reminding everyone "don't cross the yellow line", and those that stop their awesome run just because they see an S2K stopped and ask if everything is okay, this group would not be the group it is and have the huge meets we do.

Newbies, don't be afraid to tell the group you are with that you are new!!!

Well said.



It is important to realize that evryone here who is driving the dragon was at one time a Newbie. We all have learned from the experiences we have had. This group is very tight and is willing to help anyone out there with any questions or issues. Newbies are encouraged to ask questions. The answers we give will keep us all safer.
Enjoy.
