And in case y'all didn't see it, there is NO excuse for that Trans-Am to be across the yellow line.

I believe the road overwhelmed some in the beginning due to the drop offs. On the other hand we tell everybody at the beginning of all these rides to stay within their own limits. I think some cut corners short to keep pace when they can see no oncoming traffic. I on the other hand don't really know what happened at the back of the line. I was in the front pack. We evidently had more seperation than I thought. I plan to be in the back this run to stop for any that have car trouble etc.

Our next run will be April 20th and going on the Dragon to Fontana Dam. That was our largest group to date with 13 cars. One of the RX-7s not shown had I belive a vacuum line problem and turned back towards home. Check out group chats at link below for more info on next ride.

April 20th might not be a good day for you to run through the Dragon. Thats the weekend of Wake the Dragon and there will be hundreds of S2000's and NSX's running through there. Of course it could also be a lot of fun, but just wanted you to know.

Appreciate the info. I think every weekend for the next 2 months seems to be taken by someone. Anyway I will tell the group and let them decide.

I would stay away if you truly want to get some descent driving in. Cops will be all over the place in anticipation of what is one of the largest events on the dragon. Makes for some crappy driving

gotta agree with above.....if you check out the THP website it looks like they will be keeping up the increased inforcement . This is a bad time of year to run the Dragon unfortunatly
