1.) Do NOT pass or drive over the center line on The Dragon!! (Possibly the most epic act of stupidity, and surely will get your a$$ kicked.)
2.) Ricer fly-bys. (Minding my own business and having some couch bag pass me, cut me off, and slam on the brakes, will result in your early demise.)
3.) Don't race thru Fontana....... We know we have nice cars..... don't screw it up for us by trying to go 80+mph thru the lots!
4.) Do NOT drive beyond your limits or try to explore where your limit is...have fun and go at a pace you feel comfortable with. This goes for all roads not just the dragon...hellbender(28) will get you too.
5.) Do not block traffic.
6.) Do not roll through stop signs, even if someone is blocking traffic.
7.) Do not tail gate or agressively "push" the driver in front of you.
8.) While on a drive, if you create a considerable gap between you and the next car and have to make a turn, make sure the driver following you can see that you made a turn in order to keep the group together.
9.) Do not make U-turns on two lane roads, which is every road at The Dragon.
10.) DO NOT CROSS THE DOUBLE YELLOW!!
11.) Do not drink at the beer swap and try to drive the dragon afterwards.
12.) If you become overwhelmed...pull over !!!!
13.) If you sign up for a drive, be on time, so others do not have to wait for you!
14.) If the group is driving too fast for your talent pull over and fall to the back of the pack. There is no shame in being smart.
15.) If the driver behind you seems to be catching up to you way too many times, pull over and let him by.
16.) If you can't see any cars in front of you, there are a lot of cars behind you, and you started in the middle of the group, pull over and let the faster drivers by. Believe it or not, this isn't a race and there are no winners crowned at the finish.
17.) If your radar detector goes off, believe it.
18.) Do not drift the Dragon. You might think you are a good driver, but really, you aren't.
19.) Do remember to thank Raul, Anna(idk if shes going), Sheila, Ron, and Jamie, and everyone else involved in setting up this awesome event for us.
20.) Don't be shy! Introduce yourself to as many people as possible!
21.) Don't go crazy when you get behind slow bikers/cars.... its going to happen... pull over and take a 5 minute break and start again!
22..)Don't be jerk with the POPO - if they caught you, they got you, be respectful and polite. WE actually got a good reputation on the Dragon with the LEO - let's keep it!
23.)There are four professional photographers on the Dragon - they will take pics of you crossing the line, we will see them, you will be disrespected -SO DON"T DO IT!
24.) Know your Biker code.. a tap on the top the their helmet means a LEO is near. Bikers like to spread the word, so keep an eye out for them.
25.) Drive with two hands except in between shifts, no "gangsta-leaning" the S on the dragon
26.) WHEN PART OF A DRIVING GROUP...DON'T TURN ON YOUR MOTHER&^%$#ING VOX ON YOUR HANDHELD RADIO
27.) Do not drive the dragon alone if possible. If something happens, no one will see you and you might be in serious trouble. Use the buddy system. (Seriously)
28.) Do not drive the dragon at night alone, and if you MUST, make sure you tell SOMEONE that you are going and when you plan on returning.
29.) Do not try to show off. The last guy that did, ended up with a tree sticking out of his hood.
30.) Do not tarnish the s2ki/s2000 reputation. We have a great reputation over there, let's keep it that way.
31.) Don't crowd the S2000 in front of you.... no need to cause a problem!
32.) It bears repeating.... DO NOT CROSS THE DOUBLE YELLOW!! DO NOT CROSS THE DOUBLE YELLOW!! DO NOT CROSS THE DOUBLE YELLOW!!
33.) PRETEND THE DOUBLE YELLOW IS A BRICK WALL! PRETEND THE DOUBLE YELLOW IS A BRICK WALL!
34.) A 9000 RPM 1st gear blast @ 6AM on Sunday morning will get you shanked
35.) When stopped by the Park Rangers provide your license and avoid drinking your beer from a paper bag while he runs your license.
36.) Remember: Park Rangers have GLOCKS too! So be chill if they pull you over during...I dunno...say a 6am 'We-thought-we-were-the-only-ones-out-here-sir' moment
37.) Stay away from the Ohio Crew..... they are nothing but trouble... mainly Looter!
38.) Crossing the yellow, or even touching it, is endangering your group and anyone coming at you. Motorcyles come at you fast, out of nowhere. they need 100% of their lane to stay alive. their knee is on the ground, their TIRES are in their own lane....but their HEAD will almost always be over the double yellow while in full lean.
