So where are we starting from?

[HectorM52]

Starting probably from the Mainstay Suites as always.

Awesome Bill cant wait..have to make sure everyone is full on gas for sure thats a long cruise..

[Tom Gedris]

Full tank of gas for a 25 mile run?? Am I missing somethin'?? This is my first time so us noobie's needs to know?? I've registered and will get hotel soon. Don't laugh when you see my '69 please. Hope to make some new buddies at the events. I can't afford to compete and take a chance on breaking, but I want to definitely watch all you guys have fun. Mine is an everyday driver with over 250,000 miles and I will be driving it to the events.

A little more than 25 miles.....depends a lot on how many times you get lost in the mountains....a full tank is a good thing.

[HectorM52]

At 6 mpg some of us will come close to running through our tanks in just that 25 miles. I know I will come close!

Also, pretty sure the Dragon itself is about 11 miles long. We went across and back last year.

The trip from Mainstay to the dragon itself is a few miles. You do the math. We'll probably drive 50+ miles. And there aren't too many gas stations along the route, so I would suggest filling up before-hand.

[Yelcamino]

On my drive to/from the Motor State Challenge I averaged just under 13 mpg in the Chevelle, so I think I'll be ok with a full tank!

[dropit69]

id have to say its alot more than 25 miles i think its 25 just to the dragon then its like 11 each way and then back to hotel..a few people with cells ran out last year..and if ya get lost on the back roads you are on your own..lol..some crazies up in them hills..

I think it was closer to 125 miles maybe further!! My wife helped a few out shuttling gas back and forth in our Tahoe! Cell reception sucks on the parkway as well.
I don,t think anybody will laugh at your Camaro. Nobody laughed at mine, at least not to my face. This is cool group of folks to hang out with!!

A guy on my motorcycle forum post videos of the dragon from last week if you guys are interested.

I wasn't going to mention names Raymond! LOL Maybe we need to stash some gas in the woods along the cruise route!!

[Bill Howell]

I may have to put Raymond's camaro on the rollback to start with so it cam make the whole trip....hahaha

[Bill Howell]

We will start at the Main Stay as usual. End up on Hwy.66, up towards the interstate. I will have everyone a detailed map and turn instructions. Also will have backroad info back into PF from the shop we have dinner at. I would say the total trip will be 125 or more. One thing this year, we will be sure everyone knows to get gas before they get on the foothills parkway or dragon. that is about 60 miles roundtrip in itself without any gas stops.

While I was at Ace Hardware today I got 2 tubs of chalk for $2. So hopefully this will work for the cones!
