I said ONE OF the most famous roads, not THE most famous road. And it DOES rank right up there near the top along with Route 66, Highway 1, Route 40 (The National Pike), etc, etc. The only thing about the Dragon was it started out being more popular with bike enthusiasts than with car people, more than likely because the enjoyment from driving it greatly decreases with the size of the vehicle....

^^ Yeah thats how i heard of it was from my boss who is a motorcycle freak, but more and more car show up there every year. It due to the fact that of the turns and ppl love to test out there suspension. You will see cars there that can handle, thats why i sujested it.

AGREED!

I voted for the DRAGON.... but on second thought maybe the DRAGON should be a SEPARATE ENTHUSIASTS MEET! 1000 balts on the DRAGON and someone doing 20 mph cause they are overwhelmed?

BLAH!!!
When I do the DRAGON I want to enjoy every corner!

So, I'm in for a regular COBALT meet anywhere in the midwest (MIDDLE OF THE USA)....

Who is gonna plan the DRAGON meet?

I say St Louis. It is the closest to everything, we have a nice drag strip, six flags, and plenty of crazy winding roads, plus close to all kinds od strip joints for night time adult intertainment lol

I think us NW people are screwed for a meet because every thing is so far away especially WA. That is as NW as you can get.

As far as I can see it looks like East/West meets so I guess next step is locations for East meet. Tail of the dragon seems pretty good for an east location lets hear some other ideas guys.

stc (saturn tuners club) already have a meet at TOTD the first week of august. wish my project would be finished for that, but it wont. really to be fair to basically all, st louis would be most central.
