Prolly not a good idea to run on the same day as the Subaru club.
I can run the dragon anytime between Sunday 6/21 to Thursday 6/25.
What do you guys think? Probably should pick a date and stick with it so everyone can ask for the day off.

damn thats some old cars.

Poll added. Hopefully after a week we'll have enough votes to select the date that is best for the most people. I can then go to the website and add us to their calendar.
Thank you to everyone who votes.

Thank you for your support! We should have a great turnout!

voted for sunday, b/c in June I will be on my second internship, and if local, weekends will be my only days off.

Yea sunday would be best for me aswell , Im off every weekend .

friend088 · 02-05-2009, 11:17 AM

If we get a few more Sunday votes it will be official.
I figure most people are off on Sundays. We'll be leaving from Tampa early Saturday morning, June 20th.

According to website:
The least traffic on the Dragon is before 11 am and after 5 pm. Heaviest traffic is noon to 3 pm. Night riding on the Dragon can be an interesting experience.

Probably best to tackle the dragon during the day.

Yea you wont see me getting out of bed at no 8am to meet you guys up there , lol .

I went about 3 weeks ago on a sunday and passed no shit 4 cars . But it was cold out , now the summer time is a totaly diffrent story .

I have been up there a few times at night and the only people up there at night are mostly bikes running it , which is cool to sit back and listen to them .

Whatever time works out for the majority of us will work.
I'm not an early morning person. Was thinking maybe sometime in afternoon and we could have lunch afterwards somewhere and take a few pictures/videos of our cars.

Thanks to everyone who voted. Looks like Sunday is the best day for most people. I predicted it would be.
