Has anyone checked to see if Adam has anything already planned for this time?

No I haven't checked with Adam. 

It's that my lady and I want to do this Saturday.  So if Adam has something planned.  We will still plan to cruise the Dargon.  Not to hurt anyones feelings.

Maybe all you sight seekers should let me be first so I don't interfere with you'll taken pictures and stuff going down the road? The way I see it the first run is for me and my car together as one. My seat belts securely holding me deep in the leather seat, the instant response of engine toque at my request to pull out of the cornering force, the low rumble of the exhaust system in a lower gear. I mean to be safe at low speed but I want to feel and remember..Then on the second run I'll stop and take some pictures and maybe see a corvette or two? he he

The dragons tail is 11 miles long and 131 turns and switch backs, it is the reason why I am bringing my bike along (on the trailer) with the vette. So I may have to do the tail with the bike and the vette.
