Made it home to Wright-Patterson AFB at around 1230. Sorry, Tim, you and Bama Dave woke me up!

Great weekend of driving. Meeting new friends, renewing friendships, and loving the Smoky Mountain region...and of course, the car we all love.

If you're in the Mid-Atlantic or the Midwest, we have tons of rallies to keep you going, until we meet again for the Dragon Fall Run!

Got home around 4:00....

Traffic on northbound I-75 was brutal... worst I've ever seen!

Solid steam of cars in both lanes from Knoxville to Berea....

We arrived home at 6:50, had to spend a few extra minutes trying to find that last fill up to make it home. We had a fantastic time, meeting new people and it was great to see some of you again after being away for 3 years. Hopefully we'll be able to make it back in the fall.

I got home at 4:45 after leaving before most everyone woke up! I was really glad I had my Birdybog Blinky hooked up when the traffic got sketchy closer to home on 75! Waze saved me from a big backup just past Atlanta. Had a great time seeing everyone. And a huge thanks to Jamie and others that mentioned the octane booster because I had trouble finding gas in N GA, and when I did it was only 87. I was glad I had the bottle I brought along.

Made it home around 1pm. Whoever was in the silverstone AP1 and the rio yellow AP2 with NC tags around 7:40 this morning on the dragon, I was the one in the blue CR. Fun morning run with no one around, I was glad I caught up with you guys! I wanted to stay to chat at the overlook, but I needed to get home... anyway, thanks for the fun

Made it home at 7:30. The traffic was hell! Backups caused by 3 accident and 1 caused by construction. Lost about 2 hours just sitting.

Plus a 'Check Engine' light.
